Voting in a Presidential and Voter-Nominated Primary Election
Every four years, political parties have a say as to who will be allowed to vote on their party’s presidential candidates. The upcoming Primary Election is no different.
This year the DEMOCRATIC PARTY, AMERICAN INDEPENDENT PARTY and LIBERTARIAN PARTY have chosen to “open” their ballot to Nonpartisan voters - also
known as - No Party Preference voters. As a registered Nonpartisan voter, you MAY select one of these political party ballots. By selecting one of the political party ballots, you will be able to vote for that party’s
presidential candidates in addition to candidates for voter-nominated (“top two”) and nonpartisan offices and measures. Selecting one of these political party ballots will not register you with that party.
The REPUBLICAN PARTY, GREEN PARTY, and PEACE & FREEDOM PARTY have
chosen to “close” their ballot to only those registered with their party. As a Nonpartisan voter, you will NOT be able to select one of these political party ballots, unless you re-register with the political party. You can re-register to vote at sdvote.com.
Most offices previously known as “partisan” are now known as “voter-nominated” (or “top two”) offices. Voter-nominated offices include U.S. congressional offices and state legislative offices. The “top two” vote-getters in these contests will advance to the November general election. They may both be registered with the same party or they may be registered with different parties.
For information provided by the State regarding the above mentioned political parties, please call (800) 345-8683.

SIMPLE. Your ballot arrives in your mailbox.
SMART. Make voting decisions and complete your ballot comfortably
at home.
SECURE. Seal your completed ballot in your postage paid envelope,
sign it, date it and return it by mail promptly so it is received well
before Election Day. During the seven days leading up to Election Day,
you may deposit your sealed ballot at one of many convenient drop-
off locations around the county. Or, drop it at the Registrar’s office now
or at any poll on Election Day.
Tip: Bring your mail ballot packet with you to SURRENDER should you
decide to vote at your polling place.
VERIFY. Verify your registration status, register or re-register to vote
before February 18. You can do so at sdvote.com.
Mark your selections on the sample ballot in advance so when you
go inside the voting booth, you can quickly fill in your official ballot.
Be sure to go to your assigned polling location between 7am and
8pm. Look on the back of this pamphlet to find your assigned poll.
Here are a few strategies to help make the voting process a more
convenient experience for all.

Election Day can be a hectic time of last minute decisions. With a little
preparation, the experience can be convenient and easy. Either way, we
will ensure every eligible vote is counted.
As a registered voter in San Diego County, provisional voting protects
your ability to vote. If you can’t make it to your poll, you forget to
bring your mail ballot to the poll, or your name is not on the voter list,
it is your right to receive a provisional ballot. But be prepared to spend
some time filling out the form on the provisional envelope. Also, if you
vote provisionally outside your assigned voting precinct, you may not
be voting on all the contests you are eligible to vote on. Here’s how to
avoid unnecessary provisional voting on Election Day:
Go to your ASSIGNED polling place: See back cover of this pamphlet
or go to sdvote.com.
Surrender Your Mail Ballot: If you decide to vote at your ASSIGNED
polling place instead of by mail, BRING your mail ballot packet with
you to the polls to be SURRENDERED.
Vote and Return Your Mail Ballot: Mail promptly, or deposit your
completed mail ballot at a drop-off location PRIOR to Election Day. See
drop-off locations in your mail ballot packet or online at sdvote.com.
Sign up now to become a mail ballot voter. Go to
sdvote.com and click on “Become A Mail Voter”

