Orangecrest residents object to DHL proposal

ORANGECREST: They put up with military planes now. Project plans include 11 night flights.

RIVERSIDE - Single mom Vickie Carney bought her house in Orangecrest three years ago believing it would be an investment toward her retirement.

Carney said Monday that her property's value has increased, but she is worried that future commercial air traffic from the March Inland Port airport could have negative effects on her quality of life and her property values.

"It's not fair," Carney said.

Dozens of homeowners in Orangecrest, the fastest-growing area of Riverside, say they were not informed about future commercial flights and real estate agents had downplayed the military flight activity at March. The residents have been vocal in their concerns, showing up at community meetings and public hearings for a commercial air-cargo port.

Gerald Smith said homeowners as early 2000 were asking March commissioners to make sure that there was some disclosure of their plans for commercial development.
