Position Oppose
Comments There are several negative outcomes to be had with this development plan including evacuation safety, flood control issues and over crowding as you have been made aware.
We moved here 2 years ago to get out of the craziness of LA County. We are not golfers, but enjoy the safety and security of the area, the quietness and the open view toward the mountains.

Comments NUWI promised homes, clubhouse, dog park, and an 18 hole golf course in Escondido. My cousin bought a lot and had his retirement home built by NUWI. The result is a 9 hole course, no dog park, clubhouse or restaurant. He has been very
disappointed in the false information they provided and broken promises. They will repeat this scam in Camarillo Springs.

Email = [email protected]
Comments = Hello,My name is Cheryl Novak and I currently live above the 7th hole of the Camarillo Springs Golf Course.I have written to you in the past in support of the New West Golf Course. However, after looking over the latest proposed plans for the new project, I realize that I have been duped by New West who I believed were giving true and accurate statements to me and after recently doing some due diligence on my own, I am completely opposed to allowing the project to go forward for the following reasons.New West has lied to me and many others currently living in the mobile home park at Camarillo Springs. I was told directly by New West that the 240 proposed houses would not interfere with our views and would not in any way harm the beautiful wildlife that currently live around our beautiful community. As I said in the first paragraph of this letter, I live above the 7th hole of the current golf course, and after looking over the newest plans, I now realize that I will be living above the recreational area with a pool and pickle ball courts, among other amenities included therein, but not available to the rest of the Camarillo Springs community. I do not want to look at a recreation area from my porch or listen to pickle ball and parties all night. Since it's a recreational area, it will be loud and disruptive to the current homeowners.If the proposed plan is approved, it will not only lower the value of my house, but will also lower the value of many of the homes in the mobile home community.I am aware that the current owner of the golf course is not a nice person who will do whatever he can to make our lives miserable if the plans are not approved. This does not scare me as much as how it will impact the homes around the golf course.We built our home in 2017 after seeing the beautiful views we would have and how quiet and peaceful it was. However, our home's value and those surrounding the "new golf course" will definitely lower the value. We love it here but we cannot afford to lose any of our home's value.Please do not approve the plans for the so‐called new golf course and the 240 homes.Thank you for your time and the good work you do. I know your positions can be challenging and many of us appreciate all that you do for the City of Camarillo. Sincerely,Cheryl [email protected]‐657‐9002 Client IP = 47.144.6.110

Position Support
Comments Representatives, it is time to approve the Camarillo Springs development project. The Council has had the developer take extraordinary measures to prove the viability of the project. It could even be argued that the requirements were onerous, as compared to other projects. The project is a win/win. There will be improved drainage and flood control. There will be additional much needed housing for seniors. We avoid the blight of a closed golf course, which will undoubtedly bring trash and homeless (already there). It will improve the roadway which currently closes with minimal rain. It will bring back golfers and their money to the area. The long-touted golfing in Camarillo will no longer be a "joke" to golfers in SoCal. All these benefits will enhance the safety and quality of life and recreation for neighbors of the property. As a community member, I hear others' comments. Most are
misinformed. Most (as all group) simply don't want to lose their views. As we all know, views in California are not a legal entitlement. In the case of The Springs, it may be argued we are "entitled" to a golf course, as the neighborhood was marketed and approved as a golf course community.
Representatives, please allow the developer to bring this project to our community.

Comments I have played golf at Camarillo Springs for over 40yrs, just played there Oct 30, 2023, I must say it's horrible. I have been against this development from the beginning, but nothing is being done about this golf course and its surroundings, I have now changed my position on the matter, something has to be done with this golf course and community,it just can't
continue like this, any course, whether it's 9 holes, 12 holes, whatever, it needs to be replaced with something new and dynamic, so please help this community and approve this project, doing nothing is not working.

Comments Reducing the size of the golf course may cut down the number of golfers needed to support the course. What then? Will the owners give the course to the city, close the course, sell the remaining course. We've surveyed lot's of golfers there, and none that we've asked want a smaller course. So I can only imagine, any support they have must be coming from people who want a new house, contractors, and realtors. If the council wants to protect recreational opportunities, open land, mental health, and the environment, please oppose the reduction of the golf course.

