Hey, let's be careful so that private interests aren't allowed to dominate public policy!

As per the Olympian's editorial (9 July):

"Members of the public can gnaw on Olympia's proposed noise ordinance amendment and offer additional comment at a forum scheduled for 2 to 3:30 p.m. Aug. 6 at The Washington Center for the Performing Arts, 512 Washington St. S.E. It's scheduled during the afternoon because city officials want the forum to be available to bar employees, who work nights."

A group of Olympians have been talking in various forums about getting together to organize a Public Financing Initiative in the City of Olympia. Enough people are excited about it that we want to go ahead and form a planning group.

We'll be meeting at noon on Sunday, March 2nd at 1845 Centerwood Dr. SE.

This will be a strategy meeting, and we'll be having volunteer meetings in the future if you're interested in helping us get signatures.

Let's Level The Playing Field!
