Industrialization belongs near freeways where there is easy access to a large number of commuters.
This area is remote, rural and primarily residential and agricultural. Costs to improve infrastructure to provide better access to this area would be borne by YOU the taxpayer. Redevelopment is the answer to providing industrial space, while at the same time improving the city in general. Ruining this rural community will only add to the taxpayers' burden and by decreasing the value of properties will further degrade the quality of Escondido's schools. The increased land use will contribute to our higher energy costs and potential water shortages.
