A public meeting will be held next week to get feedback and ideas for improving visitor amenities and public access on the north Santa Cruz County coastline.Â
The county is working with state and federal agencies to manage an increase in visitors to the north county coast — between the city of Santa Cruz and the San Mateo County line — by creating more infrastructure, improving public safety and managing visitors’ impact.Â
The agencies include the county Parks Department, the federal Bureau of Land Management, Caltrans, and the California Department of Parks and Recreation. They will consult with each other and stakeholders, including the public, to create a North Coast Facilities Management Plan.Â
A draft map of project proposals and a survey can be viewed at tinyurl.com/287rr9y4.Â
Some of the projects being considered are restrooms and parking at Shark Fin Cove, overnight accommodations at Greyhound Rock County Park and various trail upgrades.
The meeting from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Nov. 30 will be held in-person at Pacific Elementary School’s Multipurpose Room at 50 Ocean St. in Davenport, and via Zoom. A Zoom link will be provided by registering at tinyurl.com/466z7mus.Â
The meeting will help guide which coastal projects are incorporated into the plan, that aims to provide more access to the area while also protecting natural resources, county officials said.
