  • 4.3 Cultural Resources
    4.3 CULTURAL RESOURCES INTRODUCTION W & S Consultants, (W&S) conducted an archaeological survey of the project site that included an archival record search conducted at the local California Historic Resource Information System (CHRIS) repository at the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) located on the campus of California State University, Fullerton. In July 2010, a field survey of the 1.2-mile proposed project site was conducted. The archaeological survey report can be found in Appendix 4.3. Mitigation measures are recommended which would reduce potential impacts to unknown archeological resources within the project site, potential impacts to paleontological resources, and the discovery of human remains during construction to less than significant. PROJECT BACKGROUND Ethnographic Setting Tataviam The upper Santa Clara Valley region, including the study area, was inhabited during the ethnographic past by an ethnolinguistic group known as the Tataviam.1 Their language represents a member of the Takic branch of the Uto-Aztecan linguistic family.2 In this sense, it was related to other Takic languages in the Los Angeles County region, such as Gabrielino/Fernandeño (Tongva) of the Los Angeles Basin proper, and Kitanemuk of the Antelope Valley. The Tataviam are thought to have inhabited the upper Santa Clara River drainage from about Piru eastwards to just beyond the Vasquez Rocks/Agua Dulce area; southwards as far as Newhall and the crests of the San Gabriel and Santa Susana Mountains; and northwards to include the middle reaches of Piru Creek, the Liebre Mountains, and the southwesternmost fringe of Antelope Valley.3 Their northern boundary most likely ran along the northern foothills of the Liebre Mountains (i.e., the edge of Antelope Valley), and then crossed to the southern slopes of the Sawmill Mountains and Sierra Pelona, extending 1 NEA, and King, Chester.

  • Three Chumash-Style Pictograph Sites in Fernandeño Territory
    THREE CHUMASH-STYLE PICTOGRAPH SITES IN FERNANDEÑO TERRITORY ALBERT KNIGHT SANTA BARBARA MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY There are three significant archaeology sites in the eastern Simi Hills that have an elaborate polychrome pictograph component. Numerous additional small loci of rock art and major midden deposits that are rich in artifacts also characterize these three sites. One of these sites, the “Burro Flats” site, has the most colorful, elaborate, and well-preserved pictographs in the region south of the Santa Clara River and west of the Los Angeles Basin and the San Fernando Valley. Almost all other painted rock art in this region consists of red-only paintings. During the pre-contact era, the eastern Simi Hills/west San Fernando Valley area was inhabited by a mix of Eastern Coastal Chumash and Fernandeño. The style of the paintings at the three sites (CA-VEN-1072, VEN-149, and LAN-357) is clearly the same as that found in Chumash territory. If the quantity and the quality of rock art are good indicators, then it is probable that these three sites were some of the most important ceremonial sites for the region. An examination of these sites has the potential to help us better understand this area of cultural interaction. This article discusses the polychrome rock art at the Burro Flats site (VEN-1072), the Lake Manor site (VEN-148/149), and the Chatsworth site (LAN-357). All three of these sites are located in rock shelters in the eastern Simi Hills. The Simi Hills are mostly located in southeast Ventura County, although the eastern end is in Los Angeles County (Figure 1).

This includes implementing the vision of the first and subsequent City Councils to buffer the Santa Clarita Valley with a greenbelt to help maintain the character and quality of life for residents. During “The Big Picture” Community Strategic Planning process in 2004, several open space goals were reaffirmed. Additionally, in 2007 a number of community members spoke to the Council in support of preserving undeveloped land and asked the Council to, once again, pursue the creation of a mechanism to finance the acquisition and preservation of undeveloped land. In April 2007, the City Council adopted a resolution to initiate the formation of the City of Santa Clarita Open Space Preservation District.

  • Stormwater Management
    3.3 Stormwater Management 3.3 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT This section of the Technical Background Report describes the background, identifies general drainage patterns, existing and future conditions, and related issues in the planning area. The various sources used in the preparation of this chapter include county and local resources such as Ventura County Public Works Agency Watershed Protection District and City of Simi Valley. 3.3.1 Background The City of Simi Valley is located in the southeastern portion of Ventura County immediately adjacent to Los Angeles County. The developed portions of the City are situated primarily on the valley floor with proposed development extending up to the alluvial fans coming out of canyons. The valley is defined by the Santa Susana Mountains on the north and east and by the Simi Hills on the south. The Santa Susana Mountains separate the Simi Valley from the Santa Clara River Valley and Towns Fillmore and Piru to the north. The Simi Hills separate the valley from the City of Thousand Oaks to the southwest, and Moorpark Sphere of Influence separates the western limit.19 The major drainage course through the valley is the Arroyo Simi. The Arroyo Simi is approximately 11.7 miles in length. This major creek drains from the extreme limits of the watershed in the east and northeast, then westerly through the Las Posas Valley (As Arroyo Las Posas) to the Oxnard Plain (as Calleguas Creek) and the Pacific Ocean. Tributaries to Arroyo Simi from the Santa Susana Mountains on the north are (from west to east), Alamos Canyon, Brea Canyon, North Simi Drain, Dry Canyon, Tapo Canyon, Chivo Canyon, and Las Llajas Canyon.
