6. Is it worth having the county fight lengthy lawsuits that will surely ensue if present plans are carried through?
If the answer to any of the above is “no,” I would respectfully urge the Board of Supervisors to abuidon their present course of action, and to seek an alternate site and/or overall waste management plan. Surely, there must be a better and less costly solution to this important environmental problem.
In closing, I would like to paraphrase an old world poem:
111 lares the land, to hastening ills a prey
Where trash accumulates and wastes decay:
Supervisors may flourish or may fade,
A breath could make them as a breath has made;
But a clean land, their county’s pride
When once destroyed can never be revived.
