Local 20/20 (Port Townsend, Jefferson County, WA)

Hi Folks, I am new here. My name is Roderick Wilde and I am the Director of Port Townsend based Citizens for Rideable Communities (CRC), www.rideablecommunities.org. I would like to see if there is any interest in lobbying the local City government to become a member of The Puget Sound Clean Cities Coalition, www.pugetsoundcleancities.org. For those of you not familar with this organization here is their statement from their home page: "The Puget Sound Clean Cities Coalition (PSCCC) is a voluntary, public/private partnership that works to advance the region's environmental and public health, energy security and economic development by promoting policies and practices that reduce petroleum consumption in transportation." I am sure that many of you who are reading this are currently using petroleum products in their daily life. There will come a time when you will not be able to afford to have many of these things in your life. I personally feel this is a very good organization to support. So far Seattle, Kirkland, Olympia, Tacoma, Lacey and Everett are members as well as Jefferson County Transit. I would love to hear your thoughts. We at CRC just joined.
