Yucca Valley Town Council Votes on Wal-Mart Environmental Impact Report (EIR) - May 22, 2008

Dear MBCA Members and Friends,

Please attend the Yucca Valley Town Council meeting on Thursday, May 22, 2008, at 6:00 p.m. when the Town Council votes on the Wal-Mart Environmental Impact Report (EIR).

Conservationists fault the EIR for being incomplete, out-of-date and subjecting local businesses to ruin.

In addition, big-box stores like Wal-Mart are contrary to the Town General Plan that specifies the protection of the Town's rural character.

Please attend this meeting and let your voice be heard.
