It's Go-Time, Neighbors. Let's Send A Tsunami Of Letters!
It's GO-TIME, Neighbors!!!
As you may already know, the San Diego City Planning Commission showed its true colors by ignoring a unanimous decision by our dedicated CMR/SS Community Council to reject the current Alante Project proposal. Brian's stellar presentation fell upon deaf ears.
HERE'S THE GOOD NEWS:
The City Planning Commission's recommendation is just that, a recommendation to be considered by San Diego City Council members when casting the final vote.
We must communicate our strong opposition to the Alante project with a tsunami of email correspondence and phone calls from you, the community. .
The Goal: To email and call EVERY San Diego City Council member

History of Carmel Mountain Ranch
The Carmel Mountain Ranch area was once part of a Mexican land grant that dates to the 1820s. In 1905, the Carmelite Sisters of Mercy established a dairy farm and monastery in the area. Carmel Mountain, a Biblical reference to Mount Carmel, takes its names from the nuns.
In 1984, the San Diego City Council approved and adopted the first Carmel Mountain Ranch Community Plan.
