Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

UPDATE-

Gazette editor responds to letters received saying that she had no knowledge of this photo. She feels she has been a staunch ally for the beavers and would never delay information because of an election. While acknowledging her genuine surprise at the implication, Worth A Dam maintains that the photo was brought to the office on the 28th, and scanned and emailed to the Gazette on the 30th. Linda Meza’s column that discussed the photo was received on the 29th with assurance that it would be published on Sunday, which it was not. I sent three subsequent emails referencing the photo and received no response. It is possible that there is a massive misunderstanding here, and that we are all reporting our experiences accurately. I do know that I have valued the Gazette’s interest in the Beaver story and considered it an ally in the past. 

Letter to the Editor:

Sunday’s Gazette ran the teeth-clenching story of the historic photo which proves that the emergency bank stabilization project was unnecessary. This 1999 picture shows an obvious footing to the wall and no bank at all. The allegation of impending danger from “separation of the bank from the wall” was meaningless. The Gazette has been aware of this photo since October 28th when it was discovered. The story was circulated on the Worth A Dam website and Bay City News on October 30th. Apparently the paper made a deliberate and incomprehensible decision to hold this revelation until after the election. Now that our incumbents are safely re-seated, we can discuss the lies that got them back into office.

The voters of Martinez should be very disappointed by this delay.
