The controversy builds…
By: Patte Gilbert
For years, Calabasas residents have grumbled over who gets access to Calabasas Lake. The 21 acre, man-made lake allows fishing and boating for members of the home owners association but excludes other Calabasas residents. Many argue that as residents, they pay taxes which contribute to the upkeep of the lake and ought to maintain access to the lake as well.
On April 14th, The Calabasas City Council voted 4-0 in favor of asking a neutral party to decide on the outcome of the dispute. The city attorney and city manager will thus decide on the form of dispute resolution, such as a declaratory action from a judge. Stay tuned for this issue to play out.
