It's just so sad and terrible that the phrase 'protected area' means so little nowadays. I know public comment can make a difference, thanks for sharing that link above.

The County's de-silting plan sounds absolutely insane, so here's hoping a more reasonable project can be agreed to. Let us know what else we can do, especially for those of us too far away to attend meetings!

Unbelievable. <br /><br /><br /><br /> The meeting was intolerable last night. We were treated like kindergartners. I mentioned in a verbal comment with the "mic" about death in the arroyo, the past and future... the consultant/facilitator host made a joke after I spoke rephrasing my comment as "How do we deal with poltergeist in Hahamongna?"

I go for the views, the beauty and the wildlife, and the latter two won't return if the basin is kept plant-free forever after. Public apathy is a big problem, yet it's important to attend the meetings, as heads are counted and noted. Have you been to any of them? I'm going to the one in La Canada tomorrow afternoon, even though I know it'll depress me.
