What Citizen Marin and Occupy Wallstreet have in Common.
Citizen Marin and Occupy Wall Street have similar frustration with the deficiencies in the public process and crony capitalism. We feel betrayed by the politicians/ bureaucrats who are allowing money interests to control the democratic process.
We are fighting a 25 year plan called "One Bay Area" which promises to dominate every aspect of our lives through central planning www.onebayarea.org . They want to create "urban containment" through rezoning land around freeways and railroad tracks to intensify living spaces so they may preserve land outside of "the urban zone". Suburbs will be displaced by "densification" or upzoning to allow apartment building to exist in single family neighborhoods and to create incentives for multifamily dwellings.
We want to "Keep Marin, Marin" and reject attempts of central planners to create "Disneylandia" in our liveable, walkable Marin neighborhoods.
