Just Leave Oxnard Farmland Alone
Now Oxnard wants to build a “self-sufficient community” on 815 acres of prime agricultural land (March 20).
Building houses and more shopping is bad enough, but to pave over 90 acres of rich farmland to develop an amusement park and museum to educate visitors on the importance of agriculture has to be the dumbest idea yet.
How about just leaving the farmland there and letting people enjoy seeing the real thing? I guess that’s too simple of an idea for money hungry politicians.
