CSPF Declares 2009 "Year for Park Protection"

As part of its Seventh Annual Park Advocacy Day, the California State Parks Foundation (CSPF) issued an ambitious policy challenge to state policymakers and advocates. Declaring 2009 as the "Year for Park Protection," CSPF President Elizabeth Goldstein called on state lawmakers and park advocates to pass legislation that will protect state parks from inappropriate development and damaging infrastructure.

This announcement comes three years to the day when CSPF, other environmental groups, and the state Attorney General filed California Environmental Quality Act lawsuits to protect San Onofre State Beach from a proposed toll road.

"The lawsuits three years ago today were an important milestone in the fight to protect state parks, but it is a fight that continues today," declared Elizabeth Goldstein. "We filed those suits not just to protect San Onofre State Beach, but as a means to protect all state parks and we're here in Sacramento today to lobby the Legislature to keep that work alive. On December 18, 2088 the state parks movement won important victories for park protection outside the legislative process and we're here to capitalize on that momentum."
