MORONGO BASIN MAC GETS PREVIEW OF APPEALS ON TWO JOSHUA TREE DEVELOPMENTS

The Morongo Basin Municipal Advisory Council met last night. Reporter David Haldane said they got a preview of upcoming appeals to be filed against the recent approval of two controversial Joshua Tree developmentsā€¦
The San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors is about to get an earful, judging from the tone at last nightā€™s meeting of the Morongo Basin Municipal Advisory Council.
The council got a preview of appeals filed by local residents challenging two controversial projects recently approved by the county. Local architect Janet Johnston blasted the Alta Mira housing projectā€”which would put 248 homes on 115 acres in Joshua Treeā€”as inconsistent with the community plan. And Thomas Fjallstram, another Joshua Tree resident, characterized the Joshua Tree Solar Farmā€”planned on the 110 acres of the former Roy Williams Airportā€”as inappropriate for its location, unsightly and environmentally damaging.
ā€œWeā€™re extremely frustrated with the county. And yes, we consistently feel like the county reps are not listening to us. Weā€™re not being represented and the county doesnā€™t care about what our community wants.ā€
