Sister City Ventura has a Big Problem TOO

This message is for Venturans who believe the resident neighborhood should be the primary influence in adjacent development and are willing to take some action:

WE NEED YOU NOW!

Greetings!


I urgently need your physical help setting up our new public forum to Save Ventura. The financial expense has been heavy, and I just do not have the physical strength to set up our forum without more help. Having a public forum at the Main Street Mini Fair to educate the public on the virtual destruction of our views, property values and quality of life is crucial to all of us. strolling thruminifair Setting up Five Tents and hauling in all the supplies at 8 am and breaking it down at 4 pm every Saturday until September 26th requires more of us who are physically able to do some part in this monumental effort to save our neighborhoods and community.

More and more neighborhoods are coming under fire almost weekly now, and the refusal of the New Urbanists to bring heights down to reasonable levels hurts our town as a view-rich community in a natural setting. They simply do not value our sense of place as equal to their agenda for density, because most of them are not from here or did not come here to escape density. They came to create it.

The New Urbanists, mostly not from Ventura, have taken over City New Urbanist ProjectHall and their philosophy of very high density has morphed into an ideology. That means that moderation has gone out the window, and your property values are theirs for the taking. They believe they can change our town into their vision, not ours, without our consent, due to the intensity of their movement. In fact, they have been encouraged with some major successes, which we can still reverse, if we show the political will. Educating the public on what is going on is crucial to matching our will to theirs.

Concrete lasts forever, IS NOT GREEN, and your quality of life will become history unless you take action. If we do not match their intensity and dedication, then they will determine your property values, traffic levels and even the quality of the air you breathe.

It's up to you. I will fight the battle as long as I am standing, and I need you beside me at crucial times. This is one of those urgent times. If you, your children or grandchildren have the physical strength to help pitch a tent or carry a box of supplies, I need you now. Here's what we need right now:

1. Set up and take down: Please just give one Saturday a month at the set up at 8 am or take down at 4 pm.
2. VCORD table volunteers. We need two volunteers to be at our table from 10 to 4. Please schedule a Saturday for even two hours to help.
3. Management and Scheduling: Managing the Mini Fair and talking to all of the folks who want to know about what's happening to our town at the same time is not possible. If you have management and scheduling abilities, we need a volunteer to do that.

Please meet to help set up in the Mini Park this Saturday at 8 am or at take down at 4 pm in the middle of the 300 block on Main Street. It's your town, and it's going to take every one of us stepping up to help, in order to save it.

It's our town and our choice. Your action can change the city's direction towards overdevelopment by your donation of just a couple of hours or a financial donation.



We need everyone's commitment to prevail.. Please call me at 648-1902, or just show up as the gift that you are!
