Community Members: "Our environment in the north of the County is so fragile. Eric has grown up with an understanding of how very important it is to protect and safeguard our watershed -- the mountains,the trees, the river and its tributaries -- and the ocean. Today, it is more important than ever that we elect people who not only understand this, but understand the County's role in limiting impacts on it + and who live it daily like Eric."
