No to new, expanded generator use
 

Do not allow generators to be used more than they already are! It pollutes our area injuring the wildlife and nature as well as compromises the safety of those of us who live here. It is a short-sited and inefficient band-aid that cares more about timelines and money than actually addressing the problem so that the community it affects can thrive.
