Help Save Dinosaur Ridge!!!

Dinosaur Ridge Needs Your Help

Dinosaur Ridge, a tourist attraction where the first specimen of Stegosaurus was found is under threat to become a car dealership. I implore everyone, especially Colorado natives, to express their disdain with the commissioners who will vote on whether to approve the dealership. Here's the post from the Facebook page 'Save Dinosaur Ridge':

We need all of the commissioners getting letters -- as many as possible -- saying that we do NOT want car dealerships at Dinosaur Ridge. The email can be simple and straight forward. You can just say whatever is in your heart, in a civil way. Help the Commissioners hear the message:VOTE NO on the re-zoning to allow a car dealership at the intersection of Alameda and C-470.
Here are the contacts to write to:
Libby Szabo, District 1 Commissioner: commish1@jeffco.us
Casey Tighe, District 2 Commissioner: commish2@jeffco.us
Donald Rosier, District 3 Commissioner: commish3@jeffco.us
Please cc the Case Manager, Heather Gutherless, Hgutherl@jeffco.us

These links will help you know what district you live in, so that you can contact the commissioner who represents you.

It is fine to contact all three of them, but they are most interested in hearing from citizens inside their own districts:
