Davis...You are surrounded
County pressured to build
By Elisabeth Sherwin/Enterprise staff writer
WOODLAND -Developers are proposing housing, commercial development and industrial uses on 4,297 acres of farmland in Yolo County in 13 applications pending before the county Planning Department, the Board of Supervisors learned this week.
Three of the applications are for subdivisions on 1,146 acres to the north, east and south of Davis - the Oeste Ranch subdivision west of Sutter Davis Hospital, the Mace-Covell Gateway Project north and east of the Mace Boulevard curve and El Macero Creek south of El Macero.
A building moratorium placed on Davis by the county will come to an end in June.
I think there will be suicides when they learn that a WallyWorld will go in on County land adjacent to the city. It will be a sight to behold, the council and county supervisor meetings that is. If the city is smart, it will wrestle a revenue sharing agreement out of the County of Yolo. If not, the taxpayers of Davis will end up subsidizing these outlying unincorporated developments. I guess this is one way to grow a city.
