What happens when a community puts up 'No Trespassing' signs on public open space?
" 'No trespassing' signs were recently posted to keep out hikers and equestrians who have traversed the lush canyon for decades, even without the trails that were to have been built as part of the agreement with Los Angeles County.
That kind of talk rankles association members, who point out that, although developers made such promises, the county failed to enforce them. It is unfair, they say, for the county to now make legal demands of the association that it didn't make of the developer."
