When Ken Mattson and his Sonoma Cheese Factory (one of his some 80+ real estate holdings in Sonoma Valley) threw an open house schmoozer for Plaza business neighbors, the protestors outnumbered the guests. The January 30th action was organized by Wake Up Sonoma, a community group very suspicious of Mattson’s master plan for the area. Lisa Stroment, speaking for the group on Facebook, said the police were summoned, three times, to break up the rally. Protestors were threatened with removal and arrest. “Even though we were quite intentional in being orderly and respectful, we were accused of pushing one of their guests, absolutely untrue, and blocking the sidewalk and entrance and egress to the building – also not true.” The group was heartened by the turnout. “We made our voices heard tonight. This is not the end.” … By the way, what’s the right cheese choice for peaceful assembly?
