Description
The state of Washington is cracking down on a controversial megachurch in Pierce County.
Neighbors in Milton have been fighting this project since 2019, saying it puts wetlands and wildlife at risk. Now they're hoping state regulators will help their cause.
Construction on this years-long, hotly-contested megachurch just got underway. The state found the builders are not following state environmental laws.
"I'm glad the state's coming in but I don't know what they'll be able to actually do. I mean, this is the very beginning of the project and nothing is being done correctly," said Milton resident Cheryl Reid-Simmons.
