ACTION ALERT!
Please write our commissioners and thank them for voting to consider bringing back LAMP, but let them know more funding for land acquisition is needed than $370,000 per year. We need to maximize state matching funds by increasing that allotment to $500,000. Let all of our commissioners know why funding LAMP is important to you.
