into the Resource Conservation District (RCD) system, and agreed to take this
matter back to our respective City Councils. As you recall, we can work with
either the Palomar RCD or the Mission RCD. Both RCD's offer the same services,,
with the primary focus being resource conservation technical assistance.

occurring, act as a coordinating link among our three cities, and assist private
developers with their projects in an advisory capacity.
