Online Survey: Should Chain Stores Be Allowed on High Street?

In case you missed last week's in-person discussion at the Cactus Patch, we have published an online survey to collect more feedback from the Moorpark resident and business communities on this topic. Please take a few minutes to tell us what you think!

While there isn't a current proposal from a large chain store to open along High Street, the City is expecting new interest as new investment and development (most notably the High Street Depot project) comes to our historic downtown. Rather than waiting for potential businesses and developers to propose something that the Moorpark community may or may not want, we are proactively trying to identify what Moorpark wants and then working to make that vision a reality.

We don't know yet if that vision include or does not include chain stores. That's why we need your input now!
