S.O.A.R. is a local nonprofit organization dedicated to making Ventura County a better place to live by limiting urban sprawl, protecting open space and agricultural lands, and promoting livable and sustainable communities in Ventura County.

Once cities sprawl together — each city loses the unique character vital to a real sense of community.

• SOAR guards against runaway, ill-planned growth before the problems associated with urban sprawl get out of hand.
• SOAR ensures well-planned cities that work — focusing development
within existing urban areas.
• SOAR protects farming and our greenbelts

The first SOAR Initiative was approved by the voters in the City of Ventura in 1995. Since 1995, SOAR initiatives have passed in all major cities in Ventura County, and also on a countywide basis throughout Ventura County. No other county in the United States has more effective protections against urban sprawl. None!