MIKE LEVIN AGE: 41U. S. Representative, 49th District
Congressmember Mike Levin makes a difference – for our communities and our families.
Mike Levin is not a career politician. When elected in 2018, Levin had worked for a decade in
the clean energy industry, creating good jobs in cutting-edge sustainable energy technology
and reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.
As our Representative, Mike Levin works across party lines to solve local problems. As a
member of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, Mike Levin has co-authored and passed
bipartisan legislation to improve education, health care and housing for veterans.
Mike Levin champions our environment. On the Natural Resources Committee, he fights to
protect our coast, solve the nuclear waste disposal crisis at San Onofre, and is a national
leader on action to address global climate change. Mike Levin advocates for affordable health
care, working to reduce the costs of hospitalization and prescription drugs, and to protect
people with pre-existing conditions.
Mike Levin is working to reverse the unfair provisions of the 2017 Tax Bill, which slashed taxes
for billionaires and multi-national corporations while raising taxes for California homeowners
and middle-class families. Mike Levin is a trusted champion for protecting a woman’s right to
reproductive choice.
Mike Levin fights to end the culture of corruption in Washington DC by getting unaccountable
“dark money” out of politics. Mike Levin listens. He has held a public Town Hall Meeting every
month, and over 200 local house parties.
Mike Levin is endorsed for re-election by local San Diego County police officers, firefighters
and teachers.

BRIAN MARYOTTMayor/Financial Planner
Like most Americans, I’m fed up with the lack of results from Washington. I remember a time
when members of both parties came together and found solutions for America. Sadly, that kind
of collaboration doesn’t even exist in Congress anymore. I’m going to change that.
As your congressman, I’ll bring back the leadership our communities deserve and aren’t
getting. I’ll deliver real results for Veterans, families, small businesses, and seniors.
In business, I worked my way up from washing dishes to managing hundreds of employees
and billions in client assets. As Mayor, I’ve worked with Democrats and Republicans,
businesses, community groups and law enforcement to make our city a wonderful, safe place
to live and raise a family. I’ll take the same bipartisan approach to Congress.
As a father, I’m concerned about our children’s future: rising debt, the environment, and quality
healthcare. I’m proud to be endorsed by the Deputy Sheriff’s Association of San Diego County
and over 90 elected officials and community leaders.
My Priorities: 1. Tax Reform: end taxes on Social Security benefits; make tax cuts permanent
for working families. 2. Secure Borders: stop the inflow of drugs and the heartbreak of human
trafficking. 3. Protect Our Beaches and Environment: with sensible, science-based
approaches. 4. Improve Healthcare: Expand Health Savings Accounts; give Veterans and
families more control over their healthcare choices, doctors and dollars; protect individuals with
preexisting conditions; initiate reforms to improve Medicare and Veterans care.
I would be honored to have your vote.

TIM NADERDeputy Attorney General
Tim Nader believes government’s responsibility is to protect the rights of law-abiding citizens to
safe homes, streets and schools. As a former prosecutor and experienced community leader,
Nader has a long record of being tough on crime, supporting the rights of crime victims, caring
for the environment, and upholding the Constitution.
Nader is tough but fair. As Mayor of Chula Vista, Nader oversaw the expansion of the Police
Department and crackdown on crime. Nader supported programs to give troubled young
people the options and guidance they needed to turn their lives around. The combination of
tough law enforcement and community programs led to a significant drop in crime.
Nader believes in tough sentences for criminals, but understands that’s not enough. As a
college trustee he has supported prison education programs that reduce recidivism, making all
of us safer. These programs do not reduce criminals’ sentences, but give them better options
when they have served their time,
Nader, a former prosecutor, has been a civil attorney for the past 11 years of his 37-year
career, handling some of the State’s most complex litigation. Nader’s combination of criminal
and civil law experience make him uniquely qualified.

