The Future of El Toro

The controversy over the El Toro airport has shaped Orange County politics for years as families, friends and neighbors split over whether the old El Toro Marine Base should be converted to a regional airport or a great park. As supporters lobby for transportation center, park activists gather signatures to put a park initiative on the March ballot. The outcome will transform the county, impacting the future of all of Southern California. We bring together politicians and grass-root activists from both sides to hear their arguments, and take questions from our Orange County audience.
