Vandalism – 5th District Supervisor Race

Notice yellow stickers on Bruce McPherson’s campaign signs?  Looks like someone has vandalized a ton of them. The stickers state a known fact: that Bruce was a republican. Is this good, bad or neither?

In The News: Santa Cruz County authorities cite concerns with outdoor marijuana plantations

Looks like some folks growing marijuana around Boulder Creek are creating a problem… not because they are growing marijuana, but because they are tearing down the forest, creating fire hazards, moving dirt into waterways and fouling fish habitat.

From the article:

“Firefighters are there to check for fire safety.

“When I get out of the truck, the first thing I say is, ‘As far as I’m concerned, this is a vineyard,'” he said.

If trees are cut down and the land is converted to a marijuana grow or any other use, the owner needs a timberland conversion permit, according to Cal Fire.”
