Yes! But I'm Supposed To Be On Vacation

Yes! I did read both of Ms. Ashley Ratcliff's articles in today's Palos Verdes Peninsula News.

I found them very good, as usual and as informative as Ms. Ratcliff always writes them.

I shall ponder more on them if I remain awake for a long period of time when we fly home.

But for now, I hope you will learn all you can about "P" and make up your own mind to not be overly influenced by Marymount supporters who continue to attempt to muddy the waters by mentioning items in The Marymount Plan that have already been approved of by the City Council. They will try their best to make you believe that the Council has not approved things like a state-of-the-art Library or new athletic facilities or new construction other than dorms. But the Council has approved construction of EVERYTHING brought to them by Marymount's representatives for discussion and approval.

Please contribute you knowledge, time, energy, and funds to Save Our City III and other groups opposed to measure "P".

If you are of a like mind as me, please vote NO on measure "P" because having up to 250 college-age students living high up on Palos Verdes Drive East poses safety concerns that cannot be mitigated to be safe enough for students, residents, visitors, and others. I am still waiting for anyone willing to debate me about the safety of placing students in dorms on the Marymount campus as opposed to having students live in off-campus housing and being transported to and from the campus with trained shuttle bus drivers more familiar with roads and traffic patterns that the mostly out of area students would be.

For whatever reasons you feel are justified to oppose measure "P", please use them, tell your neighbors of your concerns and join with a growing number of individuals and groups seeking to support The Marymount College Facilities Expansion Project as I do and oppose The Marymount Plan and its measure "P".