(This Measure will appear on the ballot in the following form.)
MEASURE A
AMENDMENT TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY GENERAL PLAN
Shall this Initiative be adopted for the purpose of amending the San Diego County General Plan to
require voter approval for General Plan amendments that increase residential density for property designated by the General Plan as Semi-Rural or Rural?
This measure requires approval of a simple majority (50% plus 1) of those voting on the measure. SAFEGUARD OUR SAN DIEGO COUNTRYSIDE INITIATIVE
COUNTY COUNSEL IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS
This measure asks voters to amend the County of San Diego General Plan (“General Plan”) by requiring voter approval for amendments to the General Plan that increase residential
density in semi-rural and rural areas.
This measure would amend the General Plan to:
(a) Until January 1, 2039, require voter approval for any General Plan amendment,
that is approved by the County of San Diego, which increases the residential
density for any property that is designated Semi-Rural 0.5, Semi-Rural 1, Semi-
Rural 2, Semi-Rural 4, Semi-Rural 10, Rural Lands 20, Rural Lands 40, or Rural
Lands 80 as of the effective date of the Initiative;
(b) Exempt a project from the voter approval requirement if: (i) the amendment
increases the maximum number of allowed dwelling units by five or fewer
dwelling units; (ii) the property is entirely within the boundary of a village or rural
village as established in a Community Plan or Subregional Plan as of the
effective date of the Initiative; or (iii) the amendment is necessary to comply with
state or federal law governing the provision of housing, provided the Board of Supervisors makes findings that: (A) state or federal law requires the County to
accommodate the housing; (B) the amendment permits no greater density than
necessary to accommodate the required housing; (C) an alternative site that is
not subject to the voter approval requirement is not available to satisfy the state
or federal housing law;
(c) Until January 1, 2039, prohibit the designation of new Specific Plan Areas; and
(d) Permanently prohibit density transfers from higher density parcels to lower
density parcels.
The text of this measure comes from the Safeguard our San Diego Countryside Initiative
petition, which was signed by at least 10% of voters and therefore required the Board of Supervisors
to either adopt the General Plan amendments proposed by the Initiative or place them before
countywide voters. The Board of Supervisors placed the changes on the ballot as this measure.
This measure will become effective only if approved by a majority of voters voting on the
measure.
N SD 020-028
PR-CWO1-A-2
COUNTY COUNSEL IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
A “yes” vote on this measure means that until 2039, General Plan amendments
increasing residential density in semi-rural and rural areas require voter approval in addition to
applicable County approval processes, and designation of new Specific Plan Areas would be
prohibited. It would also permanently prohibit density transfers from higher density parcels to lower
density parcels, including within a project site. Text adopted by this measure may only be amended
or repealed by voter approval.
A “no” vote on this measure means that if the Board of Supervisors approves a General Plan amendment, it would not also require voter approval. It also means that the General Plan may
contain new land use designations for Specific Plan Areas, and that density transfers continue to
be allowed.
The above statement is an impartial analysis of Measure A. A copy of the measure is
also available of reviewing at the Registrar of Voters website at www.sdvote.com/en/measure-
a.pdf. If you desire a copy of the measure, please call the Registrar of Voter's office at 858-505-
7260 and a copy will be mailed at no cost to you.
Fiscal Impact by County Auditor and Controller Safeguard Our San Diego Countryside Initiative
The passage of this measure would amend the County of San Diego’s (County) General Plan to
require countywide voter approval for General Plan Amendments (GPAs), which include
Community Plan Updates, that increase density in Semi-Rural and Rural areas. GPAs can be
privately or publicly initiated.
If this measure is adopted, it will increase costs to the County. If adopted, this measure will require
the County to pay the cost of placing GPAs on the ballot. The cost to the County is dependent on numerous variable factors. These factors include elements surrounding the election process such
as number of registered voters, number of pages in the sample ballot and voter information
pamphlet, number of ballot cards in the election, type of election (gubernatorial versus presidential;
primary versus general or special election), election model (e.g. polling place or mail ballot) and
number and nature of proposed GPAs.
According to the Registrar of Voters, the average cost of placing a measure on the ballot subject to
countywide voter approval can range between $950,000 to $1.3 million for primary or general
elections, and up to $10.0 million if a special election is required.
The County Department of Planning & Development Services (PDS) estimates there could be 12
to 24 GPAs over the next five years. Of these, 5 to 10 GPAs could potentially require voter
approval, one within the first year following passage of the measure.
Passage of this measure could result in costs to the County of $950,000 to $1.3 million in the first
year. Costs in the first five years of the measure could range from $5 million to $22 million, with
on-going costs thereafter, but these cannot be quantified with any reasonable degree of certainty.
Actual costs may be significantly different depending on numerous variable factors, as provided.
The cost of privately-requested GPAs may be recovered if the Board of Supervisors adopts an
ordinance to charge the applicant a fee.
Other costs that cannot be quantified are the impacts to County costs and revenues associated
with any delays encountered while waiting for an upcoming election or any changes in County
services provided and/or property taxes as a result of future GPAs that may be placed on the ballot.

