The Committee would report monthly to the Conncil on its progress. The goal of the Committee is to provide a report on the sta- tus of agriculture in Carlsbad. This report would also include recommended agricultural policies and goals. The report would form the basis for a Agricultural Element to the General Plan. At the first meeting which will be in January the Committee will schedule a regular meeting time, will establish tasks and a timetable for completion, and will begin to review and to comment upon the agricultural recommendations of the Local Coastal Program.
