MJW,
The property value argument is ridiculous. No one who can afford to live in Poway is settling on Ramona just because of our schools. We're already near the bottom of the barrel, and that's *with* excellent schools! Our test scores continually rank near the top, and that has not helped retain our values or kept businesses in Ramona. After the financing debacle next door in Poway, families there will be forced to relocate to Ramona just to stay afloat. Don't forget, nearly half of the money from this bond is already spent, and for what? Our district *can* get by on what they have and continue to provide excellent education. They just don't want to.

If this Bond passes, we will not be able to own a home. Seniors and people on fixed incomes cannot affort this. PLEASE

If you own a home or have business or have a job or are raising a family and would like Ramona to be a sustaining community… vote for the bond. It is one of about one option to keep Ramona on the map and prevent it from becoming a spec of dust. As a former resident and soon to return, I fear for the town of Ramona. If some stimulation from the school district and controlled growth does not occur, who will turn out the lights? Your children or grandchildren? Something to think about…

Like anyone in their right mind, would trust the School District. People need to understand, the amount that is Bond is going to raise Property Taxes. As a retired person, living on a fixed income, I cannot afford this increase. This bond must not pass.
