We would like to do the same. If you’re a Colorado resident or one of FAN’s Professional signers, please submit comments to the board calling for the end to fluoridation. All others please hold off on sending comments for now, until locals and experts have been heard; councilors generally don’t want to hear from out-of-state residents unless they have a medical or scientific background. - Email - [publicinformation@denverwater.org](mailto:publicinformation@denverwater.org?subject=Fluoride%20Information%20Session) - U.S. Mail - Denver Board of Water Commissioners Attn: Matt Wittern, APR 1600 West 12th Ave Denver, CO 80204 - [Web form](http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=gFTWlAhXxE4iLQ3ZFIXJEC4CU4phwRb4&ref=foodconsumer.org) [](http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=6Az7SA%2BrKilS%2B%2BFPeLi2Oi4CU4phwRb4&ref=foodconsumer.org) Sincerely, Stuart Cooper*Campaign Manager,* [](http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=xy5AfwoL2gSnj45hL43Guy4CU4phwRb4&ref=foodconsumer.org) [Fluoride Action Network](http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=kOIYhhfsPoZniT73eiftuS4CU4phwRb4&ref=foodconsumer.org) [](http://org.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=9xsBsjxdY%2BeTniDSsOLTki4CU4phwRb4&ref=foodconsumer.org)
