Santa Clarita: Chapter 20: Inside Elsmere Canyon
Chapter 20 INSIDE ELSMERE CANYON The story of the fight against Elsmere Canyon dump needs to be told apart from the normal run of events in the history of Santa Clarita. I do not recall exactly when we became aware of the county’s plans to site a landfill dump in Elsmere Canyon, part of which was owned by BKK Corporation, but it was sometime during the process of discussing our proposed boundaries with Ruth Benell at LAFCO prior to incorporation. She made it clear that we could not have any part of San Fernando Road east of the Antelope Valley Freeway in the city because of the dump planned for Elsmere Canyon, which was east of the Antelope Valley Freeway in the pass between Santa Clarita and Los Angeles. Both Fred Bien and George Caravalho were made aware of the proposed dump, but it did not make the news in a significant way until about nine months after we incorporated. On September 22 I urged the council to go on record as asking landowners in the vicinities of Towsley and Elsmere Canyons if they would be willing to sell to our city. The Sanitation Districts were going to offer options of $10,000 per acre for land in Towsley Canyon. At the time our yearly budget was $13 million, and we did not know how much land we could buy, but Jan Heidt agreed, “It’s time we stood up and said, ‘Get off our backs.’” By that time I had been commuting from my home near Calgrove and I-5 to San Fernando High School for twenty-two years. -
