RALLY AND CANVASS
Sunday, September 17 4-6PM
Oakland Madrona Park
3114 S Madison, Tacoma
Join 350 Tacoma for a short rally featuring inspiring speakers, followed by a brief training with tips for effective door to door canvassing.
From 5-6pm we will form small groups and head out into the neighborhood to leave fliers and chat with our neighbors to make sure they know about the planned mega warehouse, how it might impact us, and provide ways to take action.
All are welcome!
We will have snacks!
Please share this event & invite your friends!
To officially endorse the Stop the Mega Warehouse Campaign, add your individual or organizational info here: https://forms.gle/79nnJRZLgZ1VyixX9
Background on the mega warehouse:
The City of Tacoma permitted a 2.5 million square foot warehouse in South Tacoma for Bridge Point LLC. This mega warehouse could mean up to 12,000 vehicle trips per day through neighborhoods that already experience higher levels of pollution and serious health impacts.
Over 100 acres of greenspace above an aquifer recharge zone will be paved, potentially causing long term damage to our water supply, less tree canopy and displacement of wildlife. There is also concern that the type of jobs typically associated with large warehouses will not be union or living wage positions.
City of Tacoma gave this project a Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance, which is being appealed by 350 Tacoma and the South Tacoma Neighborhood Council. The City has also failed to conduct a Health Impact assessment.

From Tacoma for All: The landlord lobby knows our Tenant Bill of Rights is on track to win and are now pushing City Council to pass a watered-down alternative to take the wind out of our sails.
