- The Pebble Beach Lot Plan
-
Susan opposes large-scale development in Del Monte Forest, including the Pebble Beach lot plan. The Pebble Beach Company owns some 140 lots that it wishes to develop with houses in the Del Monte Forest. PBC has just obtained authorization to sell water from its reclamation efforts for some 200 more homes to private lot owners.
- Affordable Housing
-
Susan has an outstanding record of being an advocate for affordable work force housing. Susan favors of the Sam Farr proposal for the creation of 50% affordable work force housing at Ft. Ord.
- Growth
-
Silicon Valley has learned the hard way what happens when development is allowed to run amok without proper planning. Susan believes the lifeboat is full and we must say no to future large-scale growth. We must address the needs of those of us who already live here. We cannot invite more folks into the boat or it will sink.
