I do not know if <br />the project will do any harm or not, but at present I do not believe that the <br />possibility of further harm is worth the risk. <br />I do know that the work on the Oslo Boat Ramp is using a lot of Staff time and <br />County resources, which I believe can be better utilized doing something that we <br />know will be positive for the Lagoon. <br />My hope is that the Board will support tabling the project for three to five years <br />until we know more about the needs of the Lagoon, that we are more certain that <br />the project will not harm the Lagoon and the Lagoon is in better health. <br />Thank you. <br />102 <br />
