Both very good opportunities for better paying jobs locally and will create more revenue for Menifee.<br /> However, there is noway for that to happen without the Holland bridge and the Scott Rd. bridge widened. First should be the Holland bridge to ease traffic while Scott Rd. is being widened. Then we can start with the widening of Newport. If we try to widen Newport first like what Zimmerman wants to do. Then, most of that traffic is forced to Scott Rd. which is only one lane and is already overwhelmed with traffic. And one more thing. Stop building these strip malls, until you can atleast figure out how to get them occupied. Shop at Scott is 100% vacant, and it looks like there trying to add another strip mall almost across the street. I doesn't make sense. We need bigger business if we want to gain more revenue's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5181366.post-89667179312343532852012-09-30T15:33:32.658-07:002012-09-30T15:33:32.658-07:00I don't think I can take any more negative Cou...I don't think I can take any more negative Councilman's arguing.<br />We need leaders who will send the right message to potential businesses.

We only have two accesses to the freeway in menifee. If Newport is worked on first, then traffic will get extremely bad during the construction. At least if Holland is done first, there will be less traffic passing over the Newport bridge during construction.

First of all, they would never do both at the same time, (Newport and Scott Rds) They would work on one and then the other, leaving two ways to get across this city. IF Riverside County was so interested in our fixing the roads, why on earth didn't they do the right thing the first time around.? Surely they must have done studies of the growing areas, knowing full well in 5 yrs we'd have a growing population, and yet they decided to take the lazy way out, and build small leaving the funding and worries up to the City of Menifee. Not very good leadership if you ask me. Riverside County has always been slow in getting anything done compared to other counties in southern California.

The four horsemen of the apocalypse are descending upon the City of Menifee.<br />You may not recognize them at first:<br /><br />• The oldest and frailest is a bit shaky in gait and has a little trouble with which direction to take. He may abandon the horse and just ride in with one of his Cadillacs. <br />• The next rider is in the position he regularly assumes: number two. He is an unsteady rider; definitely an amateur. <br />• The third member you can’t miss because of his pompous gait and noisy, obnoxious snorting. <br />• The fourth member fell off his horse from the weight of the wooden coins in his pocket; we may have to carry this one for awhile. <br /><br /> You may not be aware of these mythic figures at first. That’s because of the camouflage the media provides to conceal their modus operandi. Even so, you will surely recognize the familiar image as they ride away from you with their tails held high.<br /><br /> The media will only allow you to address them in glowing terms, so my advice to you is this: <br /><br /> Just let them ride off, unless, of course, you want to be part of the broom-and-dustpan brigade cleaning up after them for the next four years<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5181366.post-36326254566090838532012-09-28T14:22:04.872-07:002012-09-28T14:22:04.872-07:00Was it hubris that kept the other candidate for Di...Was it hubris that kept the other candidate for District#! from participating in the debate at Paloma last Wednesday?

It is not based on hidden agendas. Mr.Smith made some very valid points at the last campaign at Paloma.

For one thing, District 3 has NOT been around for many years. As for the undeveloped land, much of it has NOT been sitting waiting for developers. I doubt very much whether Wally and Judy would deliberately look for a house based on wanting to be in a certain area just to run for a seat. You put way too much emphasis on Mr. Zimmerman's Planning Commission, it appears Mr. Zimmerman has a lot of time to volunteer and be appointed to projects for the city. I think he thinks without a college degree or real experience somehow volunteering will give him the 'know how' to run a city, it does neither.

Bill has been on the Planning Commission for 4 years and knows what the City of Menifee needs to be successful. He also has lived in District 3 for many years. His opponent, Mr. Edgerton, decided to move to District 3 earlier this year after he found out that Darcy Kuenzi was going to run for Mayor. If you don't beleive me, please check for yourself...Mr. Edgerton went on record at a Council meeting earlier this year about where he was moving to. Edgerton is not what the City of Menifee or District 3 needs. He is out of touch with the younger demographic of District 3 and is promising to do things that he simply cannot deliver upon. He fails to realize that the City only has 11% of its total land available for changes in use, but continues to profess that he can keep all of the open fields undeveloped. Much of the land he is referring to is already entitled for development, it just hasn't been built on yet because of the slowdown.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5181366.post-21871782096205231132012-09-27T18:11:52.789-07:002012-09-27T18:11:52.789-07:00The district 3 race seems to be a shut out for the...The district 3 race seems to be a shut out for the newcomer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
