INTRODUCTION 1.1 OVERVIEW The plan contained in these pages is the Land Use Plan for the Big Sur Coast segment of Monterey County's Local Coastal Program. This plan supersedes the Monterey County Coast Master Plan adopted in 1962 and in effect for twenty two years. As the primary component of a certified Local Coastal Program, it will provide development standards to guide the actions of all State and local agencies. Under the provisions of the Federal Coastal Zone Management Act, actions by all federal agencies must be submitted for review by the California Coastal Commission. The Coastal Commission will rely on the certified Big Sur Coast Land Use Plan for guidance when reviewing federal projects for consistency with the policies of the California Coastal Management Program. This plan has been prepared to carry out the requirements of the California Coastal Act of 1976. The Coastal Act places emphasis on environmental protection and public recreation and access. Therefore, these were three important considerations used to formulate this plan. 1.2 PHYSICAL AND CULTURAL SETTING The Big Sur coast of Central California is over seventy miles in length and stretches from the Carmel area on the north, south to the San Luis Obispo County line near San Simeon. Perhaps the largest single coastal planning area in California, the Big Sur region is also among the most geographically distinctive. The western slopes of the Santa Lucia Mountains, reaching an elevation of 5,200 feet at Cone Peak, drop precipitously to the sea. Much of the coast is bounded by sheer cliffs. Great offshore rocks punctuate the dramatic meeting of land and sea. Beaches are few; strong currents, waves, and cold water make swimming hazardous. Nearly fifty separate streams flow down the mountains to join the sea. Several of these, such as the Big Sur and Little Sur Rivers, Big Creek, Garrapata Creek, and Salmon Creek, have substantial year-round flows and support anadromous and resident game fish. The Big Sur coast is rich in plant and wildlife diversity. Coast redwoods are found in the cool, moist canyons. The Santa Lucia fir and many other rare plants are present. Mountain lion, an occasional black bear, deer, and many smaller terrestrial animals and birds make Big Sur their home. While the California sea otter refuge runs the length of the coast, the otter is only a small part of the diverse spectrum of marine wildlife. The climate in Big Sur is mild. Although the winters bring some of the heaviest rainfall in California, the summers are long and dry. Coastal fog is typical in summer mornings near the shore; inland and at the 5 higher elevations temperatures can get quite high. Fire danger is ever present in summer and can be extremely hazardous for residents. The rugged mountainous terrain of the Big Sur coast has had a profound effect on historical use of the area and will continue to serve as a limitation on the kinds of activities that can be carried on and the scale of development. Natural constraints to development include availability of water, difficult access, unstable soils on steep slopes, and dangers of fire and flood. The scenic qualities and the natural grandeur of the coast which result from the imposing geography, the rich vegetative compositions, and the dramatic meeting of land and sea are the area's greatest single attraction to the public. Big Sur has attained a worldwide reputation for spectacular beauty; sightseeing and scenic driving are the major recreational activities. Although it has remained a rural area where sturdy pioneering

  • Big Sur for Other Uses, See Big Sur (Disambiguation)
    www.caseylucius.com [email protected] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Big Sur For other uses, see Big Sur (disambiguation). Big Sur is a lightly populated region of the Central Coast of California where the Santa Lucia Mountains rise abruptly from the Pacific Ocean. Although it has no specific boundaries, many definitions of the area include the 90 miles (140 km) of coastline from the Carmel River in Monterey County south to the San Carpoforo Creek in San Luis Obispo County,[1][2] and extend about 20 miles (30 km) inland to the eastern foothills of the Santa Lucias. Other sources limit the eastern border to the coastal flanks of these mountains, only 3 to 12 miles (5 to 19 km) inland. Another practical definition of the region is the segment of California State Route 1 from Carmel south to San Simeon. The northern end of Big Sur is about 120 miles (190 km) south of San Francisco, and the southern end is approximately 245 miles (394 km) northwest of Los Angeles. The name "Big Sur" is derived from the original Spanish-language "el sur grande", meaning "the big south", or from "el país grande del sur", "the big country of the south". This name refers to its location south of the city of Monterey.[3] The terrain offers stunning views, making Big Sur a popular tourist destination. Big Sur's Cone Peak is the highest coastal mountain in the contiguous 48 states, ascending nearly a mile (5,155 feet/1571 m) above sea level, only 3 miles (5 km) from the ocean.[4] The name Big Sur can also specifically refer to any of the small settlements in the region, including Posts, Lucia and Gorda; mail sent to most areas within the region must be addressed "Big Sur".[5] It also holds thousands of marathons each year.

This supplement did not involve the editorial staff of the Los Angeles Times and the Southern California Newspaper Group. Printed with recycled paper. WELCOME TO MOBILITY 2018 The Price for a Civilized Society really don’t enjoy paying taxes. When I go out to dinner with friends and the bill comes, you can count on me to jokingly ask, “Who I ordered the tax!” Why do we pay taxes? First, some history. The word tax comes from the Latin word taxare, but the Romans were not the first or only civilization to impose taxes on their people. The ancient Greeks and Egyptians levied taxes on their own citizens and foreigners, and so did the Hebrews. So why do we pay taxes? We pay taxes because that is the price we pay to have a civilized society. A civilized society requires a well-funded government to provide essential community and public services including police and fire, parks, libraries, clean water, roads, highways and public transportation, to name a few. Taxes can be classified into two categories, regressive and progressive. If taxes negatively affect the poor they are considered regressive; The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority (Metro) continues to extend light rail lines if they negatively affect the rich more than they throughout the county from the San Fernando Valley to the East San Gabriel Valley to Santa Monica negatively affect the poor they are considered and Long Beach.

  • 3.1.1 Introduction This Section Describes the Aesthetic and Visual
    Paraiso Springs Resort Draft Environmental Impact Report 3.1 Aesthetics and Visual Resources 3.1 AESTHETICS AND VISUAL RESOURCES 3.1.1 Introduction This section describes the aesthetic and visual resource conditions at the project site and in the project vicinity; presents the regulatory framework applicable to the proposed project; and discusses the potential aesthetic impacts that could result from implementation of the proposed project. The primary aesthetic concerns associated with the proposed project are potential changes in aesthetic character of the project site; impacts to public viewsheds; and/or obstruction of existing views. The project-specific information and analysis within this section is primarily based on project plans and site reconnaissance and photo documentation of the project site performed by RBF Consulting during the spring of 2007, and a subsequent site visit and documentation by EMC Planning Group in the fall of 2012. 3.1.2 Environmental Setting Local Visual Resources The project site consists of about 235 acres nestled in the mouth of a canyon extending westward into the foothills located at the western terminus of Paraiso Springs Road on the eastern slope of the Sierra de Salinas Foothills in the Salinas Valley, approximately seven miles west of the City of Greenfield. Elevations at the project site range from approximately 1,000 feet in the southern portion of the project site to slightly over 2,400 feet along the ridgelines. Views from the project site consist of scenic ridgelines north, west, and south, and the expansive Salinas Valley to the east. Surrounding land uses currently consist of agricultural uses and grazing, as well as several single-family residences located along Paraiso Springs Road located east of the project site.
