ojai news at The Ojai Post :: blog, newspaper, events in Ojai, California

Thanks for posting this, Tyler. I have a collection of articles where journalists tout Ojai as free of chain stores.

Anyone can view them on Kenley's wiki: Formula Retail and Restaurant Establishments, under References.

Thanks, Tyler. The big mystery to me is why for all these years the Ojai leadership has not protected itself from the likes of Wallmart and Subway, with so much at stake, economy being one of the main stakes.

Maybe those in leadership positions lost touch with Ojai's, it's people's common interpretation of what is Ojai. I do believe they are rethinking their concept of Ojai, and hope they continue to move forward in preserving what's left, and rebuild what was lost, of the common interpretation of Ojai. There are plenty of locals who would work for a better Ojai, as we have seen lately. But I think they would be more comfortable furthering a goal embraced by leaders and the people rather than having to take drastic courses of action.

I would love for the council to work towards getting a burger joint for the teenagers of Ojai.

I would like them to work on adding more routes for the Trolley, particularly one that goes to Lake Casitas so the kids can take advantage of the Water Park when it opens daily. Now it is open only weekends.

The Lake has so many choices for everyone to benefit from: The Basket ball courts, Fishing, Boating, Bike riding, Hiking, Jogging, Picnicking, A restaurant, or simply a place to sit and relax. It would be nice to have a late trolley ride back from the Lake on one of the movie nights they put on up there.

When I think of Ojai, I always go back to the freedoms of where we could go, that is in my youth here, that are now fenced off. All I want is Ojai to open more and more opportunities for our young and old. The Trolley is literally the vehicle that can accomplish this without too much pain.

One of the main reasons I take drastic measures in preserving Ojai (wouldn't you consider impersonating Jimmy Stewart's Mr Smith, as drastic) is that when I
immigrated to CA twenty one
years ago,each township each had it's own autonomy and flavor.Now they are not only looking the same but merging with each other.Managed growth is about preserving what real value exists in small towns. Take a look at "Four Square Miles" for successful results.

Glad you are there Pete.