Item Number or Subject Camarillo Springs NUWI development Position Oppose
Comments Dear City Council members,
Thank you for your kind consideration.
It seems Opposition to Camarillo Springs development is based on;
¹ the attempt to coerce by threats of litigation, indicating force and fury are the developer's only means to their end. ² the constant morphing of plans and a willingness to blame Council for NUWI project delays
³ a dismissal of legitimate traffic, fire, oil seepage and flooding safety issues affecting community residents
⁴ the summary dismissal & denial of health, wildlife, quality of life, and destruction of the Golf Course itself, to satisfy the developer.
⁵ a continued barrage of marketing attempts to make it appear that the developer is contributing to the common good and "humanity," which is a laughable joke equating the human condition with their own interests.
⁶ omission of the Golf Course financial profitability as entered into the record at the last Council meeting.
⁷ Opposition to the project by virtually all residents immediately affected by its development.
Praying for your intentions regard- less of your vote, I urge you 1 to vote NO unanimously on the issue of Camarillo Springs Golf Course Development.
Thank you for your time and patience. Sincerely,
Robert Levine

Comments Will the installation and maintenance costs of elaborate flood control infrastructure be funded by tax increases on Camarillo residents? I am opposed to this and suggest that if the Council is undecided, put the issue on the ballot so residents can have a voice on the matter.
Further, will insurance companies write policies for either flood or fire insurance for the proposed properties? With weather events expected to become more and more severe in the future, insurance policies are becoming unavailable or premiums are becoming prohibitively expensive. The Council may be considered wise to disapprove this location for
development in favor of other less risky sites.

Comments Camarillo Golf Course is one of the very few natural gems in Camarillo. If you have never walked the course you should. It is so beautiful and peaceful. If you allow the development to go through it will look like Orange County and that is also what it will look like coming down the grade. The golf course needs an owner who will renovate it to its former glory and make it a place everyone wants to play at. That includes all the player from the valley when it gets to hot to play at their courses. Despite all that is going on and how the course has been neglected people from far and wide still like to play there. We don't need another senior development. We have too many as it is.

Item Number or Subject Camarillo Springs
Position Oppose
Comments At the last meeting of the City Council, there were several points that were brought up by people who are for building a senior housing development on a part of the existing golf course. As seniors happy to be long-time residents of
Camarillo, we take issue with the following:
That seniors should sell their homes in town in order to make them available for young people to buy. These seniors should then downsize to the units that would be built on the existing golf course.
First of all, most young people cannot afford to buy a house at current prices. Secondly, as seniors, if we were to sell our house, we would not want to live in the proposed housing because of all the potential problems - i.e. flooding, traffic, poor air quality, fire etc.
Another speaker said that seniors do not drive much, so there is no problem with traffic and poor air quality. We think that that gentleman was speaking for himself, because we do as much or more driving since we’re retired.
It would also be worth pointing out that if there were to be an emergency evacuation, the number of daily trips would make no difference to the dangerous traffic jam that would result because of the limited access to safety.
1 Yet another speaker claimed that the majority of Camarillo Springs residents are pro development. We think it was very obvious, based on the number of people who showed up to oppose it, that the statement was false.
We urge the City Council to put an end to this uncertainty, and once and for all, deny the developer’s request.
Furthermore, we think that the City should purchase the golf course and refurbish it. It has the potential to be an exceptional golf course that would attract many players. The city now spends generous amounts to provide a wide range of sporting facilities for the citizens of Camarillo. We feel that it would be reasonable to provide the same for the many people whose only sporting activity is golf.

Comments I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed housing project at Camarillo Springs Golf Course. Given the predictable increase in extreme weather caused by climate change, it is clearly a bad idea to build more houses in a flood-prone area with limited evacuation routes. Additionally, the limited evacuation routes significantly add to the potential catastrophe when the next wildfire blows through that area.
The City of Camarillo has more than satisfied the State requirement for new dwellings, so there is no compelling pressure to continue with this project. I urge you to vote no at this review.

