Editor’s Note: First Neil, they emailed me tonight and asked me to put this on the blog. I’m not going out and purposely soliciting anti-Derry material. Second, for all the readers, the information below is in response to the letter sent to Yucca Mesa by Supervisor Derry: NoXXX On a side note, the last time I received a press release from the Third District I swore the next time I received such a mess I was going to print it out, circle all the errors in red, and send it back to them. I’m very tempted to do that with this letter. Do you not have a clue what the proper format for a letter is?
Coalition Response to Neil Derry Letter Denying Yucca Mesa MAC
August 8, 2010
Supervisor Derry has obviously received misinformation about Yucca Mesa’s issues.
The Coalition NEVER said a Municipal Advisory Council would prevent encroachment! While a Municipal Advisory Council is not full protection from the Town of Yucca Valley to include the Community of Yucca Mesa in their Sphere of Influence with eventual annexation, the Joshua Tree Municipal Advisory Council (MAC) has been in existence for over 15 years and their MAC was influential in deterring Yucca Valley from attempting to annex them. It is working for them, why not give it a try in Yucca Mesa?
