In February of 2004,
a
few Oak Glen business competitors signed a petition full of falsehoods
about our farm and family. Since then thousands of you
have told the county of San Bernardino how much Riley's Farm Means to
you. That support has helped our response to the county
beyond measure. We have a long
fight ahead of us, but all of you make it worth the effort.
Thank you! |

March 2006,
It's coming down to the wire! Do
you want to see a living history farm in Oak Glen or should the Riley
family pack up and go. Attend the San Bernardino
County Planning Commission meeting on March 23, 2006.
Details.

By July of 2005,
the Riley Family had spent more than $50,000 in application and study
fees, in order to meet county land use requirements--more than any
other similar Oak Glen business undergoing a conditional use permit
application. All of the studies indicate our
application will have little, if any, impact on our neighbors.
Meanwhile, at least two of the complainers are operating businesses
without any land use permits at all. |
April 2006:
we won at the planning commission, but our opponents have appealed the
decision and they are trying to attack us on the environmental front.
David Meyers of the Wildlands Conservancy has given us his support and
he says they will not be a part of environmental suit.
We do need your help, though, fighting off
the legal threat. |
