KDP has been working for some time to negotiate a power purchase
agreement, and now they have only a few weeks left to pull it off.
Don’t you think they will call on their friends with money and influence
to put pressure on Xcel to sign on?
Staff at the Mayor's office also claim that emissions from the Burner will be no more
problematic than exhaust emissions from 24 cars over the course of a year. This is a
myth, and it’s a great example of how people can mistake a "sound byte" for the truth. If
the Mayor’s staff dig deeper, they will find that while the Burner emissions and exhaust from 24
cars may be comparable by weight, the content is decidedly different.
Are you outraged that the Mayor seems to be ignoring the messages from more than 700
people in the community?
Are you outraged by the fact that elected officials who should be looking out for your interests
are still supporting the Midtown Burner?
IF YOU’RE OUTRAGED,
IT'S TIME TO LET THE MAYOR AND OTHERS KNOW!
