Say hello to 14340 new road trips per day feeding Petaluma Hill Road and other arteries.

Rohnert Park City Council to act on proposed changes to allow more units and less buffer to Snyder Lane and to G Section and move forward with development of their signature sardine can development model over a beautiful oak meadow along a scenic corridor.

4 packs, Small lot homes, Zero lot lines, Apartments, Townhouses…
Rohnert Park’s tagline should be “Building the ghettos of tomorrow, today”.

If you have had enough with the traffic and congestion and are fed up with corrupt officials trying to bring the South Bay to the North Bay – show up and get your opposition on the record. Make sure to include water, traffic, scenic corridors, CEQA, Tiger Salamanders, Aquifer…

Why is it always about packing in more units, reducing parks, reducing buffers and reducing separation between homes in Rohnert Park?

Here is the agenda:

Staff recommends that the City Council specifically discuss and provide recommendations regarding the following project components:
• A request for increased maximum density within the Specific Plan Area from 1,085 units to 1,434 units.
• A reduced buffer width along Snyder Lane from 200 foot wide buffer to 32 foot wide buffer.
• A reduction of the buffer between G Section and the project from 100 foot wide buffer to the minimum width necessary to achieve a visual corridor.
• Modify the park and open space configurations in the general plan which provides for an 8 acre park and linear trails to a proposed 5.8 acre park with three smaller parks (for a total of 10.8 acres of active parks) and linear trails.

Rohnert Park already has 4 major development projects in the pipeline with 5000 units in the works. Time for a moratorium and let’s see how those play out before we add any more.

Tell RP to give their development agency, that you pay for to help developers get these massive build-outs approved, a sabbatical.

Since the fires the traffic in Sonoma County has become unbearable and the quality of life that we came here for is going to be gone forever if we don’t put the brakes on this mindless development juggernaut.

New post shows some Rohnert Park residents new concerns about the 5 major developments going on along rural corridor.
Maybe residents of RP are awaking?

I regularly submit articles in the papers about the mess the Rohnert Park development machine is causing to greater Sonoma County, and raising the point that we are in the worst drought on record and are on water restrictions, so how does it make sense to add 5600 homes now?
Inevitably the City Manager writes back that Lake Sonoma is full, our wells are at capacity and the drought has miraculously bypassed Rohnert Park! So the sheeple should just leave them alone. And also it’s all legal and approved.

This article by Brenda Adelman examines the claim.

Please tell them how you feel about the 5160 homes they are building on rural corridor and the impact it will have on our quality of life and the rural character of our area.

Yesterday I sat on Adobe Road for 15 minutes to get through the intersection with Petaluma Hill Road.

This is my old commute (photo).

I like my new commute on Petaluma Hill Road, past the strawberry stand just the way it is. No thanks Rohnert Park, we don’t need your 15000+ new autos on this area.
