Conservancy Grateful for Budget Support
- Share via
* On Aug. 2, 1995, AB 903, the 1995-96 budget bill introduced by Assembly member Vasconcellos passed. The Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy is grateful to the governor and the resources agency for our inclusion in the bill, restoring almost all of our general fund.
Park agencies are facing austere times with no new park funding sources or park bonds on the horizon; we therefore feel truly fortunate in receiving these funds. Because of the governor’s foresight, the conservancy will continue its mission of forming an interlinking system of public parks, open space, trails, and wildlife habitat areas for all to enjoy.
