Who owns this land?

If the land is owned by the people who want to develop it, then the environmentalists are not in any position to "negotiate."

But they only want 245,000 acres out of the 270,000!

Tejon Ranch

Site of one of the worst earthquakes in CA history.

As I recall my California history. I think the Tejon ranch was owned years ago by the same corporation that owned the LA Times. The Chandler family? Now I know the Times is owned by some conglomerate now, but I dont know about the ranch. But seems to me over 100,000 acres preserved out of 200K some is a good plan. Developers should now say. Forget the enviromentalists and develop the whole danged thing! LOL!

A coalition of environmental groups says it will withdraw its opposition to development of the sprawling Tejon Ranch if the builder agrees to set aside about 380 square miles in the Tehachapi Mountains as wilderness.

The MOB has nothing on these guys.

I say we make it a hunting preserve... I'll take the Democratic Leadership with me.
