The neighborhood we love so dearly is under threat. Your neighbors and neighborhood need you. Join Us!
On November 12, 2013, the Ventura County Board of Supervisors (BOS) will meet to approve or deny a high density development at the southwest corner of the intersection of the Metrolink tracks and Katherine Rd. on a property formerly known as the Horse Ranch.
If the Board approves the project it will mean:
- precedent setting zoning changes to our neighborhood which will increase the housing density for our entire area (from Oak Knolls to Box Canyon).
- widening Katherine Rd. with a loss of property frontage, much of the tree canopy, and street parking.
- unfair competition for an already limited and insufficient water supply and service.
- a high density condo style complex inconsistent with our rural area’s existing community.
Please visit our website at www.savetheknolls.com for more information on these issues, talking points or up-to-date meeting information.
If you care about your neighborhood, then your attendance at the BOS meeting on November 12th is extremely important. This is our LAST chance and we MUST succeed in communicating our issues to the Board of Supervisors. A final decision on this project will be made and just as we did in 2004 we must make a HUGE statement by ALL showing up in Ventura in our RED Shirts once again.

- donate to the Knolls Legal defense fund.
