I just read the WRB article referenced. To make it clear to anyone reading this blog who may think otherwise, I did not write any comments criticizing the city. I am a huge fan of the City of Santa Clarita. Although I have no gripe with Supervisor Antonovich, I am happy living within the city limits. I also do not post using any pseudonym (s). I put my real name on any comments I make.

“Unbelievably, I have nothing to add to the conversation lately.”

Berta, points for being self-effacing!

Some days, we miss you.

Hi Tim.

I am flattered you noticed I have not been posting much. I have been busy but I do try to read SCVTalk.com every day.

Unbelievably, I have nothing to add to the conversation lately. I still agree with the same people on the same issues and disagree with the same people on the same issues too.

I am interested in your opinions on the issues and candidates for the upcoming June election as I just received my vote by mail ballot. Thanks.

John’s right. The increased production days will be a shot in the arm and will probably be enough to make several auxiliary business viable. It isn’t necessarily that jobs will be created solely to support Disney, but that existing production work plus Disney might mean that many kinds of business that couldn’t quite make it here before would be able to now.

Gate King could be good when it gets built. Disney studios will only have 250 permanent full time jobs. The rest are location shoots. Those folks will come from all over So Cal so no real benefit there. So, if we have 250 jobs at Disney and 500 at Gate King, that would just about negate the impact from a 750 unit development by Casden. So, no real impact to our jobs \ housing imbalance. I’ll have to check out the rents at the Casden development in Westwood and I’ll post how affordable they are.

Another strong analysis here Jeff and further evidence that incremental improvements and not a u-turn are needed to keep and improve upon the good decisions that were made in the past.

I agree that the city council is soft and too chummy with some select businesses and business owners.

Funny thing is, there’s a lot more development going in unincorporated SCV than within city limits, because it’s easier to do out there.

Also, the town councils don’t really provide “caring, protective representation” to anyone. All they can do is ask Mike Antonovich for favors. He treats them well but he’s getting old. I wonder if the next guy in his seat will be as caring.
