[Occupymendocino] Fwd: [OPC] Hare Creek Mall Mitigated Negative Declaration appeal

[agnes at mcn.org]

hearing at Dederick hall the City Council may say No. And in that case the
Project Petitioners may appeal to the Coastal Commission, which will cost
them $900.00. The overwhelming sentiment was against the Grocery Store
outlet and their non-union shop and minimum wage jobs.
