This just keeps getting better and better. Thank you for keeping us up on all these dirty little secrets that are associated with the Chiquita Canyon Landfill one way or another. The landfill will not just be the problem of the “disadvantaged” people of Val Verde when this happens. It is great, more people will get to enjoy the “good neighbor” known as Chiquita Canyon Landfill. We didn’t want to be selfish and keep it all to ourselves in Castaic.
When will this madness stop?
Do you EVER have ANYTHING positive to say? Must be exhausting living in your head with the constant barrage of negativity in there.
They have tons of land to build homes else where I already know residents are gonna complain about noise from the park
There will always be people that want it just the way they want it. Half of them wouldn’t even live where they are if the people before them succeeded in the mindset they hold now.

No more houses,we need to solve the water problem first!!
That’s right dad!
solving the water problem means all of us start drastically conserving, and realizing green lawns in a desert don’t make sense

This is why they moved the “Old Glory” oak tree – the one John Quigley sat in

for those of us in Stevenson Ranch and or Southern oaks it’s going to make our neighborhood a major thruway and that will SUCK!!!! I have no problem spending a little extra time going around for the quiet!!

It’s a good thing traffic doesn’t already suck on the 5.
Oh wait……

Dear Santa Clarita – please stop pretending that the industrial center is creating jobs for the residents of the valley. Everyone knows that all the jobs worth having are still in the city. You need to connect Pico Canyon with Topanga Canyon, not the 126. (or, maybe, also the 126)
the Valencia Industrial Center is in the city (and Pico Canyon Road isn’t)
By “city” I mean Warner Center or Century City or Downtown.
DISLIKE!
Stevenson Ranch is in LA County territory, so how are Santa Clarita Leaders able to allow this to happen? Why are the residents of Stevenson Ranch, and West Hills not able to vote on this?
Mentryville is going to get trashed!
I moved here 43 years ago and do not complain all of you who distoryed our nice canyon Pico Canyon a peaceful place to get away. Now that we need a fire rescue road, like all of you it will come your peaceful place will have other’s come. I think is great, I want the fire road, access if their is a accident, and why not continue to distory whats already been done. 30,000 people were here, we had K Mart, that’s it and now we have a beautiful city and you don’t have to like it!
I do not want to see a four lane road on Pico Canyon, I live in Southern Oaks and do not want the traffic and trash trucks coming down through this prestine area filled with wildlife and just natural beauty. Thats why we live here, but I wonder how LA can approve such a project without the people that live heres consent. I will take it up with the HOA, hopefully this will never happen, it will be a sad day if it does.
This city is lame all about the money
Steamed asparagus.
Desri Gross Meredith Anne Danford @ Stacy Lynn Prestridge that will impact us all!!
Quit issuing building permits!
Did not know you could get to west hills from Stevenson ranch Kim Sloan.
For the love of god repave the old road between Rye Canyon and Hasley Canyon, that road has seen about 50 years of neglect, some of those potholes could swallow a house cat
If this directs people off the 5, I am all for it. The 5 is the current disaster in SCV.
Look Kelly Asbra a faster way to your house in the future.
Why haven’t they connected Wiley canyon through to canyon country?
So much for the crazy over priced values in Stevenson Ranch. This plan drops those values back to Valencia levels once this is approved.
No more quaint, quiet Stevenson Ranch and Southern Oaks if this happens. I predict those upset will then move to the new Newhall Ranch neighborhoods and then be happy for this alternate to the clogged 126/5 route.
