28 Wednesday, September 20, 2017 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon C L A S S I F I E C D L S A LETTERS S S I F Continued from page 2 remember the painful transition from a log- ging economy to a tourism-based economy. Fortunately we made a successful transition and Sisters is a desirable place to live as a result. However, we risk all that we love about this place if the current forest management (or lack of) continues. The debate over whether to let National Forest and wilderness burn, as we have done for decades now, should be over. It is obvious that fires are much more intense due to the current forest policies, including the failure to treat burned areas after a fire. Snags, fallen trees, and large areas of manza- nita growth make each successive fire more intense, destroying everything in its path. Forget about increasing school enroll- ment, affordable housing, or whether we need another roundabout. None of those will matter if we continue to let our forests burn, because no one will want to live here or visit. It is time for our city representatives (and the Chamber) to gather the public for a discussion on for- est management, and then push for a new way forward. This needs to happen now, along with calls to Wyden, Merkley, and Walden, demanding action. Carey Tosello Affordable Handyman & Yard Care with distinction & integrity.

Logging programs provide a broad spec- trum of long-term jobs and payroll tax rev- enue. The forestry department would receive revenue for the logging operations that could be used for reforestation and to improve trails and campgrounds for use by the public, and coincidently provide much cleaner air quality. The state would also receive revenues from timber sales that could be used to provide financial aid to our school systems that are in desperate need of financial assistance. The way we have been managing our for- ests for the last 30+ years is not working for the people, the economy, the animals and their habitat, and the environment. We need to make a change.
