Press Release on Acquisition Funding

with No Comments

Hills For Everyone is thrilled to announce that two ridgeline parcels immediately adjacent to Chino Hills State Park have been funded by the Wildlife Conservation Board for conservation acquisition from willing sellers. Both properties have been coveted for their prominent ridgeline positions since the late 1970s. Escrow is expected to close in the next couple of weeks on both properties bringing them into conservation status. View the Press Release and Acquisition Map.

with No Comments

Earlier today Hills For Everyone participated in a public hearing by commenting on a proposed land exchanged in San Diego that would have allowed a previously protected preserve to be developed with high end houses in exchange for other less valuable habitat nearby. This would have set a terrible precedent for the Wildlife Conservation Board by undoing the conservation transaction. Thankfully, the Board members understood the implications and the final vote opposed the land exchange (5-1), with one recusal.
