according to Rule 28-B from the former Spinning Wheel restaurant in Carmel to
the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Ordinance No. 102 allowed pending transfer
applications that were completed before December 31, 2002 to proceed under the
former Rule 28. In December 2001, the Board directed that any completed
transfer application must be finally decided by the Board. Public comment will be received on this item.
Action: The Board of Directors will

received on this item.

priorities. A draft, amended budget is
presented for Board consideration.
Public comment will be received on this item.
Action: The Board will hear a presentation and receive the draft Carmel
River Flow Threshold Report. The report recommends minimum
streamflows that are needed to sustain existing populations of steelhead,
California red-legged frogs and riparian habitat. The thresholds will be
used in the water supply project EIR to help assess environmental effects of
various water supply alternatives. Public comment will be taken on this
item.
Action: The
Board of Directors will receive a status report on the contract for retrofitting
the intake system at Sleepy Hollow Steelhead Rearing Facility (Facility) and
will review potential next steps regarding future operations of the
Facility. Public comment will be
received on this item.
Action: In addition to quarterly public information workshops on the ordinance process, it is proposed that a focused group be established to keep interested parties apprised of ordinance development and the environmental review process. Additionally, the Board will be asked to consider the execution of a representation agreement with one of Jones and Stokes’ sub-consultants (Ellison, Scheider and Harris). Public comment will be received on this item.
Action: The Pebble Beach Company has agreed to sell a
2.5 acre parcel along with 1.0 acre-foot of water from the Pebble Beach Company
water entitlement. The property being purchased is adjacent to PBCSD
facilities at Forest Lake and Lopez Roads in Pebble Beach. The PBCSD
plans to merge the two parcels and is asking that the area currently owned by
PBCSD that does not have water from the Pebble Beach Company entitlement be
allowed to use the water from the other property. Public comment will be
received on this item.
