Santa Clarita Real Estate

Making her first visit to Santa Clarita, Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein  "You’ve really built this city," Feinstein told the audience of roughly 400 gathered at the Hyatt Valencia’s Grand Ballroom. "I think you can be very proud of it."
The topics included the Cemex mine planned outside Santa Clarita to the war in Iraq.
Feinstein told the crowd she visited the mine site in Soledad Canyon before Tuesday’s luncheon. Mexico-based Cemex has plans to operate a 56.1million- ton aggregate mine, and Feinstein has offered to mediate between the company and the city.
Cemex officials announced earlier this year that they called off plans to open the mine next year and want to negotiate a compromise with the city instead. The city has bankrolled a roughly $8million campaign to scale down or block the mine, planned for a hilly area outside city boundaries between Canyon Country and Agua Dulce.
Mayor Marsha McLean called Feinstein a Santa Clarita advocate for getting money for Interstate 5 restoration after the 1994 Northridge Earthquake, protecting Elsmere Canyon from becoming a landfill, securing money for the city’s senior center and championing other projects.
"Please know that Sen. Dianne Feinstein has answered our calls for help," McLean said. "And that the result of her leadership has brought our federal tax dollars back into Santa Clarita in a way that touches each one of us."
