The untruths and misrepresentation of Ms. Vegter is damaging on a heart level. We must be able to trust those producing food to be honest for our health, and humane.

The wrong-headed topographic placement of this enterprise MUST be honestly and fully addressed once and for all.

This is horrendous that they should be allowed to continue practices detrimental to land, water and animals. and threatening their neighbors. Where is the county and what are they doing about this??

Uproot Meats must be stopped. They have repeatedly damaged neighbors' property, polluted the TID, and are a threat to the community.

Everyone should be concerned about malpractice, poor treatment of animals, people, and the land.

Uproot Meats is a serious detriment to the environment, humane treatment of animals, and this community.

It’s time for the county to step up and begin really getting these flagrant offenders in line

How much longer are we going to allow this company to continue to disregard the law and the environment and everyone else wellbeing for the sake of making a profit.

I live in Washington state so am not personally affected by Uproot's activities, but having learned of the situation from an Ashland friend, I share the outrage of local residents, as well as sadness for the animals, and am more than happy to sign the petition.

This is an operation with (at best), a consistent track record of environmental pollution in an environmentally sensitive location, and willful frequent violations of building rules, codes, and permits.

With all we know about responsible farm practices, none of this should be happening. Outrageous!

As a former farmer in Ky (cattle, hogs) and later a staffer at USDA, I know bad practices that endanger communities and the environment. Shut down this operation.

Uproot Meats needs to be held to the same codes and standards as any other business or individual

Bad farming AND bad environmental practices. Needs to be relocated.
