__When asked by Off-Leash Public Affairs Co-Producer David Pritchett about whether if elected Perotte would want to change the current agricultural zoning of the 240-acre Bishop Ranch, which is perpetually proposed by residential land developers, she responds with a definite no, stating: "I see no need to make any changes in the General Plan for the foreseeable future. That's a direct quote!"
For this 8-minute video edited by David Pritchett --with plenty of noise from nearby busy Hollister Avenue-- cameras were run by David Pritchett and George Relles, with some still photos included by Paul Wellman from the Santa Barbara Independent website. During election season, this video also was played numerous times on the GreenScreen show of short videos by Santa Barbara Channels, community-access cable TV-17.
