Leading advocates in the Rivers Coalition will sort out the recent myriad developments (and lack of same) regarding the "river situation" at the general membership meeting May 29.
Citizens concerned about the continuing pollution and degradation of the estuary will want to be on hand, at 11 a.m. at Stuart City Hall.
Public participation has never been needed more as really significant steps to stop the discharges from inland fail to materialize.
While many claim we must be satisfied with taking "baby steps" and sit though years of more studies, one leader suggested we take adult steps. "Experts close to the issues know that the only real solution is to create a flowway south from Lake Okeechobee, so let's keep the concept up front and move ahead," he said. "We have to overcome the tremendously rich and powerful status quo forces."
Once again, we'll keep the light on for you.
All concerned citizens are welcome, as always. There's plenty of free parking and even coffee and donuts will await you.
