Proposed
use restriction for Vasquez Park proposed by LA County Parks.
It would appear that the County is scaling back the commercial use, limited entertainment to 500 persons which makes
sure the 4th of July fireworks will never return to the Rocks. It will keep the Rocks as a
natural area - not commercial venue as the Agua Dulce Chamber of Commerce and Art Brewer
wanted
Vasquez Rocks
Park and VRNCA See the letters asking that the
Vasquez Rocks nature center associate's financial records be made public. Of
course they refuse to open their books to the public or to member for that matter. The VRNCA has spent, from what we can find out, nothing on the park but is
actively lobbing to hold fireworks shows and to build a museum to draw in outsiders. They
claim that anyone opposing fireworks at Vasquez Park is "un-American".
Vasquez
Park Expansion An alternate plan is proposed.
Vasquez Rocks Park and VRNCA See the letters asking that the Vasquez Rocks nature center associates financial
records to be made public.
LA County Parks turned down the Agua Dulce
Chamber of Commerce and Outlaw town council request to have the 1997 4th of July
fireworks show at Vasquez Park. Supervision Antonovich adds in this letter dated 3-11-97:
"I am sorry we are unable to accommodate your request, but I believe you will
agree that protecting these resources has to be our highest
priority"
If Art Brewer, the Outlaw town council, and his followers really cared about the park
they would never ask to have a big event "to put Agua Dulce on the Map". The
park is a natural center and preserve it was never indented to serve as commercial venue.
