Agoura Hills Residents Push Big Box Referendum
The content that follows was originally published on the Institute for Local Self-Reliance website at http://www.ilsr.org/agoura-hills-residents-push-big-box-referendum/Hoping to protect their community’s semi-rural landscape and lifestyle, a group of residents and small business owners in Agoura Hills, California are pushing for a ballot initiative that would ban retail stores larger than 60,000 square feet. Agoura Hills is a town of 20,000 people located about 35 miles north of Los Angeles.
Citizens for Responsible Development (CRD) began organizing earlier this year after a developer proposed building a 255,000 square foot retail complex south of Highway 101.
