City Council Meeting on Tuesday
— by Jeffrey Wisniewski — 7 February 2010 — No comments yet »
The City Council will adopt the Refugio Creek Watershed Vision Plan as guiding policy for future improvements in the watershed at its next meeting on Tuesday — 7pm at City Hall. The staff report states that “over 50 people, including representatives from other agencies, stakeholders, residents, and the general public participated in the workshops.” However, that is the aggregate of those that showed up to at least one meeting and/or placed their name on the email list. The true “working group” during the meetings was between 8 and 12 (not including City staff and consultants).
The City will also submit Hercules Bayfront to be one of six state-wide “catalyst projects” for the California Sustainable Strategies Pilot Program. Apparently, “such [a] designation will enable Hercules to be eligible for a variety of resources and technical assistance, including access to specified State funding resources and priority or bonus points for specified State funds.”
The complete agenda is available on the City’s website.
