Summary: Thursday, March 20, 2014 What are you doing on Sunday, March 23rd? If you are a resident of Carmel Valley think about attending the Annual Meeting of the Carmel Valley Association, or CVA. The meeting will be held from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. at the Library in Del Mesa Carmel. The CVA identifies the main topic of the meeting as “the burning issue of the day,” namely, “water.” An informative panel is going to explore water issues, with a particular focus, of course, on Carmel Valley. Here is what you’d be missing if you didn’t show up: Karin Strasser Kauffman, a CVA board member and a former member of the Monterey County Board of Supervisors, will tell attendees why the Peninsula is better positioned now for the drought than it formerly was. Lorin Letendre, President of the Carmel River Watershed Conservancy, will talk about restoration, habitat, and plans for the Carmel River Heritage Corridor. Kristi Markey, Director of the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District, will talk about future water supply options. The CVA is the oldest, largest, and perhaps most successful community organization in Monterey County. Now, this is a self-assessment, but there is some truth to the claim. The CVA mission is to defend the beauty, resources and rural character of Carmel Valley. The meeting on Sunday is free, and you are definitely invited! There is more information at kusp.org/landuse.
