Riverside Superior Court judge Daniel Ottolia said in his ruling that the transaction agreement did not prevent agencies from pursuing other route options, and that it did not commit TCA to extend the line. This page contains information on a dispute between the Save San Onofre Coalition and the Transportation Corridor Agencies (TCA) in November 2016. The Save San Onofre Coalition was created to protect San Onofre State Beach from a planned toll road. The Save San Onofre Coalition is made up of 12 California and national environmental organizations, including Audubon California, California Coastal Protection Network, California State Parks Foundation, Defenders of Wildlife, Endangered Habitat League, Laguna Greenbelt, Inc., Natural Resources Defense Council, Orange County Coastkeeper, Sea and Sage Audubon Society, Sierra Club, Surfrider Foundation and WiLDCOAST/COASTALVAjE The Surfrider Foundation`s priorities have always focused on protecting coastal resources and improving access to the sea. The San Mateo Creek Basin is one of the least developed in South Orange County and is responsible for the creation of the world-renowned Trestles surf spot, the only surfing site in North America that is part of the annual World Championship Tour Surf Event. The proposed alignment could have had an impact not only on local coastal resources, but also on the fact that it would have set a precedent for the transformation of public parks into private development. The historic 2016 contract protected a natural park for millions of people and contributes more than $8 million a year to San Clemente. The colony ended one of the most contested ecological battles in California`s history and protected the coast for these generations and for future generations. The mission of the Save San Onofre Coalition was to protect San Onofre State Beach for the more than 2.5 million people who come from all over the world to use it. Not to fight all the toll roads. We accomplished this mission with the historic colonization agreement. c) Among the issues that can be resolved by an out-of-court settlement agreement, the judge found that TCA`s board of directors, when it approved the 2016 transaction, had also authorized Kraman to conclude the 2017 safeguard agreement – which was also a transaction clause approved by the Board of Directors by 10 to 2 votes. A pioneering agreement that paves the way for a solution to improve mobility in South Orange County and the Southern California region was awarded by the Association of Southern California Governments (SCAG) at the 2017 Sustainability Awards.
“The Transaction Agreement (TCA) leaves open several viable options for the completion of the State Highway 241 extension project (“SR-241″), which could be identified, evaluated and potentially pursued in a manner consistent with existing legislation and meeting the transportation needs of the CAW,” the judgment states.
