Arroyo Seco Cleanup vs Sacred Ground | Los Angeles News
Description
LA’s Arroyo Seco cleanup sparks outrage as cities plan to cut 140 mature trees to install pipes—only for much of the purified water to irrigate a public golf course. Indigenous groups and locals protest, calling the site sacred and demanding water for communities, not courses. Critics question the project’s approach, urging pollution source fixes instead. Amid protests and a pending lawsuit, the Gabrieleño Kizh Nation joins the outcry, while officials defend the plan as legally compliant and environmentally enhanced. With public comment deadlines looming, the battle over how to heal the Arroyo Seco—and who it serves—rages on.
