Community of Interest Worksheet (2021 Redistricting)
Name: Marie E Bowen
Email Address:
Are you a resident of
Napa?
Yes
1) What is the nature of
the common social or
economic interest of
your community? You
can describe what the
common interests of
your community are
and why or how they
are important.
Rohlffs Manor, within District 2: a 55+ residence for ca 300 'seniors,' many of whom are still employed and the remainder retired. Because of Covid, not much is happening in the way of socializing at this time. Maybe the greatest common interest is in maintaining the city's currently very satisfactory transit service and the prompt and very frequent visits by EMTs and
ambulances. Living within walking distance of one of the city's largest 'county islands' seems not to be of concern to anyone, and I realize that topic is not necessarily within the scope of this survey. Note our proximity to The Vintage at Napa and Redwood Retirement Center on the north side of Redwood Road, which are within District 1 but which most likely have the same interests as residents of Rohlffs Manor.
2) Where is your
community located?
You can define it by
neighborhood, streets,
address, proximity to a
key landmark (such as
a school or community
center), or other
boundaries.
Rohlffs Manor, Sutherland-Baywood-W. Pueblo-Linda Vista Avenues, a few blocks south of Redwood Road and about a mile west of Solano Avenue3) What are the
geographic
definers/boundaries of
your neighborhood?
Examples of
definers/boundaries
could be highways,
roads, rivers, hills, or
Highway 29 to the east with Lincoln Avenue overpass to the south, Redwood Creek to the west, Browns Valley to the SW, Sutherland Park across the street on Baywood (which,
irrelevantly, has become an unleashed dog park, and some of Rohlffs residents no longer feel comfortable visiting it so, in effect, there is no park there).

parks.
4) What is the rationale
for your community of
interest to be used in
this districting? Please
describe how the
issues before the City
Council have a unique
impact on your group.
Here is where I fall short on comments. As I mentioned above, we mostly appreciate transit and EMTs! However, it would be wise to have a better water usage plan at this site and that is something that only management can address--way too much water is being used by residents for personal plantings in areas designated to be left as 'common areas.' This results in a lot of color and beauty, but it also costs a lot of water. Beyond that, our residents live within the rules (well, more or less), established by EAH, the owner of Rohlffs Manor.
5) What do you like
about the current
district lines? What do
you dislike about the
current district lines?
My only comment about current district lines is that it seems The Vintage at Napa and Redwood Retirement Center (and even Aegis), with addresses on the north side of Redwood Road, should be included in the same district as Rohlffs Manor given the purpose of all these residences. There is strength in numbers.... I can see that using Redwood Road as a dividing line between Districts 1 and 2 is not inappropriate but perhaps that dividing line can be adjusted to wend around the north side of The Vintage and Redwood Retirement parcels.
