Protect Your Legacy! Don't Let Your TRUSTEE Sell Your Property to DEVELOPERS!

The wash area off of Belardo near Ramon and back by the mountain, is one of the few untouched land areas that the local wildlife like big horn sheep, bobcats, mountain lions, bunnies, roadrunners, toads, frogs, snakes, skunks, raccoons, ringtails, foxes, birds, etc here can safely call home.

UNTIL NOW.

Word on the street is that a developer is set to buy this land and turn into high density housing.

This is WRONG.

The community should be given a chance to save our wildlife.

IS NOTHING SACRED?

This should have a preservation status and environmental protections. 

We will soon give details on how to help in this mission to SAVE our desert and preserve it in the Oswit Land Trust.

Stay tuned.

Dear Palm Springs City Planning, 

I am writing to express my opposition to a housing development in the Historic Tennis Club Neighborhood between La Mirada and Belardo, south of Ramon.

This critical area at the base of the mountain supports fragile desert habitat and is vital for native wildlife, including bighorn sheep, bobcats, burrowing owls, nighthawks, and other species that depend on undisturbed open space.

Further development in this ecologically sensitive zone would threaten these animals, intensify pressure on water resources, disrupt hydrology, and erode the natural character that makes Palm Springs unique, and which is becoming scarce in the city.

I ask that my comments be entered into the public record and that I be notified of upcoming hearings or opportunities for public input.

Thank you for your time and for your dedication to preserving Palm Springs' environment and quality of life.


Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[Neighborhood or Community Name]
Palm Springs, CA
