General plan homework
I don't understand how some attendees at Monday's City of Monterey
forum on the general plan election believe facts aren't being
presented fairly by supporters of No on A. I've read their analysis
of the LandWatch initiative. I have also read the Refinement Group's
counter-analysis to the League of Women Voters (found at
www.planforthepeople.org).
Plan for the People provides hyperlinks in its analysis so you can
easily shift between the two comparisons. All you have to do is link
back and forth and you can see the actual text they are citing, and
it is filled with unintended consequences.
If you don't have access to the Internet, you can visit a library or
Internet café and do so quite easily. Plan for the People could not
be doing more to keep me properly informed. You may not like what
you read when you see the bias in the league analysis or all the
legal defects in LandWatch's initiative, but it's clearly there for
all by simply clicking on a link.
Do your homework. I did,
and I'm voting No on A, No on B, Yes on C.
