Friends of Arana Gulch


June 25, 2009 - Our lawyer presented oral arguments today
in the 6th Appellate Court of California.
A decision will be forthcoming within 90 days.

California Native Plant Society and Friends of Arana Gulch offer our gratitude to Parkin and Wittwer
for their performance in court today on behalf of Arana Gulch.

OUR PURPOSE:

Friends of Arana Gulch is an unincorporated association of concerned citizens working for the preservation of Arana Gulch as open space, and for the restoration of the rare and native flora and fauna of this coastal prairie habitat.

OUR SHORT-TERM GOAL:

To stop construction of the proposed paved Broadway-Brommer bike route, which would cut through the greenbelt and cause irreparable ecological and aesthetic damage.

OUR LONG-TERM GOAL:

To advocate for an "Arana Gulch Greenbelt Master Plan," that would include a management and maintenence plan to protect, preserve, and restore the sensitive coastal prairie habitat, and that does not include a specific transportation project.

We seek support, both legal and binding, to protect the Arana Gulch greenbelt from future development.