Item Number or Subject Camarillo Springs Rezoning
Position Oppose
Comments My name is Michael Quigley. My wife and I have owned a home since 2007 in the Courtyards at Camarillo development.
Our address is 44 Calle Cataluna. In fact, our house backs up and looks over the former pond that has been leaking oil for the last several years. It is now being filled in with dirt.
We strongly oppose any rezoning and building on the existing golf course because of several reasons, with the largest reason being in our opinion the existing Camarillo Springs and Ridgeview Roads cannot accommodate the additional traffic flow.
My wife and I also own an insurance agency that is located at 803 Camarillo Springs Road. During the 2018 fire when
mandatory evacuations were ordered, the traffic was
gridlocked for hours trying to leave the area. And as I am typing this note to you I am looking out of my office window at Camarillo Springs Road. On a day in and day out basis I have been shocked at how much traffic already is on this road. It's more than I ever expected.
I understand the need for more housing in Southern California given the current stock shortage, but I am convinced this is not the place to do it.
Please do not approve building on the golf course.

Comments Dear Council Members,
I have written several letters to you & as a resident of Camarillo Springs, I am urging you to vote YES on this
development. I am aware that they have many vocal residents (?) on their side, however, I believe there are just as many who are for this development that are not as vocal.. This
development company has complied with every regulation & requirement
the Camarillo City Council has asked of them... & they have come through with expert plans & solutions to every one of them. I really really hope that every council member has gone through these plans with a fine tooth comb, to make sure the opposition is just not making things up to keep this project from going forward... They have met all the requirements of the Environmental concerns as well as the Flooding &
everything else the Council has asked of them... My husband, Bruce Johnson, who spoke at the 10/25 meeting, was a
Project Manager on many very large projects.. One of his projects was for the Disney California Adventure Resort Site Logistics Manager, & Project Manager Make Ready Projects… Another being the Fontana Park Project in San Bernardino County. Another Los Angeles Valley College Administration Building.. as well as many others. He has looked over the plans & projects of the NWUI developers & according to him, they are spot on… I hope you are all well versed on this 1 project & what it will mean for our community…Instead of a weed patch, which is the first piece of property everyone sees upon entering Camarillo from the 101 North.. Do we want to be known for that? Camarillo is in desperate need for a well managed, well kept Senior Community that will only add to the beauty of Camarillo, as well as fixing all the problems associated with this golf course & infrastructure.. I hope, with all my heart, you really know what your doing if you say NO to this project.. Put your thinking caps on & think of the future ..
This project will add to the enhancement of Camarillo. Don’t let the nay sayers short sightedness blind you to the long term benefits for Camarillo Springs. They frankly have no clue of what it can do to the value of Camarillo Springs.. My husband got up & spoke 2 weeks ago because he heard so
many untruths.. It was pretty sad that these people were allowed to get up & say all these things without rebuttal.
Please please look at this project & say to yourselves, was it fair for us to put this company through almost 7 years & an unspeakable amount of time, & money only to not allow it..? In our book, they have met every requirement you have asked for.. Just be fair & allow this project to go forward so Camarillo can be proud..

Comments I have lived in Camarillo since 1969 & moved to The Springs 11 years ago, just 6 months before the 1st fire. The 2nd fire was devastating in that it took almost 2 hours to exit the community! The additional over 200 houses proposed would make any future situation even worse. I do not believe that the proposed new restaurant and club house will ever come to fruition. Also, a 12 hole golf course does not seem viable and doesn't make any sense! I am a business owner in Camarillo for over 50 years & oppose this inappropriate housing growth & gradual degradation of the golf course. Bob Knutsen

Comments PLEASE, PLEASE do not approve the above project. We've lived in Camarillo Springs for 15 yrs. and have experienced the fires, the SLOW evacuation process, increase in traffic on the Conejo Grade, and many other reasons for not approving this project. We have fought long and hard to not bring in more housing, and alter the golf course. We live here and will live with the consequences of MORE traffic, MORE people, and MORE promises unfulfilled. Can't we just STOP and look at all of the pictures of the past problems we have supplied to the Council and end this? We have fought long and hard - why give in now? We lived in Ventura for 40 yrs. before moving to Camarillo, and everywhere I look now in Ventura, more
housing is being built on every empty plot of land. It is very disturbing how you can even consider such a project. Why is our land just being scooped up everytime we turn the corner for more housing. Why can't we just upgrade the golf course and forget the housing? The housing would bring an
additional 500+ cars to the Springs, not including visitors. It's unimaginable what will happen in the next fire - the Council needs to use common sense and listen to the People.
PLEASE.

