Save Trestles Campaign Update

Posted on July 02, 2008 @ 8:38 AM

Although a huge turn-out for the 241 toll road hearing in April won Save Trestles Supporters a substantial victory, road builders are now appealing the verdict. The appeal will take place on July 24th and/or 25th and Save Trestles campaigners are hoping for another huge show of support.

The Department of Commerce announced today the hearing for the TCA’s appeal of the Coastal Commission decision will be held July 24th and/or 25th. The hearing will more than likely be at the Bren Event Center of the University of California, Irvine.

We’ll get more details as they come in, including the exact date, meeting format, agenda, etc… so stay tuned!

Surfrider will be renting buses again (more than likely leaving from LA and San Diego). So if you are interested in riding the bus, please with the subject line: ‘buses to hearing’.

Remember, in February 2008 the California Coastal Commission voted to deny the toll road through San Onofre State Beach. Following a 14 hour hearing, attended by thousands, the Commission listened to reason and law by rejecting the toll road application.

The people in D.C. need to hear from people who care about San Onofre and Trestles! Your voice is needed!
