Meeting to Focus on Hillside Development
- Share via
The fourth public workshop to discuss the potential for development on Ventura hillsides is planned for Wednesday.
Topics will include constraints and threats to development, including the hillsides’ topography, geology and plants and animals, organizers said.
The meeting will also include discussions of possible benefits.
About 5,000 acres above the city, owned by several families for more than a century, have become the center of discussion among the landowners, those who support development and those who want the landscape preserved.
The families are holding the public meetings in hopes of finding a project that residents will embrace.
If they come to some conclusion, the landowners have said they plan to put the development plan to a citywide vote.
The meeting will run from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the 500-seat Serra Center at the San Buenaventura Mission, 211 Main St.