Position Oppose
Comments November 4, 2023
I am unable to attend the November 8th meeting but would like my voice heard. I am a Realtor for 25 years and live in Camarillo Springs for the past two years. I purchased my home in The Springs because of the golf course and "The Springs". The golf course has been designated open space and should remain open space. I do not live directly on the golf course but feel sorry for the homeowners that do as they paid a premium for those lots. View lots always cost more to buy. I am sure if the project gets approved, the developer will charge more for the units he plans to build that will boarder the revised golf course which will be ironic since he will be destroying current homeowner’s views in the process.
Why did the current owner buy this golf course in the first place? Was it because he loves the sport of golf or was his plan always to neglect the course and plea his case for the course reduction and development of the land for profit? Who is to say that down the road this developer won't want to change the 12-hole course into a 9-hole course for the same reasons they are giving now?
I have heard from residents that have lived here during the fires and landslides that the emergency evacuation was a 1 TOTAL DISASTER as it took some homeowners over an hour to exit the community. Can you imagine how frightening that would be to see fire on the mountains and not be able to drive out of your community due to gridlock? Adding more homes to the community will increase the time it takes to exit when the next mandatory evacuation happens. This delay could cause the loss of life.
The land where the lake is currently located will be unstable to be built upon, causing potential lawsuits in the future.
The developer will be long gone and take no responsibility when this happens; any damages/repairs will be directed towards the City of Camarillo to fix and/or the homeowners will get some special assessment, neither of which is an acceptable solution to a problem that can be avoided.
Yes, there is a housing shortage. Yes, we need more senior housing, but not in Camarillo Springs. New York City has a housing shortage with many homeless people. You don't see the Mayor of that City decommissioning Central Park to allow new housing.
I oppose the zoning change. Please save Camarillo Springs from being mutilated due to profit and greed.
Thank you for your consideration.

Item Number or Subject Referral for NUWI Camarillo, LLC Position Oppose
Comments Estimated Council members,
my name is Alfonso Pertierra Boto and I live in Camarillo Springs since 2005. I'm here to request opposing the approval of the NUWI project to change the golf course planning and allowing them building new homes.
We have listened to our neighbors stating their reasons for the support of such project, funny enough, their arguments only prove that they should actually oppose the project.
They want to keep the jobs that the golf course provides. We do too. In fact, opposing the construction is the only way those jobs can be kept. If the construction starts they will have to close the golf course to prepare the land and
(supposedly) make a new 12 golf course. Of course, during the time of the construction (that could take a few years) those employees will not be supported by Mr. Richardson getting paid for working on a closed golf course.
The have complained about the lack of maintenance in the golf course and the security issues due lack of maintenance as a reason to approve it, but again, while the construction is done (several years) nobody is going to maintain or keep the area secure, as there is no point on maintaining a closed golf course.
A lady stated that when she would like to approve it because when there were the issues with the mud slides in the area the city was so helpful and provided the resources to help with 1 the problem. Again, THE CITY provided, and THE CITY will be the one needing to provide if the project is approved and there are flooding issues or other type of problems causes by the construction. It won't be the constructor, that will already have collected his earnings and leave, but the City of Camarillo who will have to PAY to correct the situations.
There were arguments about the viability of the golf course and how much it would cost to make it "viable" again. You have to think who is responsible for that. Mr. Richardson bought the golf course with the only intention of construction, and made his argument the lack of profitability of the golf course. In order to prove that lack of profitability they have neglected the proper maintenance of the property to force the cost of making it viable to increase and that way be able to present the golf course as a non-profitable business, even if the numbers say otherwise, so it's like if you don't feed your cattle and then complain that the cows don't produce enough milk, maybe should try feeding them first.
They stated that the traffic will not be affected, since the homes will be marketed for 55 and older. As far as I know, retirement age is 65, meaning that a person 55 and older has the same movement needs than a person 35 or 45 (specially when we are talking about commuting to work). Also, that the area is classified for 55 and older just means that at least 80% of the residents are 55 or older, leaving the other 20% open to be bought by people below 55.
Another lady stated how beneficial that would be moving older residents to a new area so they can sell their bigger houses to new families so houses would be put for sale "at reasonable prices'. An older person living in a big house is not going to sell his/her house for cheap, but at the market's price, and for sure for quite a lot more than the new homes they are buying (they are not going to buy a smaller home for more than their big home price), so new families will see homes for sale... for huge prices... and you will have senior citizens (some with mobility issues) moved into an area that is classified with a very high risk for fires, so when they have to run away due a fire closing up, they will be the ones with the most issues.
Adding to that, the NUWI representative complained about the city being too strict when it comes to safety, but that's precisely what the city should be doing. Like the old say states "prepare for the worst, hope for the best". You can't assure security just preparing for the best cases scenarios, you have to prepare for the worst, because we are not playing a videogame, you are safeguarding human lives and
properties.
The area is a flood plain. The plan provided from NUWI can't assure that will mitigate the risks of flooding and will most probably increase them (based on your own staff
conclusions). That by itself should be enough of a reason to reject this project. Having no additional need for that number of homes in the actual plan, and given the disadvantages that will create to the community should be just the "cream on the pie".
For all these reasons, I please request that you deny NUWI the authorization to continue with this bad-planned
2 modification.
Thank you for your time.

