opposition to the Appeal. Ms. Benson identified there were 2 Written
Statement cards that were marked in favor of, and the intent was unclear.
She stated the Written Statement cards will be copied and provided to the

A discussion among the Council and staff focused on: 1) Definition of a
"truck trip"; 2) More than three times the number of truck trips would be
allowed by this project; 3) Unrealistic County conditions in regard to the
alternate route; 4) Issue of the County's lack of addressing Moorpark's

The only way to make the Board of Supervisors take a look at this is to
Appeal the County Planning Commission's EIR.
