Could You Raise $3 Million In Three Weeks? That's The Price Of Saving Hollywood Sign's Environs

• Being that the campaign continuously misrepresents that the Hollywood sign is in jeopardy. It isn't. The Hollywood sign is on Mt. Lee and already part of Griffith Park. But Fox River, loves the publicity and contributions they will receive and most will let them keep. But no one is really is asking, where will my money go? yes, it will buy a wonderfu piece of land, but it will ultimately wind up in a greedy land speculators pocket. A $10 million windfall over 8 years on less than a $2 million investment. This type of blackmail is common practice of land speculators. Buy property as sneaky as possible next to landmarks and threaten to build on it. We've seen it throughout Malibu and the SM mountains, now we are seeing it next to the Hollywood sign. Why the ability to subdivide in a difficult to next to impossible terrain raises a value 600% is questionable. Especially because most property has fallen 20-60% over the same period. If anything, these grassroot efforts should be pressuring the owner, Fox River to accept what has been raised rather than pay their demands and continue the vicious circle.
