Below is our early explanation of the situation when Los Encinos State Historic Park was threatened.
The State did find over 30 million dollars of unreported funds in the parks department and this meant Los Encinos State Historic Park was among most threatened parks that were now safe.
Los Encinos SHP is a wonderful place.
(Early info) State budget cuts left Los Encinos and sixty-nine other state parks on schedule to close in 2012. Members of the community, local organizations, volunteers, and other stakeholders continue to work together to keep parks open. Los Encinos is OPEN. With your ongoing support and help, we SaveD Los Encinos and kept this special park open.
When State Senator for district including park, Fran Pavley, wrote in correspondence about keeping the park open that part of her efforts include, "...working with the Los Encinos Docent Association and the City of Los Angeles to help form a partnership that could keep the park open." The Los Encinos Docent Association plays a major role in keeping the park open.
