Clean Columbia County

Guiding Principles:

Stewards of the Commons: The commons are the glue that holds communities together.
Basic Citizen Rights: The right of citizens the create a vision for their communities.
Wise Stewardship: Evaluate and make good decisions for the long-term, rather than rush decision making that may result in unanticipated damage and then undertaking restoration after the damage is done.
Sustainable Communities and Economy. Creating good paying jobs is a laudable goal but not at the expense of the things we value. The promise of jobs must always be accompanied by a complete analysis of the ecological and economic costs.
Government Accountability: Hold elected officials accountable to make susre they treat people and the county's valued attributes as primary.
