Napa Valley at the crossroads George Caloyannidis

Mr. Caloyannidis dissects the issues facing us with the broad vision necessary for the task and perhaps with a bit of the passion we are all beginning to feel. His basic contention, that EIRs need to cast a wider net in their view of impacts (the impact say that a new resort in Calistoga has on traffic in AmCan, or that the new voters in new projects in AmCan or Napa Pipe will have on the ag preserve) and that we need to be thinking about long term solutions now, is right on the mark. The survival of the specialness of Napa, which I think everyone wants, is dependent on looking far down the road at the cumulative result of the decisions we might make today.

Several editorials have now presented the "big picture" case for a severe restriction on the development impacts that are producing a very real change in the quality of life that is our reason to live in Napa County.