PR-CWO1-A-3
ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE A
Measure A (Yes on SOS) gives voters a voice over where housing is built in unincorporated San
Diego County. The County's General Plan identifies smart and safe places to build housing and
was approved with broad community support. Measure A calls for voter approval of large housing
developments in fire-prone areas that require changes to the plan.
Unfortunately, the Board of Supervisors persists in approving developer-driven changes to
the plan that put high-cost housing subdivisions in the wrong places. These sprawl
developments maximize developer profits at the public’s expense. They create more traffic
and pollution, fire risk, and homes relatively few can afford.
Measure A encourages housing development where we need it most — near existing jobs,
schools, and infrastructure. This type of housing is more affordable by design and saves
taxpayer dollars by eliminating the need to build and maintain new roads, water and sewer, and
other services.
60,000 new homes can be built today in the unincorporated county without any public votes;
Measure A does not change that. Measure A protects farmland and natural areas by encouraging
builders to construct those homes instead of expensive sprawl developments.
Measure A:
• Promotes construction of homes affordable to people with a variety of income levels. • Discourages new subdivisions in fire risk areas, protecting life and property. • Limits traffic congestion by curbing sprawl development. • Reduces the need for new roads and infrastructure in remote areas, saving taxpayer
dollars. • Encourages construction of the 60,000 homes already allowed in the General Plan. • Protects San Diego’s thriving agricultural industry, which provides local food. • Fights climate change by encouraging housing construction near jobs, schools, and
transportation. • PROVIDES VOTER CONTROL – NOT POLITICIAN AND DEVELOPER CONTROL.
Measure A promotes the kind of housing San Diego really needs.
Trust the people – not politicians funded by the building industry.
VOTE YES on MEASURE A.

REBUTTAL TO ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE A Measure A is a deceptive scheme. Extremely wealthy Wall Street investors are behind Measure A. These out-of-town investors are urging you to vote “yes” to protect and grow their investments and make more money. They wrote Measure A with one goal: to block affordable homes near their luxury $10,000-a-week Golden Door Spa. Campaign finance records show the Golden Door has contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to Measure A.
Measure A exempts commercial and industrial developments, including expanding the Golden Door, but – unbelievably – requires 1.6 million voters to vote whenever someone wants to add as few as 6 affordable homes to the General Plan.
Over its 20-year lifespan, Measure A would cost taxpayers up to $104 million in election costs. That’s money that could be used to fund REAL affordable housing or REAL traffic solutions, but
instead the wealthy investors behind Measure A want your tax dollars to protect their spa.
The General Plan is zoned for about 60,000 future homes, but many of those homes will never be built because they would be miles from jobs, transit and freeways in villages like Julian and Borrego Springs. The plan also calls for thousands of luxury homes on sprawling, multi-acre lots. There is no affordable housing in the General Plan and Measure A would ensure there won’t be for 20 years.
Measure A is flawed, unfair and deceptive. It is not what it seems. Its loopholes and exemptions mean it will NOT protect our backcountry and it will NOT give voters the control it promises.

