Welcome, thank-you for coming, and introductions of guest presenters Ken Chriss and Tony Frost regarding the proposed Ventana project on Crouch Street.

Greg explained the reason for the combined meeting was to accommodate vacations by Loma Alta community members and to allow time to create the ballot and election process as specified in the Loma Alta Neighborhood Association Bylaws. Secretary Treasurer Jan Roche began passing out Loma Alta election ballots.

Preliminary Information: Traffic circle on South Barnwell at Corto, late night parties on Hoover, speeding at Mesa and Barnwell, undesirable activities at Penkea and Hoover, “Historic Loma Alta” monument sign update.

Oceanside Police Department’s Cpl. Karla Williams was scheduled to attend but did not appear. A subsequent phone call explained Cpl. William’s absence as an illness.

Developer Presentation:

Mr. Chriss and Mr. Frost presented their new version of The Ventana project. It was clear that the recommendations and focus group findings put

forward by the group were well received. The newly designed project features entrance and exit from Canyon Blvd. NOT Crouch Street and three houses instead of two as suggested in the focus group findings. Please see the Ventana Focus Group Findings on the LANA Website at the “New” Blinking Arrow.

At the conclusion of the presentation, Frost and Chriss received an ovation by the entire group and several members commended them for seriously considering our suggestions and acting upon them.
