Who
We Are Established in 1990
and incorporated as
a nonprofit public benefit corporation in
April, 1996, the CVPA grew out of a desire by concerned property owners
to maintain the serenity and rural beauty of the area,
especially when threatened by encroaching commercial entities.
|
|
| Unquestionably, the appeal of the area is, to
a great extent, the
flavor of the natural surroundings as exemplified by the Cummings and
Brite Valleys. Thus a strong desire to maintain that appeal was
inherent in the decision to form the association. With respect to these valleys, the Kern County General Plan is designed to preserve the rural character and farmlands, and the CVPA believes the plan is appropriate for the area and should not be changed. We support individual property rights that are lawful and consistent with the General Plan, but oppose actions that violate or attempt to amend the Plan to allow inappropriate development that would impact us all in a negative manner. |

We believe in open meetings as well as open
spaces, and everyone is
welcome to attend. We try to present meeting programs of educational
interest to area residents and publish a newsletter at least 4
times each year to keep all members abreast of our activities. A
biennial spring bus tour of the valleys has been an important
abecedarian experience for newcomers and oldtimers as well,
accentuating
the appeal we are trying to protect. The tour has become so popular it
has been necessary to schedule it the last three years in a row.
Another popular event is our annual deep pit barbeque presented
in the fall.
If you like what you see here and are of like mind regarding development, please join this Association of volunteers. We need your money (only $12 per year per family) and are always seeking willing and able hands. Our voice grows stronger with each new member. Thank you for the visit.
