This is a brief introduction to the organization and its early years. It is based on information in the records and an unpublished
description written by Joanna Brand.
Laguna Greenbelt, Incorporated (LGI) is a nonprofit environmental organization, founded in 1968 and incorporated in 1970.
LGI's projects and strategic goals revolve around the environs of Laguna Beach, California. The organization seeks to preserve
10,000 acres of land for a greenbelt around the city. A greenbelt entails land set aside for agriculture, recreational parks
or reserved open space and specifically excludes commercial development. LGI defines Laguna Greenbelt as Sycamore Hills, a
land parcel vegetated with mature sycamore trees, and five canyons: Aliso, El Toro, Laguna, Morro and Wood. LGI has initiated
and participated in local, regional and state-wide preservation efforts. Working both with and against municipal governments
and commercial enterprises, it has promoted and opposed myriad projects affecting the environment.
This grassroots, citizens' group evolved from an ad hoc committee, the Citizens Town Planning Association (CTPA), formed in
1968 to advise Laguna Beach City Council on the city's General Plan (Municipal general plans govern land use and physical
development of land within a political unit's sphere of influence.). Laguna Beach, a coastal city in Southern California,
hired private consultants to amend Laguna Beach's General Plan in 1967. Daniel, Mann, Johnson and Mendenhall, consultants
(DMJM), presented the city with a plan which included resort development and a freeway bisecting the city. At a public hearing,
residents rejected Laguna Beach's transformation into a major coastal resort city with a population growth projected to triple
from its size in 1967. In response, the City Council dismissed DMJM, and CTPA assumed the role of advisory committee on land
use. The committee rejected the proposed freeway and supported projects for a Festival Arts Plaza, a shoreline park and a
greenbelt buffering the city from urban development.
James W. Dilley, proprietor of a paperback bookstore and resident of Laguna Beach, sat on CTPA and initiated the subsidiary
committee, Citizens for the Greenbelt. Dilley had traveled in Europe where he learned about greenbelts and open space principles,
and he became Laguna Beach's primary activist for land preservation and Greenbelt's leader. In 1968, Citizens for the Greenbelt
circulated a petition titled "A Matter of Urgency" which opined the need for open space and immediate popular support for
the Laguna Greenbelt due to impending threats of urban commercial development.
Citizens for the Greenbelt gained nonprofit corporation status becoming Laguna Greenbelt, Inc. in 1970 . As a nonprofit corporation,
LGI could accept donations for land acquisition and act as a trust. The organization elected a Board of Trustees and established
annual meetings for general membership. At annual meetings, Dilley introduced the tradition of reading victory statements
which outlined LGI's progress towards open space goals.
The membership consisted primarily of Laguna Beach residents, but surrounding communities including Irvine, Laguna Hills and
Leisure World contributed members as LGI activities expanded and land development boomed in Orange County. LGI's budget relied
on donations, bequests and membership dues. The organization held several fund-raising events in its early years to build
land acquisition funds and public support, including art auctions in cooperation with local artists, open houses, Greenbelt
Week, Dilley Dinners, picnics and other events. In 1970, Beatrice Whittlesy, former Orange County Supervisor, bequeathed two
acres of land to LGI. Several members including Dilley and Elisabeth Heckel added LGI to their wills.
From its inception, LGI has attempted to abate land development in the defined greenbelt and thus participated in numerous
law suits as both a petitioner and as a respondent. The group appealed to municipal governments to recognize Laguna Greenbelt
within General Plans and to purchase land dedicated to open space. Both Orange County and Laguna Beach recognized the greenbelt
concept in 1971, but neither municipal government has provided unilateral support to all LGI projects. LGI did influence the
shape of Orange County's General Plan, participating in public hearings and studies for the Plan's Open Space and Conservation
Elements. LGI also initiated academic studies on the greenbelt and open space conducted at the University of California, Irvine,
and encouraged compilation of environmental impact reports prior to development.
