Many California State Parks (including Topanga serving almost half a million people a year) are now slated to be closed due to a lack of funding for maintenance and rangers. Yet the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy wants to spend millions on new camping facilities and build a parking lot on an existing meadow at the end of Winding Way! Yes, I know the money is in a different coffee can. Joe Edmiston has very deep pockets. Joe, be a mensch.
Let’s stop the lunacy and your plan for overnight camping in Malibu. Let’s come together to truly preserve and protect California parklands in a way that makes sense.
