Let Them Eat Cake!

CalTrans lost some of their employee housing in the Angeles National Forest. They have been put up in houses supplied by CalTrans (they own a lot of property along the proposed 710 Fwy corridor). Plans are already in the works to rebuild these houses and get the families back in as soon as possible.

Jody Noiron, on the other hand, has lost twelve employee residences plus the barracks at Mill Creek. She has made no effort to help the employees that were living in them. No cash assistance, no requests for FEMA trailers, nothing. And like CalTrans, the Forest Service does own vacant houses, as well as barracks. The displaced families have not been offered the use these properties. What's more, she has banned ALL employees from returning home. The forest is closed to them too, and if they attempt to return home, they will be fired!
