The Preserve Manager – San Diego (Preserve Manager) will be responsible for managing several preserves in San Diego County that have been permanently protected for conservation purposes. That initial portfolio of Preserves – Rattlesnake Mountain (Santee), Sky Ranch (Santee), Woodridge (Lakeside), and Blossom Valley Summit (Blossom Valley) – are all owned and managed by CNLM. These Preserves include habitat types such as coastal sage scrub, southern mixed chaparral, and coast live oak woodland. The species that command the stewardship focus on these preserves include coastal California gnatcatcher, Cleveland’s goldenstar, coast live oak, and barrel cactus. Other significant species that reside within this portfolio include orange-throated whiptail, Rufous-crowned sparrow, coast horned lizard, and southern mule deer (See CNLM website for more information on these preserves). In addition to managing their own portfolio of Preserves, the Preserve Manager will—as part of the conservation teamwork with other CNLM staff on some other preserves as reasonable for best efficiency. In particular, there will be collaborative management among the team of San Diego Preserve Managers for some preserves near the City of Carlsbad.
