Here is what the community said in 1959 about the Airport
Here are a few cartoons from the 2-24-95 Vanguard when the county was to purchase the airport and make it a public airport. The community voted nearly 66% to oppose the county purchase. We got the expansion and the conversion to a public airport by Barry and his pals, who ignored the vote. Read the letters and the strong opposition to the airport.

Here is the story we hope to never have to run
Agua Dulce - The near future - 30 Elementary students were killed today when a small twin took of in the normal takeoff pattern for the Santa Clarita Valley Regional Airport (Formally known as Agua Dulce Airpark). The recommended takeoff pattern was to make a quick turn and climb over a small mountain to avoid the School. In this case the pilot apparently failed to follow the pattern.
As school was at lunch, over 400 kids were in the playground. Many were burnt and maimed. They were transported directly from the school yard by med evac helicopters.............
This is from the 2-25-95 Vanguard when the community defeated by over 65% vote to stop the county purchase of the Airport.
