BLAINE COMP PLAN RUSE

October 2 letter to Whatcom County:

The Northern Light article about the Blaine Comprehensive Plan observes that the meeting was attended by Blaine and Birch Bay residents. It does not mention that it was standing room only, packed with opponents of the plan, in particular the West Blaine Urban Growth Area  (UGA Swap) and the proposed annexation of Birch Point under the ruse of the fraudulent Reduction of City Limits Prop 7. It does not mention the self-dealing by Blaine officials involved in producing this plan who have direct financial conflicts of interest, making the plan illegal under Washington State law. These issues were raised emphatically, which you'd never know reading TNL.

Letter to County Prosecutor
