Preserve Calavera In the Same Battle
Hi Minette
I saw your name in the story in the NC times about the Flightline trail. We would like to work with you to try to get that whole area as open space- with legal biking trails. We submitted a nomination to the city of Carlsbad to include the county parcel as one of the parcels the city would acquire through their Open space committee. Someone thought the SDMBA might also be submitting a nomination for that parcel.
We should coordinate our efforts on this. The Open space committee will be reviewing these parcels at their meeting on friday December 1, 2006. it is very important to turn out a few bikers to speak in support of this at that meeting- and at the city council when this project moves forward.
Preserve Calavera is focussed on preserving and protecting the entire calavera area. we are the organization that did two lawsuits(we lost) against the Carlsbad Oaks North project that started the destruction of the trails in that area. We also did extensive comments on the city’s proposed trail plan for northeastern Carlsbad. We currently are working on a major acquisition on the Buena vista creek valley- the sherman property- which would keep half of the valley as open space and create wonderful opportunities for biking/hiking trails connecting to calavera, through oceanside up to the new park at el corazaon, and also along buena vista creek all the way to the lagoon.
Anyhow- we should be working together on all of these things.
I leave town in the morning for a week, but lets try to talk when I get back.
