OTHER BOARD MATTERS:
6300.000 2. Board comments and referrals: After the Board's discussion on 3/28/00 regarding the proposed Ordinance on Carmel Valley growth limitations, Supervisor Pennycook stated she became aware that Rancho San Carlos was exempt under the Consensus Ordinance, but not under the Board's current policy which was reaffirmed. Upon the request of Supervisor Pennycook, the Board referred this matter to the County Administrative Officer to bring back the policy, including the exemption provided in the Consensus Ordinance. Upon the request of Supervisor Pennycook, the Board referred a packet of information to the County Administrative Officer on the "Monterey County America Reads" Program, and requested that the County workforce be made aware of how individuals can become a volunteer working with the Vista group to assist with this program. Supervisor Pennycook presents a letter to Lew Bauman, Public Works Director, from Carl Chase, commending the North County Road Maintenance Crew for the excellent job they have done this past year this past winter in keeping potholes filled in a timely manner and maintaining drainage ditches. Supervisor Johnsen, as a member of the CSAC Housing, Land Use and Transportation Committee, stated she received an alert on the Hertzberg Commission Report regarding local governance for the 21st Century. She stated that CSAC is seeking input from the counties, and she feels Monterey County needs to coordinate this as a governance activity. One of the issues is that there is LAFCO authority over city development or expansions through spheres of influence annexations, and there is a lack of discretion by LAFCO's over county development. This matter is referred to the Legislative Coordinator for her information.
