December 2012

It was a busy and high profile year for More Mesa.  As is our custom, below are the highlights for the year 2012.

  • Development Proposal for More Mesa Note: As far as MMPC is aware, the sale of More Mesa to a Saudi developer in late 2012 seems to have marked an end to the attempts of the Hawk team to develop More Mesa.  Therefore all material related to this potential development has been removed from the MMPC web site.
  • Oak Group Exhibition
    A much heralded Oak Group exhibit was held at the Faulkner Gallery during the month of October. At the opening reception, on October 5th, almost 200 guests, both lovers of art, and lovers of More Mesa, came together to enjoy the ninety-two paintings on exhibit.  We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the artists who participated, as well as to those volunteers who helped to make the opening reception a stellar event.
  • Winter Birds
    Our winter bird visitors have arrived.  This year, we already have at least one male Northern Harrier, one female Harrier, and two juveniles as well.  And, not seen since 2007, we have an extremely visible and active Short-eared Owl!

As always … thank you all for your wonderful support, and for loving this very special place. Our warmest holiday wishes.

    In June of this year we reported that the permit submitted by developer, Jack Maxwell, to convert the “remodel” in the Hacienda Vieja project to a duplex, was approved by the Planning Commission.  This disappointing decision allowed what will be, in effect, a sixth residence in a very environmentally sensitive area.  Because MMPC believes it…
