Comment:
I live in western Riverside County which has some of the worst air
quality in the nation.  Riverside County Supervisors just approved
the Villages of Lakeview Housing project this past March.  It will
have more than 11,000 units with almost no permanent jobs.  It is
in the middle of farm land and adjacent to San Jacinto Wildlife
Area which is a core reserve of the Multi-Species Habitat
Conservation Plan.  The EIR for the project stated that at least
15,000 Daily Commuters will be produced by this single leapfrog
project.  SCAG needs to reduce VMT significantly and not just rely
on increasing gas mileage of cars/light trucks to reduce GHG
emissios. Counties should not be in the business creating new
cities in the middle of farmland as they did in Riverside with the
Villages of Lakeview. Creating infill, building adjacent to
existing cities and protecting Agriculture should be a priority in
your final product.
