Visit by County Supervisor Horne:

Through Brian Mooney, Tom Burton has been arranging for a visit by County Supervisor Horne to meet with the PMPO, probably in mid-march. Mr. Horne wants to meet with the PMPO, but not for an issue-specific meeting. We will plan to include a tour of the Observatory, water sites, antenna sites, and major residential areas.

Bruce Graves reported that Relay Engineering is continuing to pursue their tower extension proposal. They have visited the Pauma Valley Sponsor Group, who will make an official recommendation to the County. Bruce attends meetings of the Pauma Valley Sponsor Group.

Implementation of the Forest Conservation Initiative:

Jerry McLees suggested that we look into the implementation of the voter-approved Forest Conservation Initiative by the Department of Planning and Land Use. Tom Burton will look this over.