The scope of the organization's interests extended beyond Laguna Greenbelt to include regional and state issues, including
flood control, transportation, waste disposal and coastal preservation. Regardless, LGI's focus remained in Laguna Beach and
the surrounding open space. One of LGI's first extensive projects involved 522 acres of Sycamore Hills. In 1968, the owner
of the land parcel, Great Lakes Carbon Company, proposed a housing development. Laguna Beach City Council and LGI opposed
development and a protracted battle ensued to dedicate Sycamore Hills as open space. Palos Verdes Corporation, a subsidiary
of Newport Investments, purchased the land and also proposed housing development. The City Council responded by placing a
moratorium on construction in the area. Palos Verdes Corporation filed suit against Laguna Beach, LGI et al. in 1974. In a
1978 settlement, Laguna Beach purchased Sycamore Hills, but in order to fund the acquisition the City Council sold parcels
to private developers and to the county for the San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor. James Dilley, long-time opponent
of automobiles, express highways and subsequent urban sprawl, and LGI contested the proposed Corridor from the project's inception
in 1976.
Throughout the seventies and eighties, LGI unsuccessfully fought construction of the Corridor, but it did meet many goals
to thwart development in the Greenbelt and to protect land as open space. LGI collaborated with various environmental groups
and joined coalitions such as the California Planning and Conservation League in 1985. In 1978, LGI and Friends of the Irvine
Coast worked together lobbying for an Orange County national urban park in a bill before Congress. Later national involvement
in Orange County land use brought proposals for a national athletic fitness center to Laguna Niguel in 1985. Neither project
came to fruition.
In 1985, LGI elected Elisabeth Brown, a Laguna Beach resident who holds a doctorate in biological sciences from the University
of California, Irvine, to LGI president, a position she continues to hold as of 1997. In the mid and late eighties under Brown's
leadership, LGI continued to combat land developments within Laguna Greenbelt and other projects and proposals seen as posing
a threat to the environment. Among numerous activities, it opposed an Aliso Water Management Agency proposal to receive a
waiver on EPA regulations for waste water treatment, offshore oil drilling on California coast, and a sales tax hike for transportation
improvement, and it fought various elements in San Joaquin Hills Corridor plan. LGI submitted recommendations for a park in
Sycamore Hills and continued to hold fund raisers, with its primary mission still defined as the preservation of open space.
This chronology of events relating to LGI and its activities is based on local and regional newspaper clippings within the

Collection Scope and Content Summary
Laguna Greenbelt, Incorporated (LGI) is an active non-profit organization founded in 1968 to preserve the open space bordering
the City of Laguna Beach, California and comprising Sycamore Hills and five canyons: Aliso, Wood, El Toro, Laguna and Morro.
LGI has worked both with and against local governments and private corporations in order to minimize land development of the
designated greenbelt. The records include correspondence, legal papers, organizational publications, printed items, environmental
impact reports, visual materials and minutes which document the origins and evolution of LGI in its first twenty years. The
collection chronicles activities and evolving philosophies of LGI and its members, and it illustrates aspects of Orange County
social and political history.
The first group of Laguna Greenbelt, Incorporated (LGI) records documents the origins and activities from 1956 to 1990 of
the environmental organization. Early materials (1956-1967) pertain to municipal general planning and land use and development
in Orange County, California and include reports, pamphlets, maps and Laguna Beach and Irvine General Plans. The bulk of records,
organized into ten functional series and ordered chronologically within each series, reflect LGI's first twenty years (1968-1988)
of participation in numerous environmental issues, primarily land development in the Laguna Greenbelt, and the organization's
evolving environmental philosophy.
The collection holds a wide variety of formats: correspondence, memoranda, newspaper clippings, newsletters, pamphlets and
brochures, articles, minutes, financial papers, legal papers, reports, government information, environmental impact reports,
maps, charts, and photographic prints and negatives. The majority of records are correspondence, memoranda, minutes and newspaper
clippings created or collected by the organization during the course of business. These materials chronicle LGI's origins,
membership, internal activities, positions and views. Legal papers, reports, environmental impact reports, and government
information pertain to environmental issues in Orange County and elsewhere in California. Projects involving land development
in Laguna Greenbelt from 1970 to 1985, particularly in Sycamore Hills, are well represented in the collection, and other records
document regional and state environmental issues such as the coast and waste water treatment.
The collection's arrangement reflects the documents' format, genre and function. Within the individual series, materials are
arranged chronologically. The complexity and overlap of the subjects determined this arrangement and precluded topical arrangement.
Researchers should work closely with the Chronology and the Series descriptions to navigate the collection and to locate the
available material on specific issues. For example, researchers must consult several, if not all, series to find all available
information on Sycamore Hills or coastal conservation. Dates are supplied in the container list to guide researchers, and
"n.d." is used to indicate no known date.
