The opponent leadership of Measure F is a self-appointed captain of the Titanic in a desperate, selfish race to win personal recognition. Their negative, lying race campaign is disgraceful and has deceived a number of good people.
They have total disregard for the future of any crew or passengers. The crew in this story is present and past leaders of Brentwood; the passengers are the citizens of Brentwood. Both groups are being ignored or openly lied to while being carried full speed ahead with illusions that hold only disastrous consequences. This is not “The Love Boat.”
A negative vote is just one more iceberg in an ocean of control. Why would you let this group, almost devoid of leaders or captains of anything, steer your passengers into disastrous waters, against the recommendation of the crew of Brentwood? This is a direction that will leave the passengers of Brentwood drowning in an ocean of Antioch takeover.
If this Titanic sinks, there will not be any life boats to save you or rescue your ship to change the history. A second rejection of this area will bring the coldest invasion in Brentwood’s history. Our boundaries, control and any choice this area will be frozen from us.
You can change the course of this ship by voting Yes on Measure F.

Your overblown analogy is bizarre. The histrionic tactics of the Measure F group is beyond belief.
I don't read anything new in your letter. Same old bogus threats: Antioch is bankrupt so the city will spend money to get land that will generate revenue in 5-6 years, if that soon. It doesn't even sound logical. Your threat makes no sense.
The lack of any rational reason for 1,300 houses and 35 acres of retail shoved onto the western hills proves that Measure F is bad for Brentwood.
Vote NO on Measure F on June 8th.
