Keep Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History Land in the County

Victory! The creator of this petition declared the campaign a success. You can still sign the petition to show support.

We do not support the annexation of the woodland acres from the County to the City. Further, we do not want the City to take control from the County the entry into Mission Canyon from the bridge to Puesta del Sol or an Easement for Las Encinas Road annexed to the City.

Why is this important?

The City/Museum's land grab attempt needs to be stopped.
Piecemeal annexation is detrimental. It is up to LAFCO (Local Agency Formation Commission), the County’s public commission that makes land jurisdiction decisions, to decide the fate of this special area. We need your help to preserve the scenic Mission Canyon Corridor. We do not want to lose Oak and Sycamore trees; we need your help to maintain the character of this special area. The density for development in the City is higher than the County and potentially would disrupt the rural/urban environment and open spaces.
