Our Purpose

To keep our residents safe and provide a healthy and clean environment for our children and families to thrive and grow. Our group of local residents is not against business or promotion of business; our position is to make industry accountable for their choices, in that polluting industry be placed responsibly and not in such close proximity to our neighborhoods, residents, schools, playgrounds, and village centers. We stand for the health, safety and well-being of our community and strive to diminish any threats to our quality of life. Our goal is to protect our health and live in a community where our families are protected from noise, odor, and dust; giving us a natural healthy environment. With support from our community, we know we can stand up to toxic pollution and protect our community.
