O’Neill Park
Without fanfare, quietly, the County Board of Supervisors is considering a proposal to turn O’Neill Regional Park into a Rancho Santa Margarita Country Club.
The park is a quiet respite from ever increasing urbanization.
Now, in addition to being threatened by encroaching housing tracts, the wilderness park is threatened by proposals to add tennis courts, swimming pools, playing fields, paved motorcycle trails and an amphitheater.
This would destroy the rural character and wildlife habitats of O”Neill Park and turn it into just another urban playground. Let’s keep O”Neill Park natural!
