SOAR Protects Our County’s Open Space.

SOAR is a series of voter initiatives that protect open space and farmland by vote of the people.  The County SOAR requires a vote countywide before agricultural, rural or open space land in the unincorporated county can be rezoned for development. The eight voter-approved SOAR initiatives passed by the cities of Camarillo, Fillmore, Moorpark, Oxnard, Santa Paula, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks and Ventura require a citywide vote of approval for urban development beyond a City Urban Restriction Boundary (CURB), or, in the case of the City of Ventura, before rezoning agricultural land within the city’s sphere of influence. The Thousand Oaks SOAR initiative also protects open space and parks within the city.

🚨 Endangered Alert: The Rufous Hummingbird
From their 3,900-mile migratory journeys to their iridescent beauty, Rufous Hummingbirds are awe-inspiring. Yet, they're at a tipping point, with two-thirds of their population lost since 1970. They're a 'canary in the coal mine,' signaling larger ecological issues that affect us all. Here's how you can help:
🪟 Prevent glass collisions with window decals.
🌱 Opt for organic gardening & native plants.

Too bad the landowner behind my back fence just took out something like 500 Lemon tree;s or more off the historical lemon orchard at 4884 n. ventura ave. We loved seeing the Rufus Hummingbird zip around enjoying the lemon blooms and living in the orchard. There were so many they would zoom all over chasing each other away from their precious tree of choice.. Now there;s none or close to it and now developers want to steal the Ag Land to put in a MASSIVE for profit low-income farmworker housing where a beautiful orchard once stood and now never will again see another orchard here because they will try to use up all the farmable land so they can profit off the Low-Income Migrant Farmworkers and Their households as they put it. We dont want it. We want a orchard or horse corals you name it. Hopefully we will be able to have a public SOAR vote to protect the land for future farmers.
