Default Ocotillo Wells State Vehicular Recreation Area

Many of us enjoy Ocotillo Wells State Vehicular Recreation Area (SVRA).

You can have a voice in future plans by attending upcomming workshops

Ocotillo Wells North Public Workshops
to be Held March 10th and 19th!

California State Parks will conduct two public workshops focusing on the Ocotillo Wells North area as part of the comprehensive public involvement program for the Ocotillo Wells SVRA General Plan and EIR. The purpose of the workshops is to collect broad input on issues and ideas associated with long-range planning for this portion of the SVRA. The format of both workshops will be identical.

The first workshop will be held on Thursday, March 10, 2011 from 7 p.m. to
9 p.m. at the Carlsbad Senior Center (799 Pine Ave, Carlsbad, CA 92008). For directions visit Google Maps.

The second workshop is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, March 19, 2011 from 10 a.m. to noon in the vicinity of Ocotillo Wells North. The specific location will be announced soon.

If you plan on attending, an RSVP is appreciated but not required.

Would you help our planning efforts by completing a short online questionnaire by March 31?

Whether or not you attend a workshop, you can help us identify key planning issues for OW North by completing the online questionnaire. Your input will help guide early project research!

About Ocotillo Wells North

Ocotillo Wells North was added to Ocotillo Wells SVRA after the Freeman property (also known as Truckhaven/Desert Cahuilla) was acquired by California State Parks in 2006. Senator Denise Ducheny and Senator Dennis Hollingsworth recently convened a group of stakeholders to establish a plan for dividing the Freeman Property between Anza Borrego Desert State Park and Ocotillo Wells State Vehicular Recreation Area (SVRA).

Following the stakeholder group meetings, the plan was finalized under Senate Bill 855. This legislation specifies that the northwestern portion of the property be annexed to Anza Borrego Desert State Park and the southeastern portion of the property be annexed to Ocotillo Wells SVRA. This map depicts the annexations.
