Catherine Crockett
Dear All,
If you’re planning to attend the Thursday, July 13th Coastal Commission meeting, please plan on arriving by 9:30 am instead of 1:00 pm.
The Coastal Commission needs to know that you support their settlement with Cemex to shut down the sand mining operation in Marina.
T-shirts and signs will be provided. Campus parking fees will be in effect. Carpooling, biking, and walking are highly recommended.
Thursday, July 13, 9:30 AM
CSUMB World Theater

Meeting Agenda: https://www.coastal.ca.gov/meetings/agenda/#/2017/7 (see Agenda Item 22)
Talking Points:
- Tell the Commissioners that you support the agreement with Cemex.
· Thank the Commission for taking up such an important issue.
· Tell them what the erosion of our beach and coastline means to you.
- Point out that there is overwhelming scientific evidence that the mine is causing coastal erosion. Cemex, despite years of knowing of the community’s concerns, has not provided one report proving otherwise.

Subject: Time change for Coastal Commission Meeting tomorrow
Sorry for the late notice, but we are now asking people to show up at 9:30 am instead of 1:00 pm. We will try to bring some coffee.
We thought the agenda item would be coming up after 1pm, but just learned that the entire agenda will move more quickly than we thought. Coastal Commission agenda items do not have set times for hearings, so guessing when an item will be heard is difficult.
