Letter: Knife River bullies Clark County

By Scott Golphenee, VANCOUVER

Thank you, Connie Bushnell, for listening to our concerns as neighbors of Clark County, concerning the Knife River Cement Batch Plant and “spot zoning” (“Speak up against batch plant,” “Our Readers’ Views,” Feb. 12). This kind of zoning can approve anything anywhere. We’re having this conversation because the zoning was changed from light industrial to railroad industrial. Knife River, by bullying their way into Clark County, has created a toxic environment politically and possibly environmentally.

Knife River can’t railroad their way into our backyards.
