Policy campaign

The clean-water bond campaign, with the river damage, public vote, and restoration payoff laid out in plain English.

This campaign asks the district to fund stormwater repair, shoreline stabilization, and safer public access where years of neglect keep showing up after every hard rain. Supporters can follow the bond details here, then move into volunteer action or the restoration story depending on how they want to help.

Volunteers gathering litter near a river edge. — Shoreline cleanup shifts make the bond campaign tangible because people can see exactly where neglect keeps washing back in.

What the bond would change on the ground

Supporters need to understand what the money does, why the vote matters now, and what volunteers are already seeing on the water. That is why the page keeps pulling readers toward the field story and the next public event instead of ending with a petition alone.

Sunlit river lined with dense trees. — On a clear day the river still looks generous, which is why people fight so hard when they see how badly it is treated.

People kayaking through a green river canyon. — Guided paddles help supporters understand how access, habitat, and cleanup work all meet on the water itself.
