I stand with the Tarboo Ridge Coalition in resisting the proposed gun range. The natural environment and public
safety should be paramount in this regard. Not private enterprise profit and military preparedness at the
expense of peaceful citizens who live in the Tarboo Ridge wilderness area. These individuals live there because
they can celebrate a safe, sane, natural environment in which they can live, raise families (including pets),
operate businesses and enjoy the beautiful lake and surrounding wilderness.
Furthermore, noisy gun ranges like the one proposed impacts wildlife, livestock, and people. If fouls the
environment with noise, traffic, and unnecessary pollution. It is a stretch for me to even relate to a recreational
shooting facility because I have never wanted to own a gun or rifle and do not hunt. A recreational shooting
facility (gun range really, right?) near a placid lake is anathema. The least you could do is to locate the facility
500 yards from any lake, stream, watershed and of course, it needs to be indoors.
Hours of operation must also be restricted and enforced 365 days of the year.
It could be your backyard or your child or pet that is negatively affected by this facility. The funds going in to this
facility can better be used for things to enhance our pristine northwest environment, not destroy it.
