Planning Commissioner, "The only likely development for approval is Marinwood Village"

Did we hear this right?  This is an excerpt from the February 11, 2013 Planning Commission meeting. 

"The only project likely to get approved for the 2014 Housing Element is Marinwood Village"

also our newest commissioner (and Marinwood resident), Ericka Erikson questions, "Why are all of the Marinwood Village apartments listed as all extremely low to low income with no moderate income units?"

After three hours of testemony mostly from residents of Marinwood-Lucas Valley, the planning commissionors still regard Marinwood Village as a site "very likely" to develop.

There is no mention of the community's legitmate concerns about the impact on the Dixie School district, the loss of our only viable retail location in the community, environmental concerns, etc.

Marinwood Village, if built will be one of the largest affordable housing communities in Marin next to Marin City and Hamilton.  High density housing brings high density urban problems.

Get active.  Our "neighborhood leaders", politicians and political insiders want this project badly. 

We can win the future WE want. Join us at the March 11th planning commission to voice your opinion.
