Editor,
Commissioners Johnson, Wadsworth, Doney and Christopher raised our administrative fee from $2.65 per acre to $9 per acre to hire another attorney. The FJBC has a retained attorney paid annually. There is no extra cost for this. Please pay the $6.35 increase in protest. It will be set aside for 90 days (they can't use it) then, if we succeed in removing these four commissioners from their positions the money may be returned to you.
The Western Montana Water Users Association office, located at 203 N. Main in St. Ignatius between Mission Valley Properties Realty and the TeePee Bar, will be open Friday, Nov. 15 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturday Nov. 16 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The phone number is (406) 745-9287.
Recall petitions for the four commissioners will be available for signing. Time is of the essence. Please bring your spouse and sign together.
Tax protest forms will be available for Lake, Sanders, and Missoula counties. If you have already paid your taxes in November you can still send in a protest. If you are still undecided or confused about the referendum ballot or the Compact and Water Use Agreement, factual information will be available.
United we stand, divided we fall.
