Victories in Developmental Growth

6 supporters are talking about petitions related to Developmental Growth!

I care about petitioning for schools for young children because every child deserves a strong start in life. Early education shapes how kids learn, grow, and connect with the world. Without access to good schools, many children miss out on the chance to build confidence, curiosity, and important skills that will help them later in life. I believe it’s our responsibility to make sure all children—no matter where they come from—have safe, supportive places to learn and thrive.

That prooerty I had visited on several occasions when it was owned by the Scotto family, and Barone family. The trees made it very pleasant, and are needed to retain soil , noise from trains and wildlife along the Arroyo Mocho creek, which has also a shaded, quiet trail. Loss of trees will never be the same again in anyones lifetime. We've lost the huge 150 year old Eucalyptus by old firestation 1 in the park, the English walnut 'tunnel' grove along Valley Ave, Several large Walnut trees at Bernal ave/Foothill rd ( I hit one in a accident on Foothill rd in 86 by Jorgensen dr.) The evergreens and land berns to hide the SRVSD were recently all destroyed in Stoneridge drive to widen the lanes for Costco, which has NO trees. Each of those trees takes 40 years growth to make it worthwhile. Trees are a improvement to a property , not just something in the way, just look at Castlewood Country club. Can you imagine that if each house leveled the ground to only add landscaping after? Trees are an asset, to be included and built around them. Sadly the creek needs them to protect from erosion , which also feeds them. They are NOT a parasite that needs removing, they're needed for shade, fresh air, and to provide homes for the many creatures we share living space with. The Trees are your asset, and make the property more desirable, and increase its value. If anything, more should be planted.

This will be a key issue for us going forward. We're not anti-development. We are pro smart development. The density that is rapidly being created in Manorhaven is going to be a big problem for all of us. We live on a Peninsula with only three roads in and out.

As someone who grew up in Manhasset Isle in the 1970s, it is disheartening to see what has become of what was once a quaint neighborhood. Now, once one family houses are sold, developers turn them into two 2-family homes, creating monstrosities that no longer have yards, draw more on our resources such as water, and impact the traffic of our roads. Roads are hard to navigate now that so many cars are parked on either side. How is that safe for our children riding bikes, and our pedestrians taking walks? We only have one entry in and out of Manhasset aisle, and the traffic has become unbearable on the morning commute. There is definitely a reason why so many extra stop signs have been added over the last decade. Please do something else with our land that is beneficial to all and does not erode our resources, especially with our water and sewer system. I’m very concerned about the longevity of this once beautiful island. Please consider making a sustainable plan for Manhasset Isle. Thank you.
