I urge you to vote NO on HB 299/SB 354, the "Blue Ribbon Projects" bill.

To [Decision Maker],

I am writing to urge you to vote NO on HB 299/SB 354, the "Blue Ribbon Projects" bill.

This bill undermines local planning, inducing sprawling development, and creates long-term risks for water resources and infrastructure. This bill also jeopardizes agricultural and rural lands by opening them up to unplanned, sprawl development. Finally, this bill targets the local planning process, which is set up to allow for measured, reasonable, and thoughtful decisions. Large-scale development proposals should not move forward without meaningful local review, comprehensive planning, and public participation.

Sector planning is better suited for large-scale development, and already exists. If there is truly a need to create a planning process for 10,000-acre projects, it makes more sense to update the Sector planning process to allow projects of 10,000 acres (versus the current 15,000-acre threshold) to qualify, rather than create a new, destructive, and entirely unnecessary approval path that cuts out elected officials and public participation.

Please vote NO on HB 299/SB 354 when it comes before you for a vote.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
