2. The @SCAGnews Regional Council unanimously adopted the 2024 Connect SoCal Plan. We continued to urge SCAG to adopt more robust policies and mitigation measures to further reduce impacts to habitats. @FHBP_OC led the coalition to comment and support this plan.

We are saddened to learn of Allan Beek's passing. He committed countless hours to improve the environment, the Back Bay, & the City of Newport Beach. May the memory of his life, his dry humor, and his legacy live on. Our deepest condolences to his family. stunewsnewport.com/fair-game…
