This week, Moab City Council were tied 2 - 2 (for: Stucki & Sweeten, against: Bailey & Bauman) on the vote regarding pre-annexation of the Lionsback area currently 'owned' by the State Institutional & Trust Lands - SITLA. The purpose of the annexation is to facilitate the building of what is planned to be a Huge resort - right up on the Sandflats Road, heading up to the World-famous Slickrock Bike Trail. The tie-breaking vote on this ill-placed development was our Mayor himself, Happy Dave Sakrison. I am learning how to use this blog and will upload the 26 page pre-annexation agreement that our City is Bending Over Backwards to support - a ridiculous idea, building on Extremely Sensitive Lands.
We need to let our voices be heard on this subject! There is a petition online at www.ipetitions.com/lionsback. Please take the time to write here about this issue and also tell Moab City how you feel!
