The district was entrusted to acquire lands for the express purpose of preserving open space and providing passive public access . Since then, the district has successfully protected ap- proximately 12,500 acres of open space while maintaining balanced budgets and minimal overhead . More recently, the district acquired the old Fish Ranch, also known as Palo Corona Ranch, in 2004 . That same year the voters of the district approved a ballot measure creating the Parks, Open Space and Coastal Preservation Benefit Assessment District. The ballot measure assesses each property owner within the district approximately $20 per year to provide additional funding for the district to continue preserving and protecting parks and open space . This annual assessment, which raises approximately $1,000,000 per year, ends in 2019 . The district’s current boundaries cover over 500 square miles and include the seven incorporated cities on the Monterey Peninsula, Carmel Valley, Pebble Beach and the Big Sur Coast . The District is governed by an elected Board of Directors, representing the citizens in each of five wards.

Using shared funding from the 1990 State Proposition 117 Habitat Conservation Fund, and other statewide park bond funds, they have acquired two significant coastal properties south of Carmel. CSP acquired the 1300 acre Point Lobos Ranch east of Point Lobos State Reserve and MPRPD purchased the adjacent 4300 acres of Fish Ranch (Palo Corona Ranch) . In 2005 the northern 600-acres of the new Palo Corona Regional Park were opened for limited public pe- destrian use . The limitation on access is a result of only one public entry point directly into the park from State Route 1 just south of the Carmel River Bridge (the Fish Barn entrance) and no established parking other than along the highway . Meanwhile the district has commissioned many studies on all the natural features and resources of the entire 4300-acre park for use in a soon to be drafted General Development Plan for the long term access, use, and management of the park . Since opened, the district has received a steady stream of positive comments on the great trail system and spectacular views had from the 600-acres currently accessible by permit only . At the same time, the district has also received a growing increase in demand for more access; confirming the need to establish expanded parking and accessibility. To help resolve the issues limiting public access to the park, the district approached the Whisler Wilson family with an offer to purchase their 317-acre Ranch (WWR), east of Carmel River State Beach at San Jose Creek Road (at Monastery Beach) . This property was a high priority for conservation acquisition by both the MPRPD and the CSP because of its location, natural resources and ideal accessibility to Point Lobos Ranch and Palo Corona Regional Park lands . In 2012 the district purchased WWR with Coastal Conservancy and Habitat Conservation Fund grant funds for $4,000,000 . The California Coastal Conservancy’s $1 million grant included a condition to ensure that the investment would align with their mission to preserve, protect and restore resources along the California Coast and provide opportunity for increased public access and camping . This feasibility study has been commis- sioned by the district to meet this grant funding condition by assessing the potential of this property to provide affordable overnight camping to meet the growing demand along the coast, and specifically in the Monterey area. This document is a summary of the findings and provides site assessment and planning, environmental assessment, and market and economic analysis for limited campground facilities at the WWR property . Site Context: Location and Usage The WWR site is located in an established recreation destination region including the Monterey Peninsula and Big Sur areas . Existing concentrations of day use and camping facilities are found throughout the re- gion . As a result the site may attract recreation users from local communities as well as from non-resident travelers visiting the region and recreating on public lands. While access to the site is near the Pacific Coast, it is not an ocean side area . Thus it will not likely attract casual pass-through visitors unless they seek an upland recreation area or camping alternative to hotel accommodations . Access The site offers access from a primary travel and recreation corridor, Highway 1 . Access into the site, as with most recreation sites, will be limited by parking availability and any identified limitations regarding the access road into the property . Access from State Route 1 (SR1) along San Jose Creek Canyon Road (Road) into the WWR property is through CSP’s Point Lobos Ranch property . This study cannot predict what level of use or development CSP will eventually permit in and on its Point Lobos Ranch property . Therefore, the findings and conclusions are based on development levels on Point Lobos Ranch neces- sary to support what is feasible on the WWR property . | 5 Site features WWR is a 317-acre property that was originally owned by the Whisler - Wilson family . It is located a little more than six miles from downtown Monterey . It is east of Highway 1 at Monastery Beach (Carmel River State Beach), which is popular with scuba divers and beach goers . It shares its southern and western boundaries with California State Parks’ Point Lobos Ranch and its northern and eastern boundaries with the district’s 4300-acres Palo Corona Regional Park . The WWR Property is adjacent to, visible from, and provides connectivity to both of these parks . The higher elevations offer breathtaking views of Point Lobos State Reserve, Carmel River State Beach, Jacks Peak County Park, the Santa Cruz, Gabilan and Santa Lucia Mountains, Palo Corona Regional Park, and Garland Ranch Regional Park in Carmel Valley . In addi- tion to the public open space, the property provides a potentially ideal opportunity for establishing the much needed and sough-after expanded public parking and accessibility demanded by the public . 2 Physical Analysis Existing Conditions • Off Site Assessment • Highway 1 Access and Enhancements • Entry Road • Parking • On Site Assessment • Topography • Soils • Hydrology/Stream Zones • Vegetation Planning Considerations • Developable Land Mapping | 7 Existing Conditions Point Lobos Ranch State Park Existing Day-use Entrance Palo Corona Regional Park US Highway 1 Midden Field Tight Curve Proposed Parking Lot CPS Residences

