It is our hope that the site will wake up enough local people to convince local government that they need to back off and stop trying to ahead of the pack in implementing all the Agenda 21 stuff.
Speaking of Agenda 21 stuff, my poor little county was lost to that monster in 1993, although the process was started as far back as 1990. Only 125 people had any say in the matter, they certainly did NOT ask voters to participate in the process. Our county now looks like East Germany before the Berlin wall came down, with the highway starting to become overgrown with weeds because the agenda 21 policy won't let Caltrans use weedkiller to off them, grafitti and vandalism everywhere. The city of Santa Cruz is planning to build a desalination plant instead of building a reservoir that was paid for with 30 years of bond indebtedness, and nearly all the businesses that paid good wages are gone, with the largest employers in the county being the county itself and the Pajaro Valley Unified School district-- all gub'mint jobs.

Only 125 people had any say in the matter, they certainly did NOT ask voters to participate in the process. I was one of them. I was on the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Management Roundtable. They took our input and butchered it. The document was completed in secret by people who had not participated in the public process. I refused to go along. They said that I agreed anyway and put my name on their list as a memher of the "consensus." It was a screw job and a fraud.
