Stop Annexing STV!
Help save our community from corporations and politicians in other cities!!
We have a lot of work to do and we HAVE to all work together to have any chance of stopping QC's next land grab. Queen Creek and a few select residents have decided that they want Encanterra in Queen Creek and they are working to make that a reality.
They have sent out horribly misleading mailings both via email and the mail and a map has just been filed to begin the pre-annexation process. Take a look at the map - I think you'll see that AGAIN the land grab is something QC is becoming a pro at. Encanterra is only a tiny bit of what QC wants. This annexation effort, like Ironwood Crossings, is NOT about the residents but about taking the commercial that QC wants, cutting STV in half and gaining access to the North/South Corridor.
A little about me, I have never been political or anything in my entire life. I usually just go with the status quo. My family and I moved out to San Tan Valley about 4 years ago. We love it here and love our community. We are always the "fun" house at Halloween and Christmas, my daughter loves playing in our neighborhood full of kids. I had absolutely no problem with Queen Creek when we moved here. We have enjoyed having Queen Creek close by and have many friends who live in Queen Creek.
That was until I heard about Encanterra and what was going on in that community. I heard that neighboring towns and non-resident builders were interfering with our effort to determine our own future, affecting my family, and I started asking questions.
The very first time I asked a question that seemed negative about Queen Creek, I was immediately contacted by a member of the town council who debated with me about why I was wrong and it just progressed negatively from there. The deeper I looked, the uglier it got in regards to annexation. I don't want to pay more in taxes for food, clothing and everything else I buy, because QC feels that all of our current and future commercial should be within their boundaries, building their town, while leaving STV with whatever they don't want. I don't live in QC for a reason and I don't want to pay QC taxes!
I want a say in my community. I want my community to stop being picked apart. I want to be able to vote and decide for myself what our community looks like in the future. But if Queen Creek cuts us in half we will all lose our voice.
How is it possible that a "grass roots" effort by a few Encanterra property owners, is able to draw up a huge map with less than 1/3 of it actually being the community of Encanterra! We NEED to all come together as a community to fight back against the take over of our land by a neighboring town. We need to fight back against the politicians and corporations trying to make decisions for us. We deserve a voice, we all deserve a choice. Help us send a message to the politicians and corporations that we will fight for our community. Join us as we fight for that right!
QC is taking what they want and leaving the rest of STV in a really bad spot.
All funds from this campaign will be used to fight against the QC land grab machine by way of informing local property owners and residents (mailers, hand outs, websites, signs, events, etc).
