URGENT: Don’t Let the City Council Decide Before Voters Do
Another City Council public hearing is scheduled for September 22. We are deeply concerned that the Council may attempt to approve the River Walk project before citizens have their say in the November 3 election.
Watch this important video to learn what’s at stake and why your voice matters now.
Save the date: September 22. Attend the hearing. Speak up.
Agriculture Removal
Removal of 1,500 acres between Patterson Road on the south, McHenry Avenue on the west, and the Stanislaus River on the north.
Loss of Riparian Habitat
To promote biodiversity and the health of the planet, it’s crucial to halt construction near the Stanislaus River, especially when alternative areas exist.
Major Congestion and Air Pollution
The Crossroads Project and new businesses like Costco has intensified traffic on key roads, while the city’s limited bus system fails to counteract the resulting congestion and air pollution.
Higher Sewer Rates
Developers pay for expansions to a city’s sewer and water system, but are not responsible for their maintenance afterwards.
Details
- The River Walk project and facts.
- Riverbank’s public officials are proposing a western expansion of the city’s existing Western boundary.
- They want to annex about 1,500 acres between Patterson Road on the south, McHenry Avenue on the west, and the Stanislaus River on the north.
Opposition
- Why oppose this development?
- The River Walk proposal would remove the current Agricultural Resource Conservation designation in the proposed project area and represents a significant shift in General Plan policies and guidelines.
“The City of Action needs to act in the best interest of its voters and all of the people in Stanislaus County. No River Walk!”
