Are you part of the Porter Ranch community? About a thousand people have liked the Porter Ranch Neighborhood Council on Facebook and are part of our online community and you can too. This is an easy way to stay abreast of hyper local news and weigh in on current issues.

The PRNC has expanded its outreach beyond its fact filled website prnc.org, email blasts, and phone calls in recent months to include Facebook and Twitter. This extraordinary outreach coupled with the increasingly significant impact the Council has had in the community on land use issues, bike lanes and traffic, resulted in the Council having 22 people run for 5 seats in the recent elections. Working with Porter Ranch school principals helped reach a passionate audience of parents who also signed up to run.

The election was held on Saturday, March 1. The results are expected to be certified and new board members sworn in at the April 1 meeting. The meeting will also have as guest speaker, Ralph Combs, Manager, Corporate Development, The Termo Company. Termo is proposing to drill up to twelve new oil and gas wells as an extension of their existing operations in the Aliso Canyon Field north of Porter Ranch. He will outline their project and answer your questions. The meeting will be held on April 1, 6pm at Shepherd of the Hills Church, 19700 Rinaldi.
