Forget us not!
That's the admonishment issued recently by Seal Beach Development Services Director Mark Persico, in a letter to an environmental consultant for the Joint Forces Training Base in Los Alamitos.
AMEC Earth & Environmental, of Santa Barbara, sent notices of the project to Los Alamitos, but reportedly failed to include Seal Beach in providing a "Notice of Intent" and a 30-day public comment period for proposed headquarter facilities at the base, Persico said in a letter dated April 8.
"Seal Beach shares a northern and eastern boundary with the JFTB, and activities on the base could potentially affect Seal Beach residents," Persico noted. "We would like to be consulted on all future projects at the JFTB."
