The formal comment letter from Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy included in this correspondence was responded to as Letter No. 6 in Section III, Response to Comments, of the April 2018 Final EIR for the ArtCenter Master Plan. The primary correspondence herein is comprised of emails between John Howell and Mickey Long discussing whether there is a wildlife corridor within the Hillside Campus, as well as emails between John Howell and CDFW regarding whether there is a wildlife corridor and whether CDFW will provide a comment letter regarding the ArtCenter Project for the Planning Commission hearing on May 9, 2018.

  • Adopt-A-Beach Packet Final
    The Adopt-A-Beach Program The Adopt-A-Beach Program is a statewide educational program coordinated by the California Coastal Commission. In San Diego County, this program is locally managed by I Love A Clean San Diego (ILACSD). To “adopt” a beach, volunteers agree to clean their beach at least three times over one year (school groups need only to commit to one cleanup). This program provides a unique opportunity for volunteers of all ages to be part of the solution to marine pollution. It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3… Check out the attached list of local beaches you can adopt. ILACSD will help you determine days and times for your cleanups, provide you with supplies and help arrange for trash and recycling pick-up. Recruit friends, co-workers, classmates and rela- tives to get involved in your beach cleanup. The more people you have cleaning, the more debris you can remove from the beach, saving animals from becoming entangled or injured. Clean your beach! Wear comfortable clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty, a hat, sunscreen and closed-toe shoes. Pick up trash & recyclables (e.g. bottles, cans, clean paper). And most importantly, have fun! The Adopt-A-Beach Program By adopting a beach, you will... Reduce ocean pollution Protect marine life Have fun & make a difference Want to learn more? I Love A Clean San Diego offers free presentations to groups adopting a beach. If your group is interested in learning more about your impact on the marine environment, please contact the ILACSD Volunteer Coordinator at (619) 291-0103 ext.

Refer to www.HistoricPlacesLA.org for information on designated resources associated with this context as well as those identified through SurveyLA and other surveys. CONTRIBUTOR Daniel Prosser is a historian and preservation architect. He holds an M.Arch. from Ohio State University and a Ph.D. in history from Northwestern University. Before retiring, Prosser was the Historic Sites Architect for the Kansas State Historical Society. INTRODUCTION The “Pre-Consolidation Communities of Los Angeles” context examines those communities that were at one time independent, self-governing cities. These include (presented here as themes): Wilmington, San Pedro, Hollywood, Sawtelle, Eagle Rock, Hyde Park, Venice, Watts, Barnes City, and Tujunga. This context traces the history of each of these cities (up to the point of consolidation with the City of Los Angeles), identifying important individuals and patterns of settlement and development, and then links the events and individuals to extant historic resources (individual resources and historic districts).

    Merry Monlux From: Kyoko Tanno-Lim Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2019 5:06 PM To: Lily Mei Cc: CClerk Subject: OPPOSE Hundal Subdivision - 45089 Cougar Circle, Fremont CA Dear Mayor Mei, I am writing to OPPOSE the Hundal Subdivision located at 45089 Cougar Circle in the Vineyard Hills neighborhood of Fremont. I live in the neighborhood and sincerely appreciate Fremont’s Staff Planners for rejecting the Hundal Subdivision development. We are original owners of our home at e, Fremont and have been residents for over 30 years. We have seen many changes over those years. I understand that some change is needed, however, it is sad to see the wildlife once more prevalent and the open spaces in our neighborhood being desecrated. We hope the Fremont City Council will deny the proposed destruction of open space in this rural area near Mission Peak that serves the city and region with scenic beauty for recreation and the conservation of natural resources. Thank‐you, Kyoko Tanno‐Lim Fremont, CA. 94539 1 Merry Monlux From: Kyoko Tanno-Lim Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2019 11:31 PM To: Rick Jones - Councilmember Cc: CClerk Subject: OPPOSE Hundal Subdivision - 45089 Cougar Circle, Fremont CA Dear Mr. Jones, It was a pleasure to meet and speak with you this week. Thank you again for carving out time for us. As we discussed, I am writing to express my strong OPPOSITION to the proposed Hundal Subdivision in Vineyard Hills, adjacent to Mission Peak in Fremont. Additionally, I am opposed to subdivisions of other lots that are covered under open‐space easements.

  • San Mateo Creek Watershed Profile
    SAN MATEO CREEK WATERSHED PROFILE http://wrpinfo.scc.ca.gov/watersheds/sm/sm_profile.html Introduction The San Mateo Creek (SMC) watershed covers approximately 139 square miles of relatively undeveloped terrain. The majority of the SMC watershed's drainage area lies within western Riverside and northwestern San Diego Counties, with approximately 20% within the boundary of southeastern Orange County (Jorgensen, et al., 1971; Feldmeth, 1987). San Mateo Creek is one of the last undammed streams in southern California. The mainstem of the San Mateo Creek is over 22 miles long and has four main contributing tributaries: Cristianitos Creek, Talega Creek, Tenaja Creek, and Devil's Canyon (USFS, 1999b). Other contributing drainages within the watershed include Gabino Creek, La Paz Creek, and Cold Spring Creek (PCR et al., 2001). The SMC mainstem flows in a southwestern direction before reaching the Pacific Ocean just south of the City of San Clemente. The SMC watershed drains portions of the Santa Margarita Mountains, Sitton Peak, and the western slopes of the Elsinore Mountains. Cristianitos Creek, the main tributary, joins the mainstem approximately three miles inland from the coast and accounts for 29 square miles of the total watershed (Jorgensen, et al., 1971). The watershed contains two distinct topographical regions: the upper and the coastal. The upper region lies mostly within San Mateo Canyon Wilderness in the Cleveland National Forest. Its lower reaches run through Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base and San Onofre State Beach. The upper mountainous drainage area consists mostly of the rugged, steep sloped, Santa Ana Mountains, which are bisected by intermittent streams.

  • Easy Hikes in Southern California State Parks
    Easy Hikes in Southern California State Parks State Park visitors can discover trails and pathways through beaches, hills and deserts in southern California. It’s a great opportunity to enjoy the outdoors with friends and family and get away from city and cement. (To ensure your hike is enjoyable, it’s important to wear proper shoes, fit for hiking, wear a hat for sun protection, and bring drinking water. In summertime, an early morning start offers hikers both cooler temperatures and a better chance of seeing wildlife. For a safe and pleasant outing, be sure to check the weather forecast.) Here are some ideas for easy hike locations: LOS ANGELES AREA LEO CARRILLO STATE PARK (LOS ANGELES/VENTURA COUNTIES), 28 miles north west of Santa Monica on the Pacific Coast Highway, is a great place for a hike. Visitors should park in the parking lot and walk under the highway, and on to the sand. Continuing up the hill, visitors can stroll along the bluffs for a view of the kelp forest below, then on to the second staircase for a stroll through the sea tunnel, if the tide allows. A picnic in the cove can be a special treat. For more information, call the park at (805) 986-8591. The Trippet Ranch entrance to TOPANGA STATE PARK (LOS ANGELES COUNTY) leads to an assortment of beautiful hikes. The entrance is located off Entrada Road, off Topanga Canyon Boulevard, south from the 101 Freeway or north from the Pacific Coast Highway. Visitors can choose from a half-mile nature loop to extensive hikes all the way to Will Rogers State Historic Park (10 miles).
