Next weekend we’d like to help stop the 4-Story hotel that is going to forever block views and access to the National Historic DeAnza Trail<\/a> if it is built.\u00a0 We need to get a good turnout of ALL trail users so please help me by spreading the word and getting these flyers distributed to your friends, riding buddies, the greater mountain biking community and anyone who cares about the views of the Santa Monica Mountains.<\/p>\n

This trail is located right off the 101 at Las Virgenes and next to the Mobil Station, the trail connects to the New Millennium and is only one of two access points to the New Millennium trail.\u00a0 The designated National Historic DeAnza trail runs from south of Arizona in Mexico to San Francisco and celebrates the discoveries by Juan Bautista DeAnza.\u00a0 It is one of only 16 trails in the nation that went before congress and the White House (according to the MND report).<\/p>\n

The developer is being encouraged by the city to build a 4-Story hotel that will require that he put in substantial flood control measures, including a wall that will block access to the trail.\u00a0 Originally, they designed steps up and over the wall\u2026and have since proposed an ADA ramp.\u00a0 One of the developer\u2019s claims is that he is improving the trail for the community by putting in parking (4 shared spots with commuters and hotel guests), a doggie poo station and a trash can to justify the variance to the city\u2019s height restrictions and building in the Las Virgenes Scenic Corridor.\u00a0 There will be no vehicle access to the trail anymore from the west side of Calabasas\u2026only from Calabasas Road further east.<\/p>\n

We want to make sure that all trail users are there (most impacted will be the equestrians)\u2026because all will have impaired access to the trail.\u00a0 The developer has no plans for horse trailer parking and in fact has limited parking for other trail users unless the city \u201cgifts\u201d him the currently public Rondell street easement, that is currently used by trail users of all types, daily by commuters as a park and ride and now as a construction staging area for local infrastructure projects.<\/p>\n

Please come\u2026and spread the word to others too\u2026at 1pm on January 23rd<\/sup>.\u00a0 We need a big group of trail users and the community to make sure that our voices are heard.\u00a0 We\u2019re asking that mountain bikers\u00a0ride in\u2026, and park their cars either on Agoura Road or north of the freeway on Las Virgenes, since it is easier for us to ride in to the site. \u00a0Or make a day of it and ride New Millennium Loop before or after, parking\u00a0along Lost Hills Road and starting at the Bark Park.<\/p>\n

We also want to be respectful of local businesses who are already victimized by transient parking and need their lots for their customers.\u00a0 It will only get worse for local businesses if the two hotels go and housing development goes in with inadequate parking.\u00a0 That is why we are asking people to park legally on the street and hike\/ride in.<\/p>\n

Thank you for helping us spread the word\u2026this development is not a done deal.\u00a0 We need all the support we can get.<\/p>\n
