Pala Buys Part of Gregory Canyon
The San Diego Union Tribune reported yesterday that the Pala Band purchased part of Gregory Canyon effectively ending the 25 year fight over the landfill. Purchase Price: $13 million. There will probably be no Christmas bonus this year for Pala members but hey, you got some sacred land back.
