Meeting Agenda

Navigating Change: County Realities and Local Opportunities 

Presenters:

Supervisor Justin Cummings will bring us up to date on two important topics that affect us all: 1) Santa Cruz County’s current budget crisis and 2) the County and its coalition partners’ efforts to prevent the Trump Administration from opening our California coast to offshore oil drilling and deep-sea mining.

Eric Gross, Superintendent/Principal at Pacific Elementary, will present a visionary proposal for reusing the cement plant in Davenport, converting the defunct industrial site into the town’s civic center, including a school, sheriff substation, fire station, post-office, community center, Davenport Resource & Service Center, and staff housing. The conversion has the potential to successfully address many of the area’s current challenges, including parking, traffic, water costs, housing, jobs, and pollution.

The presentations will be followed by a Q&A session so bring your questions and concerns to share with the speakers.
