Hello! We are your neighbors, we live next to Encanto Park, and we are forming a new group: DANORA, (Duarte/Azusa Neighborhood River Association)-please check out our website, below. Mountain Cove is in the shadow of Fish Canyon. Is everyone aware of the current proposal by the Vulcan Mining Co. to Azusa City Council to expand Vulcan's mining operation by 80 more acres into the San Gabriel mountains and canyon at Fish Canyon ?? There is a newspaper article detailing the Vulcan expansion on the DANORA website. This expansion will shear the top ridge off the mountain, causing more permanent scarring, in addition to the scarring already viewed by anyone who looks up at Fish Canyon. From the article, in addition to potential loss of property value: "A proposed excavation plan, expected to reach the Azusa City Council for approval sometime this spring, will cause noise, dust, truck traffic and health problems, they said." There is an upcoming presentation to Duarte City Council by Vulcan on April 26, 7 p.m. 1600 Huntington Dr., Duarte. Please attend if you can, it will be informative, then you could take the issue up with Azusa City Council. These two cities, and the good folk who live within, must get together on this. Also, let us know if you wish to attend our next DANORA meeting, we will email you the details. Folks, let's get together to preserve the natural beauty and protect our environment. www.danoracanyon.com
