Re: Opposition to the Proposed Light Display in Huntington Beach Central Park

We, the undersigned, strongly oppose the planned light display in Huntington Beach Central Park due to its harmful impact on local wildlife, particularly the bird habitat.

Why We Oppose the Light Display:

✔ Disrupts Bird Habitat – Central Park is home to diverse bird species, including migratory and nesting birds. Artificial lighting interferes with their natural behaviors, leading to disorientation, nesting failure, and long-term population decline.

✔ Increases Light Pollution & Environmental Harm – Excessive artificial lighting disturbs nocturnal wildlife, alters ecosystems, and disrupts natural cycles.

✔ Threatens Conservation Efforts – Huntington Beach Central Park is one of the city’s last natural sanctuaries. A large-scale light installation contradicts the goal of preserving green spaces for future generations.

✔ Causes Public Disruption – Increased traffic, noise, and artificial lighting will negatively impact the peaceful enjoyment of the park for residents, nature lovers, and visitors.

Our Request:

We urge the Huntington Beach City Council to:
➡ Cancel the proposed light display in Huntington Beach Central Park.
➡ Conduct a full environmental impact study before making decisions that could harm local wildlife.
➡ Consider alternative locations that do not interfere with delicate ecosystems.
➡ Prioritize eco-friendly initiatives that align with Huntington Beach’s values of nature conservation and sustainability.

By signing this petition, we demand that city officials protect one of the last remaining natural sanctuaries in our community.
