Community Involvement

Point: 

The development program contained in the initiative makes use of public feedback provided at numerous community meetings. (Source: Initiative, sec. 3(k).)

Counterpoint: 

The public was not involved in writing the initiative or the development agreement/contract. The initiative gives the developer the power to pick and choose only the parts of the plan it wishes to develop and to develop them on a schedule of its own choosing. The contract also diminishes city control over the execution of the plan, in effect handing over the community vision to SunCal to do as they see fit.
