Lakewood CO Prairie Dog Action!

Join us to make a difference! It's time for you to take action!
Next Monday, the tenth, there will be a Lakewood city council meeting at 480 S Allison Pkwy Lakewood, CO 80226. I ask anyone who has free time from 7:00-9:00 on the tenth to come to the meeting. Also I would like to invite you to dinner at Atlanta Bread (7740 W Alameda Ave # E, Lakewood, CO) from 5:30-9:00 that same day, to discuss what we are going to say in the meeting that would be most helpful to the prairie dogs.  Atlanta Bread is an easy walking distance from the city council meeting.

Here are some things that we might want to think about saying at the city council meeting:

  • Building an (extra) fence bordering the Windsor so they have no reason to complain if the prairie dogs come back.
  • Asking if there is any place in Lakewood for the Longmont prairie dogs.
  • Ensuring that no prairie dogs ever get killed in the Bear Creek Greenbelt.
  • Insisting on a public comment opportunity before killing any prairie dogs in Lakewood.
  • Celebrating Lakewood prairie dog day (February 2, 2013) with a focus on prairie dog protection.
  • Does the city have any funding for protection or education about prairie dogs?
Please leave a comment below if you plan to come to the dinner and city council meeting so we know how many to expect.
