We do not oppose growth—John Price

Daily Camera, Boulder, Colorado
POSTED:   04/27/2015 07:47:16 PM

[Editor’s Note:  John Price is one of five petitioners for an initiative entitled “Development Shall Pay Its Own Way.”]

In the baldest misrepresentation I have seen in the Daily Camera, the April 23 lead article (“Voters may join development debate”) has a sub-headline “Growth opponents propose pair of charter amendments,” and in the first sentence …”growth opponents on Wednesday announced….” Both are false. We do not oppose growth, we do not oppose development. We request more stringent controls; development exceeds what we feel is desirable. Now opponents of our proposals can QUOTE the Camera as a source for these misstatements.