  • S Best Beaches South of San Francisco
    California’s Best Beaches South of San Francisco Author’s Note: This article “California’s Best Beaches South of San Francisco” is one of 30 chapters in my book/ebook Northern California Travel: The Best Options. That book is available in English as a book/ebook and also as an ebook in Chinese. Several of my books on California can be seen on myAmazon Author Page. See also my companion article “California’s Best Beaches North of San Francisco.” By Lee Foster If headed south from San Francisco on CA Highway 1, which are the loveliest beaches at which to linger? Here are my suggestions: Montara Beach, 10 miles south Montara Beach offers a classic beach experience and is my favorite in this region. You park on a bluff overlooking the south end of the beach. Stretching in front of you are a couple miles of sand, going north. The lookout is inviting. The beach is wide and welcoming. The surf is crashing. In the hours before sunset a golden glow from the west settles on the beach and cliffs behind it. Gingerly descend the stairs to the beach. The stairs get wiped out from time to time by storms. But then they get rebuilt. Walk north along the beach. Admire the thunderous surf. Gulp in the fresh air. Accept the glow of the sun from the west. Indulge in a near-wilderness experience, yet very close to San Francisco. A very few other people will be frolicking on the beach, perhaps with their dogs fetching sticks in the surf.

  • Discover California State Parks in the Monterey Area
    Crashing waves, redwoods and historic sites Discover California State Parks in the Monterey Area Some of the most beautiful sights in California can be found in Monterey area California State Parks. Rocky cliffs, crashing waves, redwood trees, and historic sites are within an easy drive of each other. "When you look at the diversity of state parks within the Monterey District area, you begin to realize that there is something for everyone - recreational activities, scenic beauty, natural and cultural history sites, and educational programs,” said Dave Schaechtele, State Parks Monterey District Public Information Officer. “There are great places to have fun with families and friends, and peaceful and inspirational settings that are sure to bring out the poet, writer, photographer, or artist in you. Some people return to their favorite state parks, year-after-year, while others venture out and discover some new and wonderful places that are then added to their 'favorites' list." State Parks in the area include: Limekiln State Park, 54 miles south of Carmel off Highway One and two miles south of the town of Lucia, features vistas of the Big Sur coast, redwoods, and the remains of historic limekilns. The Rockland Lime and Lumber Company built these rock and steel furnaces in 1887 to cook the limestone mined from the canyon walls. The 711-acre park allows visitors an opportunity to enjoy the atmosphere of Big Sur’s southern coast. The park has the only safe access to the shoreline along this section of cast. For reservations at the park’s 36 campsites, call ReserveAmerica at (800) 444- PARK (7275).

  • Pitch Canker Kills Pines, Spreads to New Species and Regions
    Pitch canker kills pines, Page 1 of 8 Return to Previous Page Pitch canker kills pines, spreads to new species and regions Andrew J. Storer o Thomas R. Gordon o Paul L. Dallara o David L. Wood California Agriculture, Vol. 48, No. 6, pages 9-13 The host and geographic range of the pitch canker pathogen has greatly increased since it was first discovered in California in 1986. Most significantly, it now affects many pine species, including native stands of Monterey pine, and has made a transgeneric jump to Douglas fir. Isolated occurrences of the disease have been found as far north as Mendocino County. Insects are strongly implicated as vectors of the pathogen, and long term management appears to be dependent on the development of resistant tree varieties. In infested regions, the planting of Monterey pine and other pine tree species should be undertaken with caution. Pitch canker disease was first identified in California at New Brighton State Beach, Santa Cruz County, in 1986. By the beginning of 1992, it was recorded as far north as San Francisco and as far south as San Diego County. Most records were from Monterey pine, but occasional infections of bishop, Coulter, Italian stone, Aleppo, ponderosa and Canary Island pine were reported. The most extensive infestations were in Santa Cruz and southern Alameda counties. In Southern California, with the exception of an isolated infestation in Santa Barbara County, only Monterey pine Christmas tree plantations were affected. Pitch canker disease, caused by the fungus Fusarium subglutinans f. sp. pini, is characterized by a resinous exudation on the surface of Trees with advanced pich canker symptoms have significant crown shoots, branches, exposed roots and boles of dieback due to the large number of infested trees.
