Moratorium is Meaningless The council on Feb. 18 approved a moratorium that would prevent rezoning the Casta del Sol golf course for 45 days. It was an empty gesture, as there’s no proposal in front of the council. The developer will likely wait until after the November election to propose rezoning the golf course. Two council members have already indicated they favor rezoning, and this council has rezoned every property that’s come before it. Council members have been deaf to residents’ cries for protection on a wide range of quality-of-life issues. Residents shouldn’t repeat the mistake of trusting the council to represent them. Since voters cannot seem to unseat this council, they should at least take away the council’s power to rezone. The only meaningful solution is to pass the Mission Viejo Right to Vote Initiative whereby voters make zoning decisions. Connie Lee |
