Abstract

The golden hillsides with scattered oaks, known throughout California, are decreasing each day. Some oak woodlands are being developed into residential and commercial communities while other woodlands are being converted into intensive agriculture, such as wine grape production. This continued decrease in oak woodlands has led some lawmakers to create preservation ordinances and policies to protect the remaining oaks. In areas where there are no woodlands protection policies, are residents likely to pay for the oak woodland preservation?
