Trestles Saved!

The Trestles toll road crashes today after the Department of Commerce upheld the California Coastal Commission’s objection to the proposed environmental nemesis of San Clemente. After years of debate and dedication from rightfully concerned residents, surfers, and environmental activists, the commission objected to the proposed project under the federal Coastal Zone Management Act on the grounds that the toll road was not consistent with the state’s coastal zone management program. Woot, woot! This is great news...Adam and I spent an afternoon down there surfing...and we were talking about how horrible it would be to have that highway going through this beautiful beach. We signed petitions and have kept watch to see what would happen. It is official there will be no toll road and that this area will remain beautiful! Just thought I would write a qucik note about this.
