LA County supervisors today voted 4 to 1 to approve a massive new housing development at Tejon Ranch, which is about 70 miles northwest of downtown L.A., and considered a high fire zone. Sheila Kuehl was the nay vote. The project will bring more than 19,000 homes to the area. There was a lot of public comment for and against the project.
Have we learned our lesson about building in a fire zone?
