It’s not easy being green, that’s why Centennial and our partners work so hard at it. Tejon Ranch signed an historic conservation agreement with the nation’s leading environmental organizations (the Sierra Club, Natural Resources Defense Council, Audubon California, Planning and Conservation League and the Endangered Habitats League) that will permanently preserve up to 240,000 acres of Tejon Ranch. For those who love soccer, that is about 125,000 competition sized soccer fields!
So what does this mean for Centennial? Just like the Ranch, we at Centennial are committed to conservation. In fact, half of our site’s 11,700 acres will be open space with nearly 80 percent of the open space area looking exactly as it does today.
Our goal is use the land and resources to meet the housing, employment and lifestyle needs of current and future generations of Californians, while being guided by the Ranch’s core values of conservation and good stewardship.
If you haven’t already be sure to check out a community hike led by the Tejon Ranch Conservancy, which was created as part of the Tejon Ranch Conservation and Land Use Agreement. Just visit the website at: http://tejonranchconservancy.org/, and click on “Events”.
