Call to Action -Message from the Save the Golf Course Sub-Committee

If approved, the Verdugo Hills Storm Water Project could provide funds to buy the Verdugo Hills Golf Course and its surrounding property. It would maintain the golf course as a public recreational facility, and implement methods to capture, cleanse and store storm water, provide flood protection, increase water conservation, enhance habitat protection, and preserve open space. 

How can I help?

Email Paul Krekorian and Richard Alarcon.  Emails can be brief.  You just need to let them know you want the VHGC preserved and the storm water project to move ahead.

Samples?

·         We want to save the golf course and Prop O offers a great way to do it.  Please support the Verdugo Hills Storm Water Project!   -John & Betty LastName, 7744 Street, Sunland, CA 91040

·         Verdugo Hills Golf Course is perfect for Prop O funding.  The storm water plan would clean storm water and protect our ocean.  And we need more recreation in Tujunga! They even have Frisbie golf at the VHGC.  - Angela LastName, 10345 Street, Tujunga, 91042

·         The Verdugo Hills Storm Water Project makes good sense, for the environment and for local recreation.  It’s important to me and to my family.  Thank you!

·         The storm water plan sounds great.  Prop O could help us save the Verdugo Hills Golf Course and even expand its recreation.  Please help us get that funding.

What happens if we don’t save the Verdugo Hills Golf Course?

A developer plans to build 229 houses on the property.  That means hundreds of additional cars & trucks using Tujunga Canyon Blvd., La Tuna Canyon Road, Honolulu Avenue, and the 210 Freeway.  Plus the loss of recreation, open space, wildlife, and watershed protection.
