SANTA CLARITA : Grant to Fund Purchase of Buffer Land Along Trails
- Share via
Santa Clarita city officials plan to buy land along planned recreational trails with a $492,000 grant received from the California Parks and Recreation Department.
The land will be a buffer to keep residents from leaving the trails designed for use by pedestrians, bicyclists and equestrians, and thus disrupting animals living along the Santa Clara River and other riparian and wetland areas.
In 1992, Santa Clarita applied for a pair of grants made available through the California Wildlife Protection Act of 1990. City officials are unsure how much land they will be able to purchase with the grants.
