A concerned Fillmore citizen sent the following comment: “The Malibu Broad Beach is about to undergo a large sand delivery and renovation project starting this fall. The sand will be trucked through Fillmore from Grimes Canyon at the rate of hundreds of trucks every day for 10 years. The City of Moorpark sued to prevent the trucks from going through their town. It will most likely cause traffic jams, noise, pollution, difficulty for the commuters who live in Fillmore to get into and out of town, long delays on Highway 126, obstacles to egress store fronts from the highway, etc. According to the Ventura County Star, ‘Moorpark City Attorney Kevin Ennis contends the agreement is a lawful one aimed at protecting Moorpark residents from the environmental impacts of the trucks traveling through their city.’” Fillmore, along with Ventura County, are in the process of suing Malibu’s Broad Beach replenishment project and Moorpark over the agreement. They contend the VC Superior Court lawsuit is illegal. The fall start date for sand deliveries may be stalled by the lawsuit. Photo courtesy www.waymarking.com