Re: 11/08/23 Agenda Item S: Triennial Review of Referral for NUWI Camarillo, LLC
Dear Mayor Santangelo and the City Council of the City of Camarillo:
This law firm represents NUWI Camarillo, LLC (“NUWI” or “Applicant”). On behalf of NUWI, we are once again writing to express our deep concerns about the findings of the October 25, 2023 Agenda Report, which have not been remedied despite the fact the City Council has continued its deliberation and decision on the Triennial Review of the Referral for General Plan Amendment (“GPA”) 2017-2, in relation to the Camarillo Springs Project (“Project”).
Specifically, the Agenda Report makes several unsupportable and eleventh hour claims of vague “General Plan impacts” that: (1) have never been raised before, despite being allegedly based on facts that have remained unchanged since inception of the Project; (2) contradict the facts in the City’s own administrative record and the findings presented in the City’s own EIR; and (3) seem clearly intended to provide the City Council with potential—yet grossly insufficient—post-hoc grounds to rescind the Referral. For all the reasons previously set forth in our October 25, 2023 letter, rescinding the Referral at the Triennial Review, on the basis of these unsupportable findings, instead of allowing the Project to move forward to a hearing on the merits, would violate due process, violate the City’s own City Council Policy 7.01, constitute an arbitrary and capricious act, and result in the taking of private property without just compensation.
Once again, this Project has been pending since 2017, and has already been subject to the City’s September 27, 2017 Referral for GPA 2017-2, and the City’s September 23, 2020 Triennial Review. At no time during the September 2017 or September 2020 reviews did staff City Council, City of Camarillo
November 7, 2023
raise concerns about the consistency of the proposed Project with the General Plan. Further, the City’s own EIR did not identify any of the General Plan inconsistencies that are now alleged in the October 25, 2023 Agenda Report. Instead, the City’s EIR determines that the project is consistent with the General Plan in relation to open space, parkland, aesthetics and views, and wildfire. (EIR, pp. 5.10-6, 5.10-7 et seq. [Table 5.10-2].) We are at a loss to understand how City staff now has suddenly, six years into this process, determined otherwise. The only explanation is that staff has been directed to try and fashion some possible grounds, no matter how tenuous, upon which the Council can kill the Project without holding a proper hearing on its merits.
NUWI has invested millions of dollars into this process, in good faith. NUWI has revised technical reports, redesigned the project’s hydrology system to far exceed the standards imposed by the County and FEMA at the request of the City, and attempted to work collaboratively with the City and its third party consultants at every opportunity. NUWI similarly deserves for the City to also act in good faith and allow the Project to move forward to a full hearing on the merits.
Finally, as we previously pointed out, if the City wishes to allow only the present use and configuration of the golf course, the City’s own financial and business consultants have determined this to be economically infeasible. To allow NUWI no viable development option constitutes a taking of private property, without just compensation. As the City is aware, this project will reconfigure the remaining portion of the course to not just a more viable model, but a model that is necessary to ensure the course’s continued survival. The findings of the City’s own Business Analysis of the Camarillo Springs Golf Course, prepared by NGF Consulting, asserts the following:
• “The observed financial condition of CSGC in 2023 is not sustainable and will eventually lead to total system failure and the facility’s inability to earn enough revenue to cover basic expenses” (p. 2).
• “The CSGC property is set up well to accommodate some form of facility alteration that would involve a reduction in the number of golf holes and new property available for alternate development” (p. 2).
• “If undertaken, altering CSGC to a high-quality golf course (9 or 12 holes) that will be more desirable than a poor-quality 18-hole golf course will be beneficial to CGC and the City of Camarillo” (p. 2).
• “Camarillo Springs GC is an aging golf facility that had been experiencing declining participation but gained a significant boost with a surge in golf interest in the last 203 years, although this too may be waning. Despite the increase in activity and revenue in 2020-2022 the facility still has an urgent need for new capital investment to enhance the golf course and clubhouse. Without this new investment, it is not likely that the CSGC facility can earn the revenue it needs City Council, City of Camarillo
November 7, 2023
to sustain itself for the longer term, and thus the NGF does not see this as a viable golf facility business enterprise in its current condition” (p. 6).
The report concludes that the course requires at least $6.8 million of new capital, and in its current configuration loses money every year. Yet, the City will not allow NUWI to reconfigure the course, despite the fact that such reconfiguration and investment is necessary to maintaining a viable enterprise. NUWI’s project invests that required new capital.
We urge the City Council to again review our letter of October 25, 2023, included within the Agenda Packet for additional detail on the issues raised herein.
Sincerely,
Jennifer J. Lynch

