Save River Park 6

The City of Lompoc, CA is already in the process of "improving" River Park...by tearing out all of the indigenous plants that support the local eco system of birds of prey and other protected creatures, by cutting down all of the shade-providing trees, and making the lush little lake full of ducks into a gravel trailer park. They've already paved 9 new RV spaces and covered them in gravel and concrete, and they've added a metal fence behind the spaces that has cleared a good 20 feet of native brush and trees beyond the fence itself into the riverbed. My goal is to document the plants and animals that thrive here in this coastal sweet spot. If the City achieves its goals, these will no longer be around and this group will be a valuable record. If the City sees the community caring about the preservation of this one little space of undisturbed nature, maybe they'll protect it along with us and shift their focus to making Lompoc a safer place!
