Neverland Ranch as a state park? Officials call it a fairy tale
Smiling docents, green-clad rangers, music piped in everywhere — for Michael Jackson fans, Neverland State Park would no doubt be a thriller. But state park officials say it’s an idea whose time may never come.
Assemblyman Mike Davis, a Los Angeles Democrat, said Tuesday that he’s going to push for a study of the possibility when the Legislature meets again in August.
Jackson “was one of the world’s preeminent entertainers and California is fortunate to have such a site in its jurisdiction,” said Davis, chairman of the Assembly Committee on Arts, Entertainment, Sports, Tourism & Internet Media. “It will absolutely be a destination for many who admire music and the performing arts.”
