Citizens Need To Reject the Growth Plan and the Expanded CRA Redevelopment Debt Levels Increases. The two items are linked. The Growth Plan approval will justify the "Need" for the increased CRA DEBT, and or Special Assessments and some would call those taxes as they are paid on your property tax bill. Say no to the revised plan as it is not sustainable and does not provide for an improved local economy or environment. There is insufficient Ag zones/reserves to feed our own population. It promotes only Retail Sales Tax Collections which is a failing economic formula as it is dependent on Imported Products which ultimately drain the US Economy. It removes the land and property rights of individuals and puts the city into being a developer in competition with other businesses and land owners. Go to the meeting speak up. If you don't there will be no fighting in court any thing included in the plan.
