This area could benefit from a program of creation, restoration and enhancement by increasing cover of native wetland plant species and reducing cover of nonnative plant species. At mis time native cover is low and the plant assemblage does not represent typical riparian habitat in San Diego. Please be advised that CNLM believes improving the wetland in this area would be beneficial to the ecology of the area. We also note that per our conservation and management agreements for the project. McMillin/Brookfield reserved the right to conduct creation and enhancement in this area. As a result, we support the effort of the landowner and the City to conduct wetlands creation/restoration and enhancement in this area.
