[Green] Wetland destruction

[Rebecca Phillips]

Sarah Arnold (wife of Nick and affiliated with Clutch MOV) has agreed to speak with Chris Bender of DaVinci's today. My first thought is to do nothing until we hear from Sarah--if we're lucky, just knowing that public sentiment is already against the plan before it even goes public might dissuade a small business owner from doing something so stupid.

Thanks, Vic.

To whom do we send our comments on this idea--owners of Davinci's, others? We could mention the idea of a boycott of their restaurant.
