The Commissioner finally agreed to relocate the project to the boat launch site. My chest feels heavy with relief after all the resistance we faced but this is the right outcome for our community.

Matagorda County Precinct 2 Commissioner George Deshotels has secured a grant from the Texas General Land Office, in order to erect a 29'x29' six-toilet, two-urinal public restroom facility on raised piers at the northeast quadrant of the Canal Road/CR230 park. 
Despite protests from property owners and Matagorda county taxpayers, Mr. Deshotels has been reluctant and unwilling to consider alternatives to this project. According to the Texas General Land Office, the scope and location of the project can be changed by requesting an amendment to the Grant #10-135-000-4011, awarded under the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act. 

This petition is requesting that our public official, Commissioner George Deshotels, respect the will of the people and the role of his office by responsibly spending the grant monies on an upgraded/new public restroom facility at the west mooring site boat launch park rather than constructing a new facility at the Canal Road/CR230 Park.


This change would provide an elevated restroom facility to meet FEMA elevation  requirements, and would better serve the needs of a greater number of beach visitors and users of the pavilions, boat launch, and the proposed new fishing pier to be built.  We are seeking an amendment to the grant to relocate the restroom facility according to the aforementioned discussion.

Reaching this level of support confirms that I am not alone in questioning the direction of this project. The pushback feels heavy some days but seeing these names gather reminds me why we started this fight in the first place.

Why wont he just move the location? Its an easy fix and would actually help the people at the boat launch who have nothing right now.

The west boat launch is where people actually need these facilities. putting it at Canal road makes zero sense and just ruins the view for homeowners.

Fix the boat launch area instead. That spot is constantly busy and it would be a huge improvement for the public.

Sea food have a tendency to come to be a lot less active in the middle of the day as being the heating and brilliant direct sun light can make them a lot more lethargic and less very likely to nibble.

You'll need to use showpiece, workhorse, and very long-tail video clips. Showpiece videos simply employ visual flare to make this business look presentable. Workhorse video lessons give clients a look in regards to what the company delivers. Very long-tail video tutorials tackle specific subjects far more comprehensive than the other video tutorials.
