Unfortunately, opponents of the project have launched a new campaign of misinformation and political pressure targeting the Governor and other elected officials. We are confident that the DEP professionals will evaluate the project based on the merits, law and science; however, factual inaccuracies must be corrected. Our project is the sensible, environmentally sound and privately funded effort that can protect a treasured resource and historic community. At the following link you will find a letter sent to the Governor, outlining the merits of the project and addressing the most common misconceptions. We believe that both elected officials and all Nantucket residents should have access to this information, allowing them to make an informed choice. https://gallery.mailchimp.com/8a2712578e80cd6637baedaf4/files/Letter_to_Governor.pdf We encourage you to share this letter with family and friends, direct them to the SBPF website http://sconsetbeach.org for more information and ask them to follow us on Facebook and Twitter to stay apprised of the most recent project news. In addition, we hope to expand our list of cosigners to include the many others we know support our project and plan to send a supplementary list to the governor and others. If you would like to become a co-signer, simply send a reply email with your name(s) as you would like them to appear. Thank you for your interest.
