Leading up to a City Council hearing on August 1st to dedicate Rose Creek a a park, many media outlets covered the issue. I was heart broken that San Diego City Council, despite multiple opportunities, declined to include park dedication for Rose Creek as part of the Balboa Avenue Station Area Specific Plan approval. For fifteen years, our small group of volunteers has been the only people caring for an urban creek and salt marsh. We want to the City of San Diego to be our partners in this by providing park rangers, regular trash pickup, and working with us on obtaining grant opportunities for improvements in the area.
Various members of the Friends of Rose Creek and our supporters were interviewed by KPBS News, Channel 8 News, Fox 5 News, Beach & Bay Press, and KUSI news. Check out this great summary of the issues by ReWild Mission Bay.
