LWVMP Study and Issues for Emphasis
The attendees at our May 13, 2009, Annual Meeting chose the following study and priorities for Education and Action, the issues on which we will focus our efforts in the coming year:
Study
Criteria for Community Incorporation
While the study will look at incorporation issues in general, the study positions would be most useful for evaluating the incorporation of Carmel Valley as a city. Keeping that in mind, the study committee would meet during the summer and present a program and consensus questions in September. If the date for a vote on incor-poration is changed from November 2009, the study could be delayed to a later time.
Advocacy & Education Issues for Emphasis
Water
This issue continues from 2008/2009. Decisions about water will remain in the forefront of the local area’s agenda. The League will follow all these activities and expects to offer guidance as appropriate.
Election Integrity
This issue continues from the previous LWVMP local program. Our local League will address whether the current electronic voting equipment and processes used in Monterey County fulfill this principle: all citizens to have the opportunity to vote and to have their votes fully and accurately counted.
