The <br />Planning Commission denied the application; the County <br />Commissioners did not get a chance to vote on the matte;^ because <br />Sterling withdrew its application because it was not prepared <br />(only to be refiled two days later and then withdrawn a~~ain at a <br />later date); and the City Planning Commission denied th~a <br />application. Now we are back at the Planning Commission again <br />because Sterling is now prepared to present its case. liow many <br />times can Sterling submit and withdraw its application )~efore it <br />becomes financially impossible for the surrounding homeowners to <br />fight it? <br />Purchasing our home in November, 1987 was a big financial <br />' step for us and having to put out the amount of money we have to <br />fight Sterling has been a real burden. We feel we need to fight <br />this application in order to keep the quality of life wEa thought <br />' we were getting when we bought our property and to save the value <br />of our property. To date, we have spent in excess of $:L,000 for <br />attorney's fees and expert fees and now have additional <br />attorney's fees and costs of approximately $300. <br />We again urge you to deny the application for mining in this <br />area and ask for your support in helping us stop this t}ape of <br />' frivolous abuse of the system. <br />Sincerely,I~~-,~~~ <br />Dav' L. Slatten <br />' Gingerat <br /> <br />
