Supervisors on LV Scenic Road " Build First, then We'll Save It"

Get Microsoft Silverlight

On February 5, 2013.  the Board of Supervisors were presented with an opportunity to preserve Lucas Valley Road as a Scenic Highway for the benefit of the community, tourists and future generations. 

It would have no immediate impact on the development potential of affordable housing, yet the supervisors were sufficiently spooked to dismiss the effort outright.

Many community residents spoke up in support of the project  and had signatures from a petition from community members.  Despite the passionate love of the land, expressed by supporters, the supervisors unanimously opposed the simple designation.

It is clear, that all of the supervisors want to concentrate affordable housing throughout the valley.  In addition to the five massive affordable housing developments now identified, it is expected that they will also down zone our single family homes to allow multifamily homes for their "Transit Village" utopian ideal of Smart Growth. (We call it Disneylandia)

This Board of Supervisor is turning it's back on the values of preservation of Nature that make Marinwood-Lucas Valley such a wonderful place.  We believe that they are concentrating development here, to preserve the leafy neighborhood in their own backyards.  It is NIMBY by the political elite against the politically weak.

Lucas Valley has timeless beauty

It is your Community and your Future.  Speak up and be heard.
