Ventura Citizens Organized for Responsible Development is playing David to the developers' Goliath. How many of these slick, glossy four-color mailers is Goliath going to send?
Will this display of developer money convince the average Ventura voter that Measure B is not about protecting views? Will it convince voters that VCORD is trying to empower themselves, not voters? I hope not!
Hard-working Ventura citizens labored to give Ventura voters a chance to vote for a Ventura View Protection Ordinance. With all the tall pending projects in the pipeline, if we do not vote for Measure B now, it will be too late. For heaven's sake, Burbank has a view protection ordinance; doesn't our lovely little Mission town deserve one?
