Result:
Thank you for supporting the effort to save the oak woodland in Arcadia. Unfortunately the felling of oaks and sycamores began in the early morning of Wed. Jan 12, 2011 as scheduled by LADPW. We won't be blindsided again. Please send your ideas to the publisher of this petition.

Dear Supervisor Antonovich,

We the undersigned urge you to work with the Dept. of Public Works to find an alternative disposal site for the sediment to be removed from the reservoir behind the Santa Anita Dam, and to support long-term protection of the oak woodlands. Please join other groups [listed below] in achieving permanent protection of the oaks.

Sierra Club
California Oaks
Pasadena Garden Club
Pasadena Audubon Society
Nature Friends Los Angeles
Sierra Madre Mountain Conservancy
Altadena Crest Trail Restoration Working Group (ACTRWG)
San Gabriel Mountains Chapter of the California Native Plant Society


Thank you for your consideration of this request.
