Don’t Blame City for Lang Ranch
Re Lyn Meyer’s letter Jan. 12.
Lang Ranch was originally slated for development in the 1970s. In the early 1980s, Thousand Oaks City Council action to restrict the development, following the passage of Measure A , resulted in a major lawsuit. The city lost, and a judge made the final determination about Lang Ranch’s size and density years ago. The “pro-business” City Council had nothing to do with any of it.
I agree that the result is a tragedy, but please, let’s look at facts before placing blame where it doesn’t belong.
