Please join us in voting for Dave Somers for Snohomish County Council. We’ve always been Republicans, but we cannot support Jeff Sax’s efforts to pave over and fill in farmland in the Snohomish Valley floodplain to enable Harvey Airfield to expand in to a major reliever airport for Sea-Tac.
What does this bring city residents? The ability for Harvey Airfield to significantly increase the size and number of aircraft that will be flying over homes day and night. Do city residents really want a reliever airport for Sea-Tac in their back yard? Do city residents want to pay for sewer services here and future flood damage repairs?
What does this bring floodplain residents and farms? Worse flooding in Monroe, Snohomish, and Everett. You do not fill 200 acres in the floodplain without consequence.
Jeff Sax and his reckless and irresponsible land use decisions need to be replaced. Vote to save our farms. Vote for Dave Somers.
