Bernson’s Appeal Came Too Late

Hal Bernson sat back and did nothing to help the residents resist the county courthouse that has been approved at Winnetka and Plummer in Chatsworth.

Now, when it is much too late, he comes out and appeals for funds to help contest it on the basis that he wants to help his constituents.

This is the same political opportunist that almost single-handedly pushed through the huge Porter Ranch expansion, then hand-picked the commission to make an environmental impact report. Now he disputes its findings, which prove what we have all been saying from the outset--that smog and traffic gridlock will devastate the area. I hope the voters are mindful of Councilman Bernson’s political gyrations the next time we get the chance to vote him out of office.
