HeraldNet Letters: We must stop explosive growth

HeraldNet: We must stop explosive growth:
"We must stop explosive growth

Marysville plans on adding 26,000 more residents and 14,600 new workers by 2025. As we all know from experience, no new freeway access points will be built, and there will be no meaningful traffic improvements. Assuming each new resident is part of a two-parent, two-child family, the 26,000 additional residents equals 13,000 more cars. Every new worker will most likely add a car, so the total number of new cars clogging up our already congested roads will be 27,600 !"



The letter goes on to propose that people contact the Marysville Council on this issue.

We need to write some letters of our own.