ARGUMENT AGAINST MEASURE A Vote NO on Measure A – it’s Flawed, Unfair and Deceptive Not What it Seems
Measure A’s loopholes and exemptions mean it will NOT protect our backcountry and it will NOT give us the control it promises.
Written by attorneys to deceive voters, the fine print reveals casinos, resorts, hotels, country clubs and factories are exempt from Measure A’s voter requirement, as are luxury homes on sprawling, multi-acre lots.
Shockingly, Measure A requires the entire county to vote whenever someone needs to amend the County’s General Plan to add as few as SIX homes. The measure uses deceptive language to gloss over this absurd 6-unit threshold: “The voter approval requirement shall not apply: Where the General Plan amendment increases the maximum number of allowed dwelling units by five or fewer.” Read the measure at noonsos.org. Follow the Money
The wealthy, out-of-state backers of Measure A wrote it to protect the Golden Door Spa, which campaign finance records show has contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to Measure A. This luxury resort near Escondido attracts the rich and famous, who pay $10,000 a week. The owners are among the richest people in the world.
These extremely wealthy Wall Street investors want to keep affordable homes far away from their exclusive hotel and force them into congested neighborhoods. Their measure exempts commercial and industrial developments, including expanding the Golden Door, but – unbelievably – requires 1.6 million voters to approve new affordable homes. Unfair Measure A creates a ballot box planning scheme so voters in large urban areas will make decisions for small rural communities. Measure A will force more San Diegans to live in overcrowded apartments and pay higher rent. It
will drive home prices higher, making our housing affordability crisis worse. That hits seniors, young families and workers hardest. Measure A will ultimately push more people onto the streets. Join firefighters, police, farmers, and community leaders opposing Measure A.

REBUTTAL TO ARGUMENT AGAINST MEASURE A
Opponents of Measure A have resorted to scare tactics and mudslinging because they don’t
like the facts. Don’t be confused!
Follow the Money
The No on A campaign is funded by sprawl developers and special interests that have the most to
gain if Measure A fails. Developers of projects that require General Plan changes are desperate
not to lose their power over politicians who rubber-stamp their plans.
Measure A Protects Small Property Owners and Rural Communities
Measure A doesn’t change any existing zoning. It allows small property owners to add units. It
protects plans developed by communities and stakeholders in San Diego County. These plans
encourage building entry-level homes close to jobs, transportation and services, rather than luxury
developments. Measure A promotes construction of the 60,000 homes already allowed in the
General Plan.
Measure A focuses on large housing developments – not hotels, factories, or casinos – because almost all proposed General Plan changes are for housing projects.
By Regular People for Regular People
Yes on A is a grassroots campaign run by volunteers dedicated to protecting San Diego’s
backcountry and making housing more affordable. The measure was drafted by these volunteers.
It gives ordinary people a voice.
Vote YES on Measure A: Stop Special Interests
Trust voters instead of politicians and those who fund their campaigns. Developers want to
maximize profits by building high-end developments in dangerous, fire prone locations. This
approach destroys farmland and natural areas and makes traffic worse.
If Measure A passes, YOU will have the final say.
TRUST PEOPLE, NOT POLITICIANS.

COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO
(This Measure will appear on the ballot in the following form.)
MEASURE B NEWLAND SIERRA AMENDMENTS TO THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY GENERAL PLAN Shall the San Diego County General Plan Amendment PDS2015-GPA-15-001 approved by the Board of
Supervisors for the development of the Newland Sierra Project, be approved? The existing General Plan
allows 99 homes and up to 2,000,000 square feet of commercial with open space. General Plan
Amendment PDS2015-GPA-15-001 would authorize up to 2,199 homes and 1,777,684 square feet of
commercial. The approved Newland Sierra Project includes a planned community of 2,135 homes, a
school site, 81,000 square feet of retail, 36 acres of parks and 1,209 acres of open space.
This measure requires approval of a simple majority (50% plus 1) of those voting on the measure. REFERENDUM AGAINST THE NEWLAND SIERRA GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT PDS2015-GPA-001
COUNTY COUNSEL IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS
This measure asks voters to uphold or repeal the Board of Supervisors’ amendment of
the General Plan associated with the Newland Sierra project.
On September 26, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved the Newland Sierra project, a master planned community located in northern San Diego County west of I-15, east of Oceanside and Vista, south of Bonsall, and north of Escondido and San Marcos. The Board approved a number of development entitlements required to implement the project, including General Plan
amendment PDS2015-GPA-15-001.
That General Plan amendment is the subject of this Measure. The existing General Plan land use designations on site include Rural Lands, Office Professional, General Commercial and Semi- Rural Residential: these designations allow up to 99 homes and 2,000,000 square feet of commercial and office uses. A small portion of the site is currently designated SR-10. The Newland
Sierra amendment would change the General Plan land use designations to include Semi-Rural Residential, Village Core Mixed Use, and Open Space-Conservation: these designations would allow up to 2,199 homes and 1,777,684 square feet of commercial use.
The overall Newland Sierra project – as proposed through its entire package of development approvals – is a planned community of 2,135 homes, a school site, 81,000 square
feet of retail, 36 acres of parks, and 1,209 acres of dedicated open space. Without the General Plan amendment, the Newland Sierra project cannot legally be built.
The text of this measure comes from a referendum petition titled “Referendum Against a Resolution Passed by the Board of Supervisors,” which proposes to repeal the Newland Sierra General Plan amendment. The petition was signed by at least 10% of voters and therefore required
the Board of Supervisors to either repeal the Newland Sierra General Plan amendment or place it before voters. The Board of Supervisors placed the General Plan amendment on the ballot as this measure.
The Newland Sierra General Plan amendment will only become effective if a majority of voters approve this measure.

ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE B
Yes on “B” -- A Better Choice.
The County’s current General Plan allows development of up to 2 million square feet of
commercial/office buildings (bigger than Fashion Valley) and 99 estate homes on this privately-
owned property located between Escondido, San Marcos and Vista.
The alternative -- Yes on Measure “B” -- permits a project of 2,135 homes, at least 60% of
which are guaranteed by a legally-binding covenant to be affordably priced for working
families. That’s why it is endorsed by police, firefighters, teachers and others priced-out of
San Diego’s home market.
Measure “B” permits a project with more than 1,200 acres of permanently-protected open space
(the size of Balboa Park), public parks and trails, solar on every home, electric vehicle chargers
in every garage, and a dedicated shuttle system connecting residents to existing transit centers.
Measure “B” permits a project that addresses traffic congestion, providing $56 million for
road/freeway improvements, reducing the need for workers to commute from Riverside County
homes to San Diego County jobs, generating up to 35% fewer rush hour trips than development
currently allowed on the property. That’s why the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce,
San Diego North Economic Development Council and mayors of all five North County cities
support it.
Measure “B” permits a project that meets the highest fire safety standards, creating a 250-foot-
wide buffer that serves as a fire break, improved evacuation routes, enhanced brush management,
and contributing $4.4 million for fire prevention and protection, more than double what is required.
That’s why its Fire Protection Plan was approved by the Deer Springs Fire Protection District and
endorsed by CAL FIRE Firefighters and fire safety experts.
Measure “B” is opposed by owners of the Golden Door Spa, an exclusive $10,000-a-week
resort. They don’t want any development near their resort. That’s why they spent more than
$2 million to force a countywide vote, even though this project was unanimously approved by the
Board of Supervisors.

REBUTTAL TO ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE B
Developers + Politicians = Expensive Deal for Us
Do you trust a developer that stands to make millions off Newland Sierra to decide what’s right for our community? Do you trust politicians who approved Newland Sierra without a vote of the public? Do you trust Newland executives, who’ve given thousands of dollars to local politicians?
We can’t trust developers and politicians to do what’s right. That’s why we’re voting NO on B. Politicians and developers could have guaranteed affordable housing in Newland Sierra’s project approvals but didn’t. County staff has even acknowledged that project approvals don’t require any affordable housing units (Planning Commission Hearing Report, 6/28/2018, p.24), but now Newland wants you to believe the opposite. Politicians changed the rules so that Newland Sierra can build a sprawling, upmarket development, ignoring the community-driven process that determined what’s right for the area. Developers aren’t required to pay a dime to widen the freeway, even though Newland Sierra would make traffic MUCH worse, adding tens of thousands of daily car trips onto our freeway and roads. Developers tried to stop you from voting on Newland Sierra. Newland sued to remove Measure B from the ballot and failed. “Newland Sierra is a bad deal for middle-class San Diegans. Taxpayers, not the developer, will have to pick up the tab for the cost of freeway capacity improvements. Why should working families pay the costs associated with a development that fails to require any affordable housing in the project approvals?” Scott Barnett, San Diego Taxpayers Advocate Say no to politicians and developers. Vote NO on B.

