Short Description of Activity

Attended Ridgway Town Council meeting (on agenda) to discuss Council’s support of and letter re: GMUG Community Conservation Proposal and suggested comments related to the released GMUG Working Draft

Reflection/Evaluation

Council is super supportive of the Community Conservation Proposal and shared some of our concerns re: the Working Draft of the forest plan revision. I never was able to locate the Ridgway Council’s comments in the GMUG reading room and I wonder if cooperating agency comments are not listed there??? Several Broads came to support Robyn in her presentation and clapped when Council agreed to emphasize their support for additional wilderness recommendations in Ouray County
