Pioneertown is of historic and cultural importance to America. Culture. Please do not allow outside forces to turn it into a cheap amusement park like place. Give it historical monument designation to protect it for generations to come.

Please do not pave our sacred and rustic Pioneertown, which is a county treasure just the way it is.

There are not enough special towns and cities in California anymore, Corporate America has overwhelmed and dominated all the individual personality and character of them, in the quest for money. Please let this place win this gunfight and be the hero. Thank you, sincerely, Luke Brown

To the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors and Planning Staff: Pioneertown's Mane Street area needs specific zoning regulations to ensure that the qualities that make it a unique place for residents and visitors are preserved and future development is compatible with the surrounding community and at a scale supported by our limited local infrastructure. Although Pioneertown's Mane Street was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2020, the County has yet to recognize this unique collection of historic buildings and small businesses as in any way different. Mane Street is not treated any differently by San Bernardino County than the rest of the Section 19 portion of Pioneertown – it has the same zoning as the rest of the area (SD-RES), no special provisions to ensure that future tourism uses are balanced with the needs of residents, nothing that recognizes Pioneertown’s historical importance, nothing to prevent the introduction of chain or franchise businesses, and nothing that would ensure that Pioneertown’s small scale and locally owned businesses are preserved. Pioneertown residents and property owners desire slow, sustainable growth for Mane Street that preserves our neighborhood character is critical to the future of Pioneertown's small businesses and residential character. This proposal is based on the results that were compiled from the two San Bernardino County Countywide Planning meetings with the Pioneertown community residents and landowners. The Countywide Plan documented the needs and desires expressed by residents and landowners to map out the best route for the future long-term success of the Pioneertown community. Unfortunately, the County has not dedicated any resources to translate these Community Action Guides into binding land use regulations, and has left it to the community to propose and advance zoning changes to make community and property owner desires effective. We support the propose Mane Street Historic Ov
