Incorporated in 1959, Walnut was developed as a low-density, semi-rural residential community. Walnut is located between the 10, 57, and 60 freeways with accessibility to four (4) counties. The City provides a pleasant mixture of country living and urban convenience. The fundamental goal of the City is to continue its role as a suburban residential community and to preserve its rural character. The Mt. San Antonio Community College District (“Mt.

Our mission is to live in a world where chaos challenges every nation and every individual equally. Fear of violence, hatred, persecution, misuse of religious and financial uncertainty follows us all. We stand divided in belief, nationalities and even within © countries-– ideology. We are a world that often seems bereft of hope or a unifying vision. It is our goal to turn the world’s eyes to the beauty that exist in front of us all. It is my hope that we will play a part in art and creativity returning everyone to the abundance that surrounds us all. When you look at our little planet from space, its singular beauty is clearly seen. Its smallness in the great void should communicate that we all live in one home. This world of ours is exactly that, it is a world of OURS; a place for all of us to share, build and nurture. Regardless of your religious beliefs, I hope you still believe in Love and Peace for all. Lets define God in his purest form as love and peace, and with this new definition, help each other and help build our home in a way that there is enough for all of us.

  • Fire Risk on the Centennial Specific Plan Project Site
    December 6, 2018 Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors 856 Kenneth Hahn Hall of Administration 500 W. Temple Street Los Angeles CA, 90012 Submitted electronically to: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] CC: [email protected], [email protected] Clarification of Fire Risk on the Centennial Specific Plan Project Site Dear Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, Thank you very much for the continued opportunity to provide input on the Centennial Specific Plan (“Centennial”). As an organization, the California Native Plant Society (“CNPS”) is very concerned with the potential impacts of Centennial. CNPS has detailed the reasons why we oppose Centennial in numerous comment letters that focus on the project’s unacceptable impacts to irreplaceable grassland habitats, lack of appropriate mitigation, inappropriate use of Cap-and-Trade, and other issues. One issue that continues to be a major concern to CNPS members and the general public is that the Centennial project site is a dangerous place to build a new city for nearly 60,000 people. Chief among our concerns are the facts that project site is designated by CalFire as a High or Very High Fire Severity Zone (see Attachment 1), and that Centennial would be built on/adjacent to California’s two largest earthquake faults, the Garlock and San Andreas (see Attachment 2). The issue of greenlighting large development projects in areas with high fire danger should be a primary concern to decision-makers. The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors should regard wildfire as a major liability in their pending decision on Centennial.

After a wildfire there is a Housing growth window of opportunity for residents and public agencies to re-shape patterns of development, and avoid Wildland urban interface development in locations that are inherently at higher risk of wildfire destruction. We examined 28 of the most Policy destructive wildfiresin California, the state where most buildings are destroyed by wildfires,to evaluate whether Planning locations of rebuilt and newly constructed buildings were adaptive (i.e., if building occurred in lower risk areas). In total, these fires burned 7,075 buildings from 1970 to 2009. We found minimal evidence for adaptation both in the number and placement of buildings post-fire.

First of all, I would like to personally thank Mr. Paul R. Spitzzeri, Collections Manager of the Workman and Temple Family Homestead Museum in the City of Industry. Mr. Spitzzeri has not only been resourceful in his knowledge of Rancho La Puente, but his generosity and sincerity in providing key documents was the critical element in describing how the Puente Hills has played a vital part in the history of Southern California. Paul, I can’t thank you enough for this. I would also like to personally thank Ms. Lynn Bremer, Director of the Santa Barbara Mission Archive-Library. Ms. Bremer was kind enough to send me a copy of a letter dated in 1816, which underscores the importance of the Puente Hills area to the missionaries at Mission San Gabriel. I also want to thank Dr. Janet Farrell Brodie of Claremont Graduate University for not only giving me critical feedback on this paper, but the opportunity to even write it. Much gratitude has to be given to the Puente Hills Landfill Habitat Authority for their charitableness in allowing us to write a piece of local history.

Graves http://www.loc.gov/resource/calbk.095 LOVINGLY DEDICATED TO MY WIFE ALICE H. GRAVES PREFACE Time flies so swiftly, that I can hardly realize so many years have elapsed since I, a child five years of age, passed through the Golden Gate, to become a resident of California. I have always enjoyed reading of the experiences of California pioneers, who came here either before or after I did. The thought came to me, that possibly other people would enjoy an account of the experiences of my seventy years in the State, during which I participated in the occurrences of a very interesting period of the State's development. As, during all of my life, to think has been to act, this is the only excuse or apology I can offer for this book. J. A. GRAVES. ix CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE I FAMILY HISTORY. MARYSVILLE IN 1857. COL.
