Save Oxnard's Sports-park............

                  (www.gorelladvocacy.com)    		In what would appear to be a move by the City Council to avoid the issue of making a re-zoning decision.  Mayor Pro-Tem Andres Herrera was the first to speak up on Council that the decision being asked of the Council that day could not be made due to a report, or section of the entire packet the Council needed for its review, was previously missing and had just appeared within 24 hours. That, according to Herrera and other Councilmen was unsatisfactory and therefore the Council had to table the decision and discussion on the item of re-zoning the Sports Park. 
Attendees had to fight for the right to speak on the issue - and said, had they known this item would have been pulled from the agenda, they would have spoken on it during public comments.

Hearing the pleas of the citizens, Mayor Holden, in a rare, but proper move, re-opened public comments allowing all in attendance to speak on "Items Not On The Agenda"

Mayor Holden modified the agenda by consent of City Attorney, Gary Gillig and the remainder
of the Council.

Several attendees who spoke about the proposal mentioned that the Planning Commission did them and Oxnard a disservice in making their decision based only on the available information they had - minus the missing report which the Council had just gotten hours before the convening of the June 20th meeting.

Somehow, in this mix, the Planning Commission should have reviewed this document and they approved the re-zoning without it.

As it stands - the re-zoning proposal will be placed on the agenda of a future Council meeting - maybe in July or perhaps August. 

This extra time will allow the Council to review all documents pertinent to the issue and will also allow residents time to re-group and re-think their strategy, to get more people out to speak up for what Oxnard needs desperately - and that is more open space for free recreation.

OXNARD DOES NOT NEED 100 MORE HOUSES...............

On June 20th,  the Oxnard City Council will accept or decline the offer of Centex Homes to develop and build 100 houses on top of land the City has zoned and declared a SPORTS PARK for the past two decades.

With a promise to the residents of Oxnard, and in particular, to those who recently bought new homes in the West Village neighborhood, the City has set aside this land for a sports park.  Even a park similar to the one that resides across from the Oxnard Airport on 5th Street is all the citizens are asking for. We just ask for open space and an area where we can play soccer and enjoy our community.

Centex, a major home developer is pushing all sides of the envelope to have this project approved. 
Centex has developments in more than 25 states in the continental US.  A few extra units put up in Oxnard is not going to break the financial back or future outlook of Centex - but - putting houses on this lot where our community was PROMISED and ZONED a sports park will break the collective will of our residents and ruin our future outlook as a community that is focused on the better life which so many have come to Oxnard to enjoy and live.

A warning goes out to any Councilmen who approve this - that your Centex will come to you in November 2006 or 2008 - whenever your next election is.  Because the 100 extra votes you cram into Oxnard's north end will not override the thousands that will come from voters who will not forget your breaking of a promise.

The City of Oxnard does have the money to buy this land for our use - it is just the leadership does not have the will to approve a park over the special interests of a develooper --- so --- please join your fellow residents on Tuesday at City Council and send them a message.....

This item came to the Ox Jo for dissemination..................

Mr. Winter, this is another news article
that the Ventura Star will not print.
It isn't long, but tells a news story that needs to be printed.

 After Mr. Molina won a unanimous jury award and after he  won twice at  the 9th Circuit of Appeals against the City of Oxnard and City Manager,  Ed Sotelo, Federal Magistrate Judge Stephen J. Hillman ordered City of  Oxnard to a SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE on July 5, 2006 in the case of Phillip  S. Molina v. the
City of Oxnard and Ed Sotelo.

  POLITICAL STATEMENT..........

In reviewing page hits (Ox Jo archive pages recently retrieved by readers) it has been noted that some readers or politically minded researchers have accessed pages from our 2004 archival page files.  During 2004, the Oxnard Journal was promoting Bill Winter for his bid to run for Mayor and many of the articles and news items were contrary against his primary opponent and our current Mayor, Dr. Tom Holden.

It is the position of the Oxnard Journal to say openly, at this point in time, that the Ox Jo supports Mayor Holden in his bid for a second run and re-election to the office of Mayor.  Thusly stating, it is in our interest to promote our current Mayor when he officiates well and conducts business that is pleasing and beneficial to the people of Oxnard.  The majority of residents contacted in daily business feel that Mayor Holden is the right person for the job.

Editorially,  it is not in our interest to remove or redact any pages which were created during the 2004 election as they will remain a part of the Ox Jo website as an historical record of that race.

In retaining these archival pages, the Ox Jo means no detriment to our current Mayor. 
In fact, in reviewing the pages which were submitted for political reporting in 2004, there was only one page which was removed from the server as that page was considered to be a tad bit harsh in criticism against our current Mayor.

Again, it is the stated position that the Oxnard Journal supports our current Mayor and will do all it can to uphold Dr. Holden's position as our Mayor for the City of Oxnard.

 The United Farm Workers and the Cesar E. Chavez Foundation are proud to support the grassroots efforts of the "Cesar E. Chavez National Holiday Coalition". 

UFW Founder Cesar E. Chavez, stood as one of the heroic figures of the 20th century who inspired millions in our nation into action for economic and social  justice, civil rights and political empowerment.  He led the historic non-violent movement for farm workers' rights and was dedicated to building a movement of poor working people that extended beyond the fields and into cities and towns across the nation.

The legacy of Cesar E. Chavez, like the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., serves to educate, inspire, and empower people from all walks of life. Cesar Chavez is a role model for all Americans and the generations to come. 

Ask Congress to designate March 31 as Cesar E. Chavez Day to ensure Chavez' legacy is recognized and celebrated throughout our nation with a federal paid holiday and a day of service and learning in our public schools.

 ....... Take Action at: http://www.ufw.org/chavezholiday

  Tell-A-Friend: Please help make the Cesar E. Chavez national holiday a reality.  Forward this message to at least 10 friends or family and ask them to sign the petition today.

"Good friends are like stars......You don't always see them, but you know they are always there."

 From the Oxnard Watch-Dog.........¿ WHERE IS BROWN 25
............................................................................WHEN YOU NEED IT : ?

Did you read the "B" Section of the Star about how the entire City Council (all five of them) went on a field trip to talk about "a fashion retail center" for a project that hadn't even submitted a pre application?
                                                       Gosh, that used to be called 
"A VIOLATION OF THE OPEN MEETING LAW", aka the Brown Act, so:
1. When was the public notified about this closed session?
2. How did the Council members get to Rancho Cucamonga? Did they all take the same car? Did three of them go in the same car, which would mean that the going and coming were separate closed sessions?
3. What else did the Council talk about during this time, which creates another violation of the Act? OR, did they just sit in the same car but not say a word the entire two hour trip?
4. Why go on such a long "fact finding trip" when the 'Officials with RiverPark Legacy, heretofore called "the DEVELOPERS"  haven't and wouldn't even submit a "pre-application within 3 months" according the Matt Winegar?
5. Recall that the DA's attorney told jurors that "Convicting someone on a conspiracy charge isn't as complicated as it sounds". "It can be as simple as two people casually walking down the street agreeing to commit a crime like spray-painting a building and then taking steps toward accomplishing that goal, he said. "That's all you need in a conspiracy," --- Barrick told jurors." [From Star first page story "Taggers hit with felony charges".] Well than what do you call it when FIVE Council members agree to violate the Brown Act?

Oxnard Councilman Dean Maulhardt says he doesn't care much for shopping,
but that could change. Maulhardt joined Mayor Tom Holden and three other council members on afield trip Friday to Rancho Cucamonga, where they checked out Victoria
Gardens, a new 1.3 million-square-foot shopping center.
