The roots of San Carlos Green stem from the 2006 San Carlos Natural Resources Report
written by a group of dedicated and involved San Carlos Residents. The
report provides recommendations for action in three basic areas: Open
Space, Creeks and Watersheds and Resource Conservation. It is the
Resource Conservation charter that is behind the efforts of San Carlos
Green.
