Mendocino County Verifies Signatures <br><br>Ordinance seeks to reassert our inalienable rights to protect water<br>
with a Fracking Ban on November Ballot<br><br><br><br>The Community Rights Network of Mendocino County has placed an ordinance on the November ballot that asserts Mendocino County has the right to protect its water from fracking. <br>
<br>The Community Rights Network gathered almost double the signatures needed to qualify for the ballot in just 35 days so voters can make the final decision in November. The Board of Supervisors voted to approve the measure for the ballot.<br>
<br>.Measure S will establish a Community Bill of Rights for the people and<br>natural environment of Mendocino County new civil, political, and<br>environmental rights., all built on the right of local, community<br>self-government These include the right to live in a healthy and safe<br>
ecosystem and the right to protect local water from danger. In order to<br>uphold and protect those rights, the initiative bans all fracking related<br>activities within the County including the transportation of fracking<br>
fluids, and the use of local water for fracking. <br><br>Measure S states that Mendocino County citizens have the right to safeguard the county's water both on and beneath the Earth's surface by banning fracking in Mendocino County. It says that Mendocino County citizens have the duty to ensure that local water is safeguarded by decisions made by local people.<br>
<br>Measure S elevates the rights of the people of Mendocino back where they belong, above the claimed "rights" of corporations and state agencies<br>that enable fracking corporations to profit from the destruction of<br>
</div></div>
local ecosystems and to harm residents and communities<font color="#ff4732">(need period here)</font><div><br><br>California and Mendocino County are both in emergency drought status and Measure S will protect our water from being used and polluted by the highly controversial natural gas extraction process known as fracking. <br>
<br>Fracking places a toxic mix of largely unknown chemicals into the earth that has leaked into the water supply of many communities on the East Coast, Colorado and Texas.<br><br>If Measure S passes, Mendocino County will join 170 other communities in the U.S. that have passed community rights ordinances against corporate harm to their ecosystems.<br>
