Heavy lifting

I told the City Council when members voted no on the fracking ban, industry would start attacking us. So this is what industry and a couple of mineral owners have stooped to.

Per their website, Adam Briggle and Sharon Wilson are working with “Russia,” lies stating that the ban is for drilling when it is for fracking, a Denton Chamber of Commerce using taxpayer money to attack residents with lies and false statements — and this is just recently. I can hardly wait to see what we will be accused of in October.

The city is going to have to eventually deal with this problem of vested right. I wish we could have done this as a community with the council and mayor fully supporting us.

It seems the Denton Drilling Awareness Group and FFD is having to do the heavy lifting because of the city’s failure to address the problem of fracking close to schools, playgrounds and hospitals.

DAG and FFD are being grossly out spent in our campaign and will not stoop to lying. If we lose the vote and fracking is allowed to continue in Denton, it will be a sad day.

Cathy McMullen,

Denton
