Commissioners: I am writing in support of Oswit Land Trust’s request to restore property to a native desert habitat
and nature preserve. This property had fallen into disrepair from disuse. Since the Land Trust bought it and took it
over, they have worked to make it more accessible to all, not just club members. It is becoming recognized as a gem
in the city by humans and non-humans. It is a prefect example of the kind of development that Palm Springs needs
to continue to attract a diversity of wildlife and people. Natural areas have been shown to provide mitigation from
climate change and from the stresses of modern life. Even though I live in Palm Desert, I have visited this property
many times usually to go birdwatching.
Thank you for your consideration. Frank Sterrett
