ISSUE 25 is developer-sponsored and developer-written.

The Promenade developers want to create

their OWN district, with their OWN set of rules

that are completely different from the rules

every other developer and resident must follow.

ISSUE 25 ties the hands of our local representatives.

ISSUE 25 guarantees that developers can build what they want,

when they want it, exactly the way they want to build it!

If ISSUE 25 passes, there will be no turning back.

A precedent will be set.

Large, mass-market, big-box retail stores

attract secondary and marginal stores.

Once started, Hudson is on track to follow the pattern of

our neighboring communities, as strip mall follows strip mall.

Since ISSUE 25 would establish a new zoning classification,

a big-box strip plaza could be in the near future

for every quadrant of the city!

This is NOT just a simple project on a corner lot.

Hundreds of acres are at stake!

See map under "Our Future."

There are lots of promises and even some pretty architect renderings,

but the only thing we can count on is

the legal wording of the ordinance and all of it's implications.

Go directly to the proposed Ordinance.

Now is the time to learn more so you can make an informed decision on November 2.  Once you know the facts, we think you will also Vote "NO" on Issue 25.

Look for Smart Growth presentations on HCTV - Channel 25.
