Protect Solvang's Unique Character – Say NO to Mega Apartment Complex!

The City of Solvang is on the verge of approving a colossal 105,000 square foot apartment complex that threatens to alter the town's character. The proposed development, with 109 units, doesn't align with existing zoning or the general plan, raising serious concerns among residents. As tall as the Hollywood sign and twice as long, this complex could cause major disruptions to this peaceful community. With a population of just under 6,000 people, this large-scale development could significantly impact Solvang's character. Residents fear increased traffic congestion, strain on local resources, and a threat to Solvang's small-town charm.  Sign this petition to halt the approval of the monster apartment complex in Solvang and protect the essence of this small Californian town.

Sign now with a click The City of Solvang is considering approving a massive 105,000 square foot apartment complex on Alamo Pintado and Old Mission Road that is not consistent with the existing zoning or general plan. As tall as the Hollywood sign and twice as long and located across from the Nielsen Shopping Center and New Frontiers, this proposed development, consisting of 109 units, threatens to disrupt our peaceful community. As residents, we have serious concerns about the potential increase in traffic congestion, strain on local resources such as water supply and waste management systems, as well as the impact on our small-town charm that attracts tourists from all over the world. According to data from the U.S Census Bureau (2019), Solvang has a population of just under 6,000 people; this large-scale development could significantly alter our town's character. Nowhere else in Solvang does a development like this exist. We urge the city officials to listen to their constituents' voices who are opposed to this project. Please sign this petition if you believe that decisions about future developments should prioritize preserving our community's unique character over unchecked growth.
