Alarcon: 'I will be the first to oppose...'

Councilman Richard Alarcon said he will be the first person to vote against Las Lomas if it worsens traffic on Interstate 5 or damages a wildlife corridor. But first he wants a full environmental study.

"Mr. Smith would have you believe a vote against the moiton is a vote for Las Lomas. The vote is a vote to protect the taxpayers from a lawsuit in which the developer will prevail."

But, he said, he is afraid of the legal repercussions if the city goes against the City Attorney's recommendations.
