fresno elections 2008

As a Fresno County Supervisor with a completely urban district I was one of the first members of the Fresno 2020 Committee. Preventing urban sprawl was a priority of the 2025 General Plan then and remains so. In-fill development is a major component in reducing urban sprawl and is the right course to maintain. Preservation of farmland, air quality and livable communities are all dependent on sound planning. Urban sprawl is contrary to sound planning.
