The link below is to the petition to overturn the General Plan revision that would allow the two properties where the Red Oak project would be built to be changed from “Commercial” and “Industrial,” respectively, to “Urban Mixed Use.”

Don’t sign the petition! This is a good project in the right area. Fullerton doesnt have enough housing and the population keeps growing. Traffic is a red herring brought by the opposition to keep new housing out of Fullerton. The opposition really just wants to keep new people (asians and hispanics) out and keep fullerton exclusive (white). Support new housing for jobs, education, and lower housing costs.

Unbelievable, unsubstantiated race-baiting. Where is your proof for such an outrageous claim? And how is your trial going?

And your claims make no sense. That is already a Latino area, although the neighborhoods are pretty mixed, in general. If anything, Red Oak is more likely to bring in more white people.

No racism here. We love our diverse neighborhoods. That’s what we are trying to protect.

Fullerton’s development plans are so shoddy. In Brea, the planning commission takes great pride in ensuring that development is consistent with the city attributes and culture. Fullerton will build anything and everything it can with no regard to aesthetic. There is no consistency to architectural preservation or considerations to environemental, traffic/pedestrian impact. The city council IMO simply has bad taste. Take one look at Brea and see the development there: downtown Brea, La Floresta for example. They get Wholefoods, Apple … what does Fullerton get? Chuckie Cheeze and more dense housing projects like Amerige Heights. Fullerton is fast-losing its luster.

Well there is that small matter of bulldozing the entire original downtown and replacing it with the Promenade, which an astute observer likened to “one big Panera Bread”.

“My next position was with the City of Brea as an Analyst. I spent the next 13 years of my career in Brea taking progressively more responsible positions that finally resulted in my being appointed to the position of Senior Planner in the Development Services Department. During my tenure with Brea I was part of the dynamic team that implemented that community’s vision for its downtown resulting in the award-winning Birch Street Promenade.”

You have a very good point. But at least they rebuilt with an architectural eye. Fullerton just doesn’t know how to build anything with any aesthetic. Look at St. Jude Hospital. What an eye sore that entire complex is. It looks like a Nuclear waste dump.
