Literature from Citizens For Responsible Planning

*Note to Davis residents*
Mass mailings received from the Covell Village Company represent commercial advertisements and should not be regarded as accurate representations of the proposed subdivision. Marketing claims made by Covell Village Co. are legally held to the same standard as the advertising wizards that claim, "It makes you look years younger", "Fair and Balanced" and "A diamond is forever".
