Vote No On C

The Napa Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors voted unanimously to “Protect Napa — Vote No on Measure C”, at the recommendation of the NCC Government Affairs and Policies Committee. Please go to protectnapa.com or click the following link, for more information, and join us on June 5th to vote “NO on C”.

“The existing conservation regulations, the Ag Preserve, and Measures J and P have effectively protected our agricultural lands for decades. Without scientific evidence or the need to change our current regulatory system, the ambiguous language in Measure C would change the long-held standard that agriculture is the highest and best use of the land in Napa County. This is why I and all local agricultural organizations stand united against Measure C.”
-Dave Whitmer Retired Napa County Agricultural Commissioner
“I care a lot about the City of Napa’s watersheds. Right now we are working together with the county to gather data to put in place the right regulations. It is the best path to protect our watersheds. Let’s get this right and not pass poorly written regulations.”
-Jill Techel, Mayor of Napa
“I was able to work my way up from an immigrant farmworker to starting a farming business of my own. Measure C will make it virtually impossible for others who work hard to fulfill their dreams and start their own operation – it will ultimately hurt those who can least afford it.”
-Rolando Herrera, Farmer
“Measure C allows 795 acres of oak woodlands to be removed, and won’t do anything to enhance or improve water quality. Measure C is not the environmental safeguard we need, and will not protect our hillsides from development.”
-Elaine Honig, Former Sierra Club Board Member and Former President, Land Trust of Napa County
