1968 General Plan
I I I I I I MONTEREY COUNTY GENERAL PLAN I MONTEREY COUNTY, STATE OF CALIFORNIA I I I I ADOPTED BY THE MONTEREY COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION JULY 10, 1968 I ADOPTED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF MONTEREY COUNTY OCTOBER 22, 1968 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 0 N I I I MONTEREY COUNTY I I I I I I PREFACE I The Monterey County General Plan is an attempt to establish a county philosophy based on the values and desires of the people. This in turn becomes a valid basis for decisions by public bodies as well as private enterprise. Such a pro cedure is vitally needed in our rapidly changing environment. The General Plan I is a study of the ever changing pattern of Monterey County --a mirror in which to review the past, to comprehend the present, and to contemplate the future, This plan reflects years of research and study as well as many other reports such as I the continuing Facts and Figures, Recreation in Monterey County, Beach Acqui sition, and other plans which are shown as separate documents h~cause of the volume of material. I The size of Monterey County, its variety of climate, vegetation, and land forms make it imperative that only large land uses or broad proposals be used to portray geographically the objectives desired for the future development of the County. I Accordingly, in addition to the maps, greater emphasis in the General Plan is placed on the text which conveys in words the objectives as well as the princi ples and standards recommended to make them effective. -
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. -

Fire suppression starting in the early 20th century has led to Fire return interval altered fire regimes that affect forest composition, structure and risk of vegetation type conversion following Burn severity disturbance. Several studies have found evidence of increasingly large proportions and patches of high severity Fire size fire in fire-deprived conifer forests of northern California, but few studies have investigated the impactsoffire Natural range of variation suppression on the isolated forests of southern California. In this study, spatial data were used to compare the Yellow pine Mixed conifer current fire return interval (FRI) in yellow pine and mixed conifer forests of southern California tohistorical conditions. Remotely sensed burn severity and fire perimeter data were analyzed to assess changes inburn severity and fire size patterns over the last 32–100 years. -
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). -
