City Councilmembers have refused to speak to us about the project
due to pending litigation. They may believe that if they take a
stand in legislating against this massive development, the developer
may try to sue the City. What they may not know is how many people
oppose this project as it stands. By emailing,
calling or writing to your elected officials, you can help
make a difference for the North Shore.
