County Should Do Wilderness Job Right, Quit Calling People Eco-Freaks

Share via

In reference to the article “Suit Seeks to Halt Wilderness Area Plan,” I am angered and dismayed by the statements of Michael Ruane, director of the county Environmental Management Agency, and county administrator Ernie Schneider, who stated that an Orange County development has never been overturned by a lawsuit and that suits only waste time and money.

What a sad commentary on the actions of our elected and appointed public officials.

Is Orange County in such need of more dwellings, people and autos with their attendant pollutions that we heedlessly should build over the last of the natural and beautiful wild areas in southern Orange County?

Is the goal of our planning commissioners and supervisors to see a county fully paved and housed from north to south and ocean to mountains? Apparently. What a shame!

I suggest that the county supervisors save this wildlife area for future generations by stopping this development.
