None.
BACKGROUND:
At one time,there was an unofficial subcommittee of the CSD that met in an advisory role on issues in Zone 57.
The residents wanted more of a say as to what was happening with the various landscape improvements and
parks within the zone. As time went by,they became know as the Zone 57 Advisory Committee (albeit an
unofficial committee).
The District III Supervisor's office wants to establish an official advisory committee,which will improve
communication between the community of Zone 57 and the Board of Supervisors for the benefit of the Zone 57
Landscape District,the Centex Development residents, and the Community of Discovery Bay.
