The City of Carlsbad recently hosted a luncheon to show a video about the current and future state of the city, as reported in The Coast News. The video indicates that the city trimmed $9 million from the budget without adversely impacting city services.
Among innovative improvements in the works in Carlsbad is the new desalinization plant being started to supply water to the city. There are plans for solar and hydroelectric powered energy production. Residents have donated thousands of hours of volunteer time in local projects. There is a lot of cooperation and teamwork going on in Carlsbad!
