Dear Madam Mayor and McCall City Council,
We are unable to have an Idaho Conservation League staff member attend the September
13th City Council meeting, but I hope you consider these comments.
Our members and supporters who reside in McCall have been urging our organization to
contact you in regards to the Midas Gold request of a draft Community Benefit Agreement
which is on the Council September 13, 2018 agenda.
At ICL, we have followed the Midas Gold project for many years, and feel it is in the City's best
interest to not sign any agreement until the estimated environmental costs of the project are
actually known. When the opportunity presents itself to review the final Environmental Impact
Statement, we urge the City to seek feedback from McCall residents and business owners to
identify the potential future impacts of your community. Action based on incomplete
information is premature.
Sincerely,
Lana Weber, Community Engagement Associate
Idaho Conservation League
