Editorial: Slow-growth slate right choice for Marina

THE HERALD’S VIEW

Agreement is hard to come by in Marinathese days, but there is consensus on one key topic. Marinais the most logical place for residential and commercial growth on the coastalside of Monterey County.

It has room, lots of it at Fort Ord.

Unlike other places, it even has a reasonable amount of available water.

Campaign for Change Headquarters are located at 445 Reservation up above Wild Thyme. Precinct walking is every Saturday at 10 a.m. Refreshments, maps, training and literature provided.

Phone banking is ongoing every evening from 6 p.m. til 8:15. Call 917-9532 for arrangements.

Drop by the Farmers' Market at the Marina Campaign for Change table any Sunday 10-2 to talk to the candidates about issues important to you as a Marina citizen.

Marina citizens were told there is "no risk" involved to the city in the $106 million promise of tax increment funds in the revised proposal from The Dunes Marina Community Partners.

But Mayor Wilmot told a different story to Gov. Schwarzenegger in this Sept. 3 letter. Wilmot warned the governor that local government agencies' "financial commitments will be jeopardized if the tax increment is taken to support the budget problems." He further warns, "by taking tax increment revenues, this key local development project will be placed at risk, as will the jobs, housing, and economic benefits to ...the City."
