JUST ADD THE NAME YOU WANT TO SEND IT TO AND ADD YOUR NAME AT THE BOTTOM. Dear XXX, As a supporter of the Whittier Hills Oil Watch (WHOW) and someone committed to conserving wildlife and our open space lands, I strongly urge you to continue to OPPOSE efforts to allow oil drilling in the Whittier Hills Habitat Preserve. WHOW fought for more than three years to stop the City of Whittier from drilling on land that was purchased with taxpayer money to be preserved in perpetuity as open space. We were thrilled that Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James C. Chalfant ruled in favor of MRCA - finding that the use of a portion of those lands for oil drilling by the City of Whittier violated the public trust. The Puente Hills Habitat Preservation Authority was purchased, in part, with $9.3 million from Prop. A monies. Judge Chalfant’s ruled that the City of Whittier acted against the wishes of Los Angeles County voters who paid for the land to be preserved as open space. This ruling was a huge victory for Los Angeles County voters who passed Prop. A. Unfortunately, despite this ruling there is some concern that MRCA might choose to settle with the oil companies and allow oil drilling on land that was purchased by taxpayers to be preserved as open space. Because I support open space land, and because I believe in preserving open space land in perpetuity with the primary purpose to protect the biological diversity in the Puente Hills, I urge you to continue to oppose the oil drilling on the Puente Hills Habitat Preservation Authority. Do not settle for money! Thank you for considering my comments. I look forward to your reply. Sincerely, First and Last Name City, State
