Arguments For Measure F2008

Arguments Against Measure F2008

Measure F2008, the City Growth Policy Measure, Includes the same provisions and prohibitions as Measure E2008 except that Measure F2008 allows the citizens of Buellton to review the City's growth policy in six (6) years, not seventeen (17) years. Circumstances may dictate or warrant a review after a shorter period of time. Dale Molesworth Ed Andrisek Victoria Pointer Harris R. Sherline Gerald T. Witcher

Vote "NO" on Measure F. Measure F fails to provide a meaningful voice to the people of Buellton in decisions that affect the long-term future of our community. Measure F does not protect the City's small-town character or help prevent urban sprawl for the full life of Buellton's General Plan. The General Plan, our "blueprint for growth" through 2025, is based on the current city boundaries and has the community's stamp of approval. By maintaining Buellton's current City limits for only 6 years, Measure F will fail to promote downtown revitalization or to maintain property values within Buellton. Measure F will instead promote speculation on farmlands on the outskirts of town by those awaiting its expiration. Measure F was placed on the ballot at a special meeting, with only 24 hours notice, where not one member of the public spoke for it and many spoke against it. The people of Buellton deserve better. Measure F was not created by the people of Buellton and it was not created for the people of Buellton. Please vote "NO" on Measure F. Buellton Is Our Town Anita Elovitz Controlling Officer
