Judy and I are hosting a fundraiser Saturday afternoon for Mark Masteller, candidate for Mat-Su Borough Mayor.
People are ready for change. The administration of Larry DeVilbiss has been rife with ineptitude. He is all too ready to sell out our kids' and grandkids' futures for one unsustainable project after another. One ferry boast-like idea after another. One more move to cut off citizens' access to government after another.
As The Frontiersman pointed out recently, The "Borough Mayor Candidates {Are] Miles Apart."
They are.
Larry DeVilbiss wanted to build a giant, coal-fired power plant right on the southeastern edge of Palmer. Its belching smoke would have been the first thing people would see approaching the Mat-Su Valley from Eklutna and the Knik River bridges, coming into one of the most beautiful vistas in the world. Talk about lack of vision.
That project was thwarted by common sense. It didn't stop Larry, though. Now he's pushing for a huge coal mine on the other side of Palmer. As a more sensible mayor wrote about this loony project in The Frontiersman, the mine's ways to transport the coal through the core of the Valley's residential areas borders on insanity.
Come meet the sane candidate for Borough Mayor at our place Saturday
