in response to concernpreschoolteacher:  I can see why they
don;t have tax revenue. Like me alot of santa paulan's go to
Ventura and Oxnard to shop because we do not have any major
stores here. just a bunch of Dollar stores. get some real
business here.  This is a Catch-22: 'major stores' will not come
until Santa Paula's come out to shop. Larger stores do a market
analysis. They look for "roof tops" (number of households) and
traffic (both number of cars on the business streets as well as
number of people walking). This is the reason SP has not been
able to attract another grocery store (like a Ralphs or
Albertson). SP missed the boat when they stopped the Fagan
Canyon project. That would have added to the number of
households and most importatly brought traffic in. The traffic
issue is what primarily got it voted down, BUT you can't have it
all. Very short-signed of SP voters. Now paying the price.
