Newbury Park Likes Its Open Spaces
Re: Dec. 10 letters of Bill Williams and J. Kraus.
I voted for both Elois Zeanah and Jaime Zukowski. There must have been quite a few others who did the same, since both women were elected to the Thousand Oaks City Council. Zeanah and Zukowski both represent the slow- or no-growth attitude I came to love a long time ago. Most of my neighbors out here in the “sticks” feel the same. Newbury Park has been the bucolic harmless, backward “cousin” of Thousand Oaks for years.
Thousand Oaks has annexed most of Newbury Park without our permission. It’s your planners’ attitudes that are so well expressed by the words of one: “We have to develop Newbury Park. There aren’t any places left in Thousand Oaks to develop.”
Newbury Park doesn’t want to end up like Thousand Oaks. We like our open spaces. The Zs realize this and work hard to represent my interests.
