  • Panoche Valley
    THE Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society Established 1926 AVOCET The Newsletter of the Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society September-October 2017 Panoche Valley: Saving an Important Bird Area (IBA) by Shani Kleinhaus, Environmental Advocate oncluding almost eight years of advocacy and litiga- tion, SCVAS, Sierra Club Loma Prieta Chapter, and Defenders of Wildlife have signed a settlement agree- Cment that allows a photovoltaic solar farm to be built on about 1,000 acres of Panoche Valley floor, while at the same time preserving 26,000 acres, including 4,000 acres of valley floor grasslands, as habitat for endangered species. Califor- nia Department of Fish and Wildlife and Con Edison have also signed the agreement. We are proud of this achievement! Monterey Audubon Society first alerted SCVAS to the plans to construct a solar farm in Panoche Valley. In 2009, plans for solar arrays and supportive infrastructure encompassed most of the valley floor, as well as Little Panoche Valley. No mitigation was offered for the inevitable loss of habitat for the many endangered species that call the valley home, so we started mobilizing. In early 2010 we organized a work- shop that formed an alliance of farmers and environmental organizations in opposition to the project. This alliance has never faltered. In the years that followed, our advocacy and permit require- ments by state and federal wildlife agencies resulted in changing project ownership as investors came and went. The project footprint shrunk and mitigation lands were added. San Benito County produced additional environmental re- view documents, asserting repeatedly that the construction of a solar project on thousands of acres of valley floor could Ferruginous Hawk by Debra Shearwater cont’d on page 4 Wednesday, September 20, 2017 Cuba - The Isle of Endemics: Birds and Bats! with Dave Johnston Wednesday, October 18, 2017 Understanding California's Whales with Ted Cheeseman The Avocet 1 Please carpool if possible; bring binoculars, field guides, layered September-October Field Trips clothing.

  • Annex 18 Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department
    Santa Clara County Community Wildfire Protection Plan Annex 18 – County of Santa Clara Parks and Recreation Department ANNEX 18. COUNTY OF SANTA CLARA PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT Prepared by: Flint Glines, Seth Hiatt, Don Rocha, John Patterson, and Barry Hill Santa Clara County acquired its first parkland in 1924, purchasing 400 acres near Cupertino, which became Stevens Creek County Park. In 1956, the Department of Parks and Recreation was formed. Currently, the regional parks system has expanded to 29 parks encompassing nearly 48,000 acres. Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department (County Parks) provides a sustainable system of diverse regional parks, trails, and natural areas that connects people with the natural environment, and supports healthy lifestyles, while balancing recreation opportunities with the protection of natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources (https://www.sccgov.org/sites/parks/AboutUs/Pages/About-the-County-Regional-Parks.aspx). County Parks are regional parks located close to home, yet away from the pressures of the valley’s urban lifestyle. The parks offer opportunities for recreation in a natural environment to all County residents. Regional parks are larger in size, usually more than 200 acres, than local neighborhood or community parks. Many of the County’s regional parks also feature points of local historic interest. County park locations are shown in Figure 18.1.

  • Almaden Lake Park Monday Opening
    BUDGET DOCUMENT# :L ~ CTTYOF ~ SAN JOSE Memorandum CAI'rli\L OJ' SILICON VALLEY TO: MAYOR LICCARDO FROM: Councilmember Johnny Khamis SUBJECT: B DATE: May 20, 2015 Approved Date 05/20/15 RECOMMEND A Direct the City Manager to fund the hiring of 1.00 FTE Park Maintenance Assistant FT in order to • open Almaden Lake Park on Mondays. Proposal Program/Project Title: Almaden Lake Park - Monday Opening Amount of City Fw1ding Required: $60,327 Fund Type (i.e. General Fund, C&C funds, etc.): General Fund This change is: One-time _ X_ Ongoing Proposal Description, including anticipated outcomes (describe how change would affect services for San Jose residents, businesses, cmmnunity groups, etc.): The proposed Monday opening of Almaden Lake Park, a regional park located in District 10, would improve the quality of life for the many residents throughout San Jose who use the park on a regular basis. Opening the park on Mondays would provide additional recreation for residents who use the bocce ball courts, the playgrounds, and for the munerous people who walk and jog around the lake. In addition, the Lake Almaden Trail is the connecting trail between the Los Alamitos Creek Trail and the Guadalupe River Trail. When the park is closed, the trail is closed. That means residents who use those trai ls to commute or recreate cannot do so on Mondays. The costs of this proposal will be partially offset by potential facilities rentals, as well as additional parking lot revenue generated. Revenue from the parking lot at Almaden Lake Park is recorded in the City's General Ftmd.
