  Hi Sandra --

1.  At the March 11 City Council meeting to continue changing the General Plan, the Arts Element was rescued -- thanks to Sharon Crull and Greg Pitts. The winners in this new creative economy are, guess what, creative places! We also have Sharon and Greg to thank for recognizing the economic benefit of cultural diversity.  It's difficult to comprehend what the City is up against with the Council majority unless you view the proceedings yourself -- so here's a clip of the discussion on just the cultural diversity issue. Sadly, this kind of thing has been going on for years.

Maybe it is time for the people to rescue the whole thing?  Read on and take the survey below to assess whether there is support for a ballot Initiative to adopt the 2010 General Plan Update (GPU) on the November ballot. A ballot measure would mean adopting the GPU as it was designed by the people and approved by the Planning Commission in 2011. It has been dissected at the City Council for the last 3 years.  Now it is almost incomprehensible.

Please forward this email to friends and family in St. Helena.  Thank you,
Sandy
