I’m pleased to have been part of the making of this film and that Utne Reader has expressed interest in it. I’m hoping people in all the neighborhoods of Petaluma have a chance to see the film so they can better understand what the chain stores really mean for our community.
We didn’t know, for instance, that people in Europe have only about 1/10th the retail stores we have. Maybe we have enough already - or too much to support! We really need Community Impact Reports (CIRs) to understand the impacts of any big new development in Petaluma.
