Article abstract: Within the reporting period (July 15, 1997 - December 31, 1998) 14,130 acres of habitat were conserved compared to a loss of 243 acres of habitat. Consistent with the design goals of the program, virtually all of the conserved habitat is located within the City?s Multiple Habitat Planning Area (MHPA) while most habitat loss occurred outside the MHPA. Acres lost represents the acreage impacted by development projects occurring within the reporting period. Acres conserved include lands conserved through mitigation for project -level impacts, lands conserved through exactions of private property during development entitlement process, acquired with public funds, or existing public lands dedicated as part of the City?s commitments under the MSCP.
