DAVENPORT, Calif. (KION-TV) — A new sheriff’s office service center is coming to Davenport.
Santa Cruz County says the move is meant to meet growing public safety needs following the opening of the Cotoni Coast Dairies National Monument.
It will be located at 450 Highway 1 and staffed by a community policing deputy and qualified community volunteers.
Santa Cruz County Parks will also occupy space at the site, strengthening inter-agency collaboration and resource management along the north coast.
The lease approved Tuesday and kicks in September 25, running through September 2030.
New National Monument Cotoni Coast Dairies comes to the Central Coast
SANTA CRUZ COUNTY, Calif. (KION) — The Cotoni Coast Dairies had its grand opening in Santa Cruz County Friday.
It’s opening up new scenic hiking, biking, and recreation spaces for the community to enjoy.
The area is a portion of the California Coastal National Monument, located north of Davenport and featuring nine miles of multi-use trails.
Now accessible after nearly a decade, it was added to the National Monument by President Obama just days before the end of his second term.
The Foundation for America’s Public Lands is launching a fundraising campaign to raise $1 million to support the Cotoni-Coast Dairies.
