From the Common Sense Alliance
Common Sense Alliance (CSA) is pleased to announce the addition of Sandy Mackie, a leading land use attorney of the Perkins Coie Law Offices, Seattle, to its team of professionals: including practicing attorneys, civil engineers, licensed and certified hydrologists, geologists, and business leaders. We look forward to having Sandy’s guidance and assistance in resolving the critical legal issues as proposed in the draft Critical Areas Ordinances (CAO) and Shoreline Management Program (SMP) prepared by San Juan County. Sandy’s CV may be found at https://www.perkinscoie.com/amackie/
CSA’s mission is to educate Islanders, as well as the San Juan County Council, Staff, and Planning Commission on the law and process regarding updates to the Critical Areas Ordinances (CAO) and Shorelines Management Program (SMP). As a part of this mission CSA considers it critical for all to consider the social, economic and environmental impacts of change upon our rural way of living, and to evaluate and balance those competing interests as common sense advises and the law requires. Such an effort requires resources, human as well as financial, to reach out to the community. If you are available and would like to assist, please contact info@commonsensealliance.net.

Thank you so much for everything you have done on this. I think the public has started to wake up to just how important this is and to seriously question the County’s process and the Friends role in the County’s process. I’m impressed. And congratulations on the addition of Sandy Mackie. She should be great. Regards.
Judging from his picture, Sandy (Alexander) is male.