Ristin Wilson Landscape Design 11-5-23
Hello City Council,
I’m in agreement of retirement condos and golf course renovation.
I would like to share two items with you.
I just graduated with my Landscape Architecture Master’s Degree.
From my experience golf courses are placed to hold water in severe rainstorms.
Because they have the capacity. And our golf course has a huge water shed with the collection form the Newbury Park community into our creek on the mountain and into our golf course. The first item is that the engineering defeat of the new design will be successful. A 100 year flood in January was 2” of rain in little over a day. And a 500 year flood will be 30” of rainfall in a day or two. If New Urban West says they have designed plans and the environmental impact reports says is it sustainable and true, then the design will hold this amount of water for even a 500 year storm. Now, with my experience with dealing with cities is that there are installation inspections by city officials and the construction phase can not be completed until in compliance and approved by officials on a regular basis.
This is how the new drainage system will be built.
And the second thing I would like to mention is the system design of the water structure is based on engineering calculations and also is approved and submitted to the city with staff approving and reviewing all design principles and calculations.
I leave you with how wonderful to build a community golf course and restaurant and event center for all of us Camarillo Springs Residences to visit. And how wonderful to develop medium income retirement homes to sustain the dual design. I am so impressed with the nature of the golf course being preserved to its best possible design solution. I am excited for the future of Camarillo Springs and the community to be built upon.
Sincerely, Ristin Wilson

Comments My concern is the evacuation problems. I need proof that the entire area of homes in this Camarillo Springs area CAN EVACUATE out of here without anyone getting killed because of too many residents trying to get out of here. Have we not learned anything from the fires that were in Maui some
months ago. Where people were burned to death in their cars! I was a stewardess for a major airline over 35 years and had to prove that we could evacuate 300 passengers in 90
seconds off an aircraft, grant you we had 8 emergency door exits, and 1 exit in the cockpit, and 12 other stewardesses on the aircraft to help. In Camarillo Springs we only have 2 roads to exit on! And LOTS OF RESIDENTS WHO ARE VERY
SENIOR. I need proof that we can evacuate out of Cam
Springs without killing anyone trying to do this. So let's have a practice evacuation to prove we can do this! Like a fireman stated there wouldn't be any problem evacuating out of here.
PROVE IT! Until there is proof, STOP THIS GPA-2017-2! You know this cannot be done. Look at Maui and what happened there! Thank you for allowing me to say this.

