So this is what I am hearing through our "converstaion":
The health of 2,000 doesn't matter when you put things in perspective.
If people from Val Verde move because of the landfill, there will be an exodus of poor criminals to Castaic
Therefore, people in Val Verde are poor and are criminals
Val Verdeans (all 2,000 of us) should move instead of fighting the landfill
Somehow, people from Val Verde will consider moving to Castaic
We live in a place that is special to all of us. We do not have a cookie cutter community and that is why we love it. You cannot tell 2,000 residents to move because the County says that there is no option. We have done more than our fair share and there ARE other options.
Did you read the article? This will be probably the largest landfill in the United States and it will be here there for hundreds of years. Newhall Ranch will be built there, right next to the landfill. That means more than 2,000 people will be affected. Not only that, there are other neighborhoods like Live Oak and Hasley Hills who are already close to the landfill and the landfill is moving in their direction.
I don't want any resident to get ill or die because of the landfill, that is what is wanted at the end of this whole thing.
I know the CCL donates" to many politicians....don't even get me started on that!
I am sorry your neighbors see you as the enemy for having an opinion/stand on this subject.
