The Agenda coment link for this item doesnt seem to be working?
Okay, let me check on that and see if they sent me the wrong link.
Robert, it worked for me, BUT, they said it is no 10 on the agenda and I don’t see it there. Nor do I see a link to leave a comment for that item.
They are confused, San Carpoforo Beach is down by San Simeon in SLO County, not Monterey County!
I too, was confused about the item missing from the Agenda. I did some clicking around and finally found it!
Here's how:
When you click the link, scroll down until you see three tabs: Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Click on the "Thursday March 14th, 9:00am" Tab, which will bring you to the correct Agenda. You can then scroll down to Item #10 and click the link to submit your public comment.
Thank you for this valuable piece of info
