I am glad to see some comments and response to my blog. Some of the answers to your questions are:1.) Jonata Park Road is named after Jonata Park which is now the Pistol and Bow Club. At one time it was a fire station, then converted to a park which turned out to have water problems.
2.)The Avenue of Flags, including the median is owned by the City of Buellton so it can be recreated however agreed upon .
3.) Redevelopment kind of lost it's steam on AOF when speculators bought up most of it and put outlandish prices on several parcels. It was like holding the City hostage. However it is still a top priority with the City. Moving the Post Office, library, visitors bureau and even a small museum to 2nd Street and the AOF now makes more sense then ever! With this economy, now is a good time for the City to acquire land to do so.
I was a contributor to Cal-Ed study and I do believe we need to protect our M zoning, which is Industrial property. Jobs need to be created for the residents of Buellton to eliminate all the commuting.