Comments Dear Mayor and Council Members:
I wrote you recently about the misinformation being spread via numerous flyers by the "Oppose" group. Today I am
writing to urge you NOT to be swayed yourselves by the false claims that abound. Please keep your own minds clear on what is fact and what is fiction; what is wishful thinking and what is reality. Change is difficult for many to accept.
Progress is often painful. I'd love to keep things the way they are, plus needed golf course improvements. But that isn't going to happen - and the best alternative, in my opinion, is the development of the senior community proposed by New Urban West. Please allow the project to move forward and, when the time finally arrives, approve it for the betterment of Camarillo Springs and for the City of Camarillo.
Thank you!

Comments I completely oppose this reckless. dangerous venture that directly affects my against, frail mother. During past
evacuations they shut off her access to highway 101 so she couldn’t escape or get out that way and so they direct the 101 traffic down through her narrow one escape route and so the 101 traffic is competing with residents for the ONLY way out creating an extreme fire risk. It's unconscionable. It is so bad already that there is no way you should allow more people in.
It is a death trap. This area is already known as severe fire risk.

Comments Mayor and Council Members
My name is John Gardner and I live on the golf course at Camarillo Springs. I have spoken on several occasions in favor of this project so I will not speak further on the needs and benefits of the project which should be obvious to all.
I find it difficult to comment on our proceedings tonight in advance of hearing your thoughts both pro and con. I can only imagine how difficult it must be to decide on complex matters realizing that there are lots of loud voices, and colored shirts which represent opinions, but you should be guided by facts rather than opinions.
As I understand, the new homes, refurbished golf course, new clubhouse, new pro shop and new event center create no
unmitigatable impact as confirmed by your own EIR report.
The point of controversy seems to rest on the effectiveness of the flood mitigation design for 154 CCV homes which, also per your own EIR, will function as designed in a 100 year flood scenario which is the historical standard required by the city and FEMA for most prior projects. The EIR also confirms that the designs will also be effective in a 500 year flood, and multiple days of continuous rain.
1 All of these standards are far in excess of any reasonable or prior criteria used by the city but, allowing for an abundance of caution I am delighted to know that these standards can be met.
However, what I cannot understand is what flawed rationale is in play to expect the proposed design to withstand a 1,000 year flood, and a last minute requirement for a spillway. There seems to be no legitimate rational to hold this project to these never before standards, unless …
Unless there is now, and perhaps been all along, a search to find some one or several things that could be used to justify a vote against this project. Perhaps the very subjective and unsubstantiated phrase that has been published by the city that the project will result in “significant and unavoidable impact” is enough to do the trick. If I believed the summary conclusion, I wouldn’t vote for it either.
That statement, except for the specious 1,000 flood
requirement and latest idea for a spillway bears no
resemblance to the finding in your own EIR and related
financial and golf studies.
New Urban West has in good faith invested millions over the past 6 years to go many extra miles to accommodate and
meet the ever changing and ever-increasing demands of city staff.
I think it would be a terrible example of bad faith on the part of the city to deny this project on based on exaggerated and escalating mitigation requirements given that in all less onerous scenarios, all residents of the Camarillo Springs community would be better protected from flooding with the completion of the project than they are today which is the “do no harm” gold standard for any development project.
I am hopeful you will make a fair and a well-informed decision in favor of this project that has enormous benefits for our entire community.

Comments Ron Richards bought a golf course and not a housing development.
He hired a developer to design a housing project.
The developer failed to deliver a housing plan that was safe, practical, and suitable to the city of Camarillo nor its residents.
The City of Camarillo need not continue to enable Mr.
Richard's quest for profit.
Ron Richards owns a golf course and nothing else in
Camarillo.
It's his to do with what he prefers assuming it's legal.
Sometimes investors loose.

Comments I live on the 7th fairway of the Camarillo Springs golf course and I can see the first tee box out my back door. every day the golfers tee off from sun up to sunset. Is that not how a golf course makes money and provides recreation and open space for the citizens who play the game? The developer is selling there plan on the promise of a new 12 hole course. I'm a golfer and I only want to play an 18 hole course like the one we have. Please rescind the proposed zoning change and let's all be done with this madness once and for all. Thanks, Max Fowler

Item Number or Subject S: Triennial Review of Referral for NUWI Camarillo, LLC Position Not Applicable
Comments Local machine tool manufacturer Haas Automation is struggling every day to find a viable, local workforce to fill its needs in Ventura County but the lack of local housing is a exacerbating the problem. Haas is already looking out-of- County for its next expansion and other businesses, including some in Camarillo, are doing the same. I urge the City of Camarillo to take seriously the need to develop all reasonable housing alternatives to help fill the demand. The attached letter adds to our comments provided at the previous City Council meeting.

