I am a member of the newly formed Crystal Cove Community Trust, made up of non-residents who wish to see the evictions of the people of the Cove overturned. Our organization has filed legal action against the State Parks Dept. for not following the requirements of CEQA in regards to the eviction notices.
Topanga Canyon is like Crystal Cove (by Laguna Beach) all over again. Interested parties who wish to learn more about the practices of the Park Dept. disregarding cultural resources are welcome to contact me Bruce Hostetter (bruho@att.net). We should work together to “educate” the state about the contributions that “traditional cultures,” which Topanga Canyon may very well be, provide to society and the users of public parks.
