DRAFT Trails Community Plan Amendments

Draft Community Plan Amendments are available for review and comment. The CPAs constitute amendments to various land use plans to revise the planned trail system in five northern communities. The areas affected are generally described as follows: the southern portion of Carmel Valley; much of Del Mar Mesa; the southeastern portion of Pacific Highlands Ranch; the southwestern portion of Rancho Penasquitos and the southern portion of Torrey Highlands.

The purpose of the amendments is to incorporate a trail system developed as part of the Carmel Mountain/Del Mar Mesa Preserves Resource Management Plan (RMP), including establishing linkages to areas adjacent to the Preserves. Alignments within the revised trail system generally follow existing paths and access roads.
