First Community-wide Meeting
August 7, 2008 Over 100 citizens from the NFWMLTF area packed the East Regional Library meeting room for the first combined meeting about a community gas lease. Task Force Co-chairs, Glenn Neasbitt and Mike Dean, began by presenting the Task Force's purpose and intentions in negotiating a lease on behalf of the community and why community support and cohesiveness is so important to the total effort. The meeting ran long as numerous questions were asked and answered. But before leaving, most attendees signed a Letter of Intent to indicate their participation in the community lease.
