Meeting Topics

 Ozarks Highlands National Heritage Area—West Plains Council on the Arts and Ozarks Preservation, Inc. have decided to redirect their attention “toward opportunities to foster cultural conservation and economic opportunity that won’t necessitate the involvement of the NHA program and will rely  as much as possible on public funding.” It seems that the voices of the people of the Ozarks have been heard. OPRC will continue to monitor WPCOA and OP, Inc. until we are certain the OHNHA is really a dead issue.
  

Doreen Hannes will talk about the Sedgewick, Maine Food Freedom Ordinance that seeks to give local people “the right to produce, process, sell, purchase and consume local foods thus promoting self-reliance, the preservation of family farms, and local food traditions.” These rights are threatened by the “Food Safety and Modernization Act” passed by Congress in Dec. 2010 & signed by the President on January 5, 2011

 The wording of some of the Agriculture bills in the Missouri General Assembly is troubling. It would seem that there are possible dangers our “right-to-use-our property-as-ours.” We will focus on some of those.
 
We can’t relax just because we think the current Heritage Area threat may be going away.

The price of Freedom is Eternal Vigilance!
