Vernal Pool

Re “Pooling Their Resources,” June 8.

There is a very simple, effective, economical solution to preserving the endangered vernal pool located at the entranceway to Moorpark on Route 23: Don’t build anything on the south side of the development.

This would:

* Preserve the pool.

* Preserve the picturesque view.

* Preserve what little wildlife and natural habitat are left in Moorpark.

* Send a message to future developers that the residents are more interested in preservation than development.
