Forester Ross Richards contracted with BVRI to do an assessment of the common areas in the New Subdivision. He noted basal area coverage, fuel loading, and relative severity of fire danger. He assigned a priority rating of High, Moderate, Low, or None to each common area, and made a recommendation for treatment on each.
BVRI, in cooperation with Richards and Supervisor Woodrow, is seeking grant funds for managing the common areas.
The following is the report submitted by Richards to the BVRI Board.
BVRI Common Area Inventory – Fall 2014
The report is very detailed.
The Board of Supervisors voted to approve the amended Environmental Impact Report. And the appeal of the Forest Service’s Environmental Assessment was withdrawn. The enabling documents for the Bear Valley Village Partners to proceed with their development plans are now in place.

EIR Volume 1, details all project-related environmental concerns and their significance, while EIR Volume 2 contains all public comments and recommendations for mitigation.
