4. Resource Conservation District Letter to Update Climate Maps (20 minutes)
The council will review a draft letter from the San Mateo Resource Conservation District to the State of California requesting the state update the climate change maps used by the state for funding purposes. The request is to include Pescadero as it is currently not included on the maps.
RCD Letter of support to update climate change maps:
- The GIS data looks like the maps covering the Pescadero area are not up to date or inclusive of the needed social vulnerability portion.
- W/o accurate data, Pescadero could be missing out or not eligible to receive some of the $4B earmarked for vulnerable communities via prop 4.Â
- Barb Kipreos (Engagement Officer from the San Mateo Resource Conservation District) shared screen shots of examples of the GIS mapping not intuitively showing Pescadero changing in he mapping over time like other Bay Area communities.
- Augustine read the draft letter out loud.
- Council discussed the letter structure and if changes need to be made.
- Puente, Arriba Southcoast and RCD have used this same letter with minor adjustments.
- Public Comment: Irma Rodriguez Mitton Founder / Executive Director of Arriba Southcoast expressed support to send this letter as is.
- Motion to send the letter as is made by Erridge – seconded by Talbot
- Approved by Augustine, Rose, Talbot, and Erridge – Skinner abstained – Motion passed.
