Let’s not give up and continue the fight against Ahmanson Ranch

Let’s not give up and continue the fight against Ahmanson Ranch

I am pleased to see more organizations and more individuals getting involved in the fight against Washington Mutual’s plans to develop Ahmanson Ranch.

However, it is going to take all the cities affected by this development to speak out. It is going to take all the residents to contact their city and state officials to let them know their feelings on this project. It is going to take the city, county and state officials to come out and voice their objections to this project.

Residents of the areas affected will have to live with the traffic, pollution, and the destroying of our beautiful hills. The spineflower and red-legged frog, long extinct in this area, will disappear again forever, as will Washington Mutual once this project is completed. Washington Mutual will go back to its corporate headquarters in Washington state. We will have to live with the mess they have created.

So all of you who live in L.A. City, L.A. County, and Ventura County start making those phone calls and sending your letters to the officials you elected.

What we do now will affect future generations.
