What Are the Proposed Boundaries
for the Incorporation of Carmel Valley?
The Comprehensive Fiscal Analysis (link to report on home
page) uses the area covered by the Carmel Valley Master Plan, which
was adopted by the Monterey County Board of Supervisors on December 16,
1986. The Master Plan area includes the land east of Highway One, north
from the Carmel River to Carmel Valley Road, then east to and then north
on both sides of Carmel Knolls Drive. Also included are the Rio Vista/Outlook
Drive/Canada Drive Pine Hills neighborhoods. From the western boundary
described above, the Plan area goes east to and including Los Tulares.
The north boundary is near the ridge line excepting Hidden Hills. The
south border follows the Carmel River cast from Highway One about one
mile then south .8 miles toward the ridge line then east to and including
the Robles Del Rio area.
Will Mailing Addresses
Change After Incorporation (such as Carmel 93923)?
Many have expressed concern that their home and business mailing addresses
would change if Carmel Valley were incorporated. The Post Master of Carmel
Valley, 93924, reported that incorporation would not change any post office
designations, names or zip codes. Individuals with "Carmel, 93923"
and "Carmel Valley, 93924" addresses would continue to retain
those addresses.
Why was the Carmel
Valley Master Plan Area Selected?
The Master Plan area was chosen because of its natural geographic
and socio/economic boundaries. Many years of community debate and participation
went into the determination of the Master Plan. The area has a good mix
of business and residential uses, with the community's members sharing
the same roads, shops, services, schools, police protection, fire protection
and traffic enforcement. The use of the existing Master Plan area facilitated
the CFA data collection that proved so difficult in previous incorporation
attempts.
