F-35 Rally and City Council Public Hearing

Past event
Oct 7, 2013, 6:30 to 7:30 PM

Important: There is a change of plans for Monday, October 7th.

The City Council has removed the resolution to bar the F-35 basing from the agenda. The Council President Joan Shannon cited the need for the City to have public officials liability insurance before taking up the issue. Given the immense harm the F-35 basing will cause, the City's legal and moral liability is very large. President Shannon promised to take up the F-35 resolution as soon as possible.

The October 7th Rally at City Hall is still on!

New Time: 6:30 - 7:00 - Rally for People Over Planes
City Council Public Hearing: 7:30 p.m.
Location: Burlington City Hall

We need to tell the Burlington City Council that it must Act to Bar the Basing this Month. The Air Force 30-day review period of the preliminary basing decision began Oct. 4.

The Resolution Must Be Put Back on the City Council Agenda this Month!

Many members of the City Council have been seriously considering the many harms the basing presents and have favorably responded to our call to bar the basing. The public's response has been similar. Let's keep things moving in this positive direction!

The resolution to bar the basing is the
best chance for us to stop this disastrous plan.

Bring friends, neighbors, and anyone else you can to stand up for people over planes. Contact Burlington City Councilors
now to ask them to do the right thing and take a stand against sacrificing over 8,000 residents in airport neighborhoods to this plane and to stand against the backwards priorities the F-35 basing supports.
