We're a little town of about 8000 folks...and we're facing growth that's looking like it will DOUBLE the population of this area....DOUBLE!!...that's big change!
How do you manage growth in your town? How are you preparing for the future?
Here in my little corner of San Diego County we're facing some monumental changes...the plans being made today will build out over the next 15 years and will affect the quality of life and home values for everyone!
Last night I attended a meeting of the Valley Center Ca. Planning Group...and it was a packed house!
The Planning Group had three large items on the agenda...a major development plan for the north villiage area wtih over 500 homes...a proposed 1700+ home development for the far western edge of this area...and a group of folks that are trying to promote and preserve the rural character of the outlying areas.
For many years Valley Center was a quiet little place...not more than a wide spot in the road...but now we're becoming a focal point for sustainable community development...new community planning standards...and the potential for huge growth.
We're fortunate here...lots of property owners are taking the time to become involved in shaping the future of our area...lots of community involvement means plans that satisfy at least a majority of the residents.
We're at a watershed point...the plans are being made today that will affect us for the rest of our lives here. I suspect this is happening all over the U.S right now.
What's the situation in your area?