ARGUMENT AGAINST MEASURE B
VOTE NO ON NEWLAND SIERRA NO AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR MIDDLE-CLASS SAN DIEGANS IS REQUIRED BY PROJECT APPROVALS!
With prices too expensive for many San Diegans, Newland Sierra will do nothing to solve our housing problem or reduce costs and will put millions of dollars in the developers’ pockets. We need more housing in our area, but Newland Sierra is the wrong project. Newland Sierra isn’t affordable.
• Not even a single unit of affordable housing is required by the project approvals. • Developers admit that many houses could cost nearly a million dollars.
• It’s a profit-driven development that could require the destruction of affordably-priced homes for seniors that already exist in the area. We can’t trust Newland developers.
• Developers could have committed to building affordable homes in the project’s approvals, but instead chose not to make this guarantee.
• There are no price guarantees for any homes in Newland Sierra in the project approvals. The developers can increase the cost of homes at any time without a public vote.
• Why should we trust Newland executives, who’ve given thousands of dollars in campaign contributions to local politicians? Developers win while we lose. They make millions and all we get is traffic! • Newland isn’t required to pay a dime to widen the freeway, and they’ll pay far less than it would cost for local schools to deal with new growth.
• Newland Sierra would make traffic MUCH worse, adding tens of thousands of daily car trips onto our freeway and roads. American Federation of Teachers says NO to Newland Sierra because the project approvals don’t require affordable housing for teachers or other middle-class San Diegans. “This project is located in a high fire danger zone and NO affordable housing for firefighters is
required by the project approvals—two good reasons to vote NO.” John Thomson, Retired Deputy Fire Chief VOTE NO ON MEASURE B www.NoOnNewlandSierra.com

REBUTTAL TO ARGUMENT AGAINST MEASURE B
This private property is already designated for intense commercial and office
development.
That’s why Measure B is a Better Choice.
Opponents claim “B” won’t really provide affordable housing. But the truth is a legally-binding
covenant requires at least 60% of the homes to be affordable for working families.
• That’s why affordable housing advocates hail this project as precedent-setting.
Opponents claim the developer isn’t required to “pay a dime” to reduce freeway congestion. But
the truth is the developer is required to pay more than $56 million for road and I-15 interchange
improvements and $8.8 million to the County to reduce existing congestion.
• That’s why the mayors of all three cities surrounding the project support YES on “B.”
Opponents claim the project is vulnerable to wildfires. But fire safety experts say Measure B will
increase fire safety in the area.
• That’s why CAL FIRE Firefighters and fire chiefs support YES on “B.”
Opponents claim the developer will “pay far less than it would cost for local schools.” But the truth
is the project is required to pay all school fees required by California law to accommodate new
students and sets aside a school site in the project.
• That’s why local school officials and teachers support YES on “B.”
The real question is, why are owners of the exclusive Golden Door spa spending millions to defeat
this project? The truth is, they don’t care about providing affordable homes for working families.
They just don’t want new neighbors near their resort.

SSAVE OUR CITRUS!
A new plant disease called Huanglongbing that kills citrus trees has
been found in Los Angeles, Orange, and Riverside counties in
backyard citrus. While this disease has not yet been found in San
Diego County, early detection is key to protect our citrus trees.
WHAT IS HUANGLONGBING?
Huanglongbing, also called citrus
greening, is a fatal citrus disease
vectored by a pest called the Asian
Citrus Psyllid. The fruits of an
infected tree remain small and green
with bitter juice and drop early. The leaves have
asymmetrical discoloration and the tree loses
leaves. An infected tree eventually becomes
unproductive and dies.
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
-Inspect your citrus trees monthly for disease symptoms and
Asian Citrus Psyllid.
-Do not move citrus plants and fruit with stems and leaves out of
quarantine areas or across state or international borders.
-Plant new trees that come from reputable, licensed nurseries.
-Cooperate with agricultural officials.