To: The Honorable Susan Santangelo and Members of the City Council
Re: AGENDA ITEM S - Triennial Review of Referral for NUWI Camarillo, LLC
Please accept this comment letter in addition to the input I provided at the previous City Council meeting. Continuation of the previous meeting allows for more expert testimony and comment to be provided today, which strengthens the case for the Camarillo Springs senior citizen housing project, and only increasing our support for the project.
Haas Automation has employed hundreds of Camarillo residents over nearly three decades in the Ventura County community and has active operations and investments within the city limits. The housing crisis in Ventura County has gotten worse year-by-year, with the situations becoming dire for employers like Haas Automation and others. Increasingly, we find ourselves unable to maintain a local workforce or recruit new employees to the area due to the lack of available housing.
The community’s welcoming business environment that first brought Haas and many of our other large local employers to the county since the 1990s seems to be a thing of the past, with local governments uninterested in the needs of local business. Those same businesses that employ a local workforce and pay critical local taxes.
Please work cooperatively with builders to figure out a way to make existing proposed projects work, rather than rejecting them in the hope that some other perfect project will come along, allowing you to fix our community’s problems without upsetting the perennial naysayers.
Sincerely,
Peter Zierhut
Vice President, Outside Operations

Re: City Council Meeting November 8, 2023, Agenda Item S: Triennial Review of Referral for NUWI Camarillo, LLC
Dear Mayor Santangelo and Honorable Members of the City Council:
The Ventura County Coalition of Labor, Agriculture, and Business (VC CoLAB) is a non-profit advocacy organization representing over 690 members throughout Ventura County and Southern California. Our diverse membership includes agriculture, commercial business, manufacturing, construction, real estate, finance, transportation, energy, and property owners who support our efforts to advocate for reasonable regulatory processes and a robust local economy.
The City has expressed concern regarding the potential for impacts, including risks associated with the most exceptionally rare and unlikely flooding events, applying flood risk standards far in excess of current industry standards. VC CoLAB is concerned that the City is setting a new – and unachievable – standard that will prevent the City from benefiting from much needed new housing and economic development projects in the future. However, the only way to fully evaluate and assess the City’s expressed concerns and develop the appropriate mitigation to address any perceived risks is to allow the project to proceed to the process that already exists in the City’s planning and permitting application process and CEQA.
We urge you to allow the NUWI project to move forward to progress through the City’s planning and permitting process for a development project. This will allow for further analysis of any reasonable risks and impacts and identify the proper mitigation to address the City’s concerns.
Sincerely,
Louise Lampara
Executive Director
City of Camarillo

They are asking questions about the type of housing available in Ventura County for older adults. The house they live in is too big, requires extensive energy and finances to maintain .
Then are not ready for Assisted Living. Camarillo Springs would offer a superb middle housing option.
I have listened to the opposing side and couldn't help but think, if it is a inappropriate place to build, why do they live there?

Only 2 ways out of here. In 2018 it took hours for everyone to evacuate! We need proof that all can get out of here without having
residents get burned to death just like in Maui! Just because the fire department states that we can all get evacuated because of a fire, doesn't mean we can. We need to have a practice evacuation prove we can, or can't! I'm a former flight attendant for a major airline, and we would have to PROVE THE WE COULD GET 300 PASSENGERS OUT OF AN
AIRCRAFT IN 90 SECONDS! Or the FAA wouldn't allow us to fly the aircraft.

Item Number or Subject The Camarillo Springs Golf Course Development Position Oppose
Comments I can't believe the city is considering building over 200 new homes when the community does not have the water or traffic relief for sll these new homes. When you can reduce my
water, sewage rates, and traffic congestion THEN I'll support additional housing. Please vote no on the Camarillo Springs development.Thank you.
