Talking Point: "The Tierra Rejada Valley is distinguished from the
other greenbelts in the County both in terms of it being the home to a major
site-seeing attraction, the Reagan Library, and also because it borders thriving
urban cities with relatively little agricultural lands within their city limits.
The desire to preserve agricultural lands, used for both ranching and crops, is
a unifying theme in our County. The greenbelt land between the cities of
Moorpark, Simi Valley, and Thousand Oaks also acts as a buffer from urban
sprawl. On a regional level, the Tierra Rejada Valley offers an area of
critical inter-mountain linkage between the Santa Monica Mountains and the Simi
Hills, and on a local level, its culverts under the 23 Freeway are used more
than any other freeway wildlife crossing in the area." -

- how will landfill expansion affect wildlife in our area?

Keeping it real (always),
