Dear MSF Board of Directors:

Please vote NO on appropriations of ALL Funds to MAEDA for the 2,000 acre Marshall Megasite for the purpose of Ford's Blue Oval Battery Park. 

This corporate welfare project and a corporate land grab neither benefits the residents of Marshall nor the State of Michigan.  The enormous public price tag of this project- One Billion 600 million combined with the loss of community, historic farmsteads, residential areas, wildlife habitat and 1,900 acres of farmland outweigh the jobs to be gained.  

I ask you again to Please Vote No on the appropriations of 120 million dollars to MAEDA for land acquisition and site development for Ford's EV Battery Park. 

Please listen to Calhoun County residents who have a better vision for this land and for creating economic development in the area through the establishment of a State Park Recreational Area to include an agricultural and historic district. Economic development can be achieved through development projects which fit into the size and character of our community. 

Sincerely,
