awarded Friends of Coyote Hills $1500 in matching funds to
help defray the costs of hiring a biologist to review the
Draft Environmental Impact Report and other scientific documents
related to the proposed development of West Coyote Hills.
West Coyote
Hills is the last remaining viable natural area in Fullerton
and surrounding communities in Orange and Los Angeles Counties.
Studies continue to show that open space is necessary to
the economic well being of a community as well as to the
health of its citizens.
Recognizing
that the need for open space in this heavily urbanized area
is acute, Friends of Coyote Hills (FCH) has been working
for more than two years to preserve the site as a park and
reserve with access for recreation and education. FCH is
a Fullerton-based, volunteer group dedicated to preserving
the 510 acres of West Coyote Hills as a park and reserve
for now and the future. FCH is under the umbrella organization,
Friends of Harbors, Beaches and Parks which received the
grant on behalf of Friends of Coyote Hills.
