Supervisors commenting on Development in East County:

“My constituents and I have raised serious concerns for years about the potential impact of industrial-scale energy projects in our backcountry. This isn’t a case of a vocal minority making noise. I hear concerns all across my district, in many communities, that these mammoth projects threaten to destroy natural resources, heighten the risk of wildfire and rob rural communities of their quality of life ….” – County Supervisor Dianne Jacob (Read More

” …. Sadly, Boulevard residents are going to be surrounded by large wind turbines on federal, Imperial County, and tribal lands.  The County Board of Supervisors has no control over the approval of those turbines.  In all likelihood, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors will consider only two or three applications for wind turbines near Boulevard.

 Question: My kids really want to go tent camping in the mountains, but I’ve never gone before and I’m worried about diseases they can get from wildlife. If it’s harmful, odds are my kids will find it!  I read that locally squirrels have been found with plague? And is West Nile virus still around, and can you get it from sick birds? What should I be concerned about, are there places we should avoid?-  Barbara S. in Rancho Santa Fe
