Agenda Item No. 1 - Resolution Supporting the Santa Clara Valley Water District's Clean Safe Creeks and Natural Flood Protection Measure on the November 7 2000 Ballot - (Report R-00-110). C. Britton noted an addition to the resolution. Rick Callender, 484 Capitol Village Circle, San Jose, Santa Clara Valley Water District Committee for Clean Safe Creeks, was present to answer questions. He said the program is designed to protect the valley from flooding; however, flood protection projects are designed environmentally. He said the direction taken by the water district board of directors is to build environmentally sound projects whenever possible. He said the Sierra Club had not yet endorsed the program but they expect them to. The League of Conservation Voters and the Audubon Society have endorsed the project. Regarding the additional paragraph, he said he believed it reflected the thoughts of the directors and the mission of water district. Motion: D. Little moved that the Board adopt Resolution No. 00-50 Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District Supporting the Clean, Safe Creeks and Natural Flood Protection Measure on the November 7, 2000 Ballot. P. Siemens seconded the motion. The motion passed 5 to 0. B. Agenda Item No. 2 - Authorization to Enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with California Department of Fish and Game for a Wild Pip, Control Program in the South Skyline Area and Authorization to Hire a Consultant to Implement the Program, Determine that the Recommended Actions are Exempt from the California Environmental Quality ( 4 Z p uali Act CE A as set out in the Report: Authorize the General Manager to Sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) by and between California Department of Fish and Game and the District for a Wild Pig Control Program on District Lands in the South Skyline Area, Authorize the General Manager to Execute a Contract with a Consultant to Implement a Trial Three-Year Wild Pigs Control Program in the South Skyline Area With a Budget Not to Exceed $15,000 in Fiscal Year 2000-2001 - (Report R-00-102). Meeting 00-22 Page 3 C. Britton referred to letters received from a neighbor, a District volunteer and a letter from a Boy Scout in the FYIs. N. Hanko said she had a communication from Brian Brandenberg, the manager of Jikoji, supporting the program. J. Isaacs presented the staff report and stressed that this is a trial program with no guarantees. They don't know how many pigs there are. Because there are no biological studies, they don't know the biological impacts for sure. They do know they have a major aesthetic effect and the watershed is decreased. She said staff will continue to monitor and map the areas affected by pigs. C. Britton added that even though it is a three-year program, it could be canceled by the District. The matter will come back to the Board before the second and third years are approved. J. Isaacs said State Parks is conducting a pig control program at Castle Rock. B. Crowder had received a note from 011ie Mayer in Woodside who considered a control program necessary. N. Hanko talked about Jikoji's support of the program, noting that their concern is that the pigs will go to their property. She asked if there were plans to work with properties surrounding the District lands. J. Isaacs said they do not have control of where the pigs go. The pigs consider trapping as harassment and they will leave the area. She said they cannot authorize the trapper to go onto private property. It was up to Fish and Game to authorize individual depredation permits or for the homeowners in south Skyline to join together and hire a trapper. She said they had been in communication with South Skyline Association regarding the program. In addition the site was posted, and notices were sent to 153 interested parties and to adjacent neighbors to Long Ridge. In regard to birth control methods, she said this had been turned over to an intern for research on the subject. She said they hope to research as much as they can to try to learn what alternatives, if any, are available. The Board can expect a report next budget year. C. Britton said he and D. Simmons met with Mr. Brandenberg, and he had decided not to continue trapping but hoped the District will. They will probably fence their property. J. Isaacs said Fish and Game wrote the MOU. P. Siemens suggested changes to the language including deletion of Section F regarding coordination of news releases. S. Meeting 00-22 Page 4 Schectman said Fish and Game would not object to minor changes and the District could submit it as amended. Discussion followed regarding methods of termination. Regarding a study prior to entering into this program to gather evidence that pigs are causing erosion or damage to native species or increasing intrusion of exotics, J. Isaacs said it would take time and would have to be hired out. Results would depend on the questions asked. There are many variables including weather. She said three years is enough to deal with some variability. She said the main thing they would be looking at would be the reduction in rooting. There was further discussion of eliminating or amending Section F. C. Britton noted that S. Jensen thought the coordination should work both ways. It was agreed that the word "coordinate" would be changed to "consult" and that Section H wording would be changed to read, "For each wild pig killed, the District or its contractor will record information on this form within 24 hours. In addition, the District or its contractor will provide an annual reporting including copies of this tabulation. D. Little expressed concern that they were unable to find biological data from other places that have faced these problems concerning questions of damage to native species or intrusion of non native species. J.' Isaacs there are some studies and some biological evidence presented for both sides. She said their biggest concern at Long Ridge and the Skyline area in general is the red-legged frog. Regarding intrusion of non-native plants in the rooted areas, J. Isaacs said that pig rooting does promote it, but native perennials also thrive in pig-rooted areas. Regarding reseeding, J. Isaacs said they are watching ten plots which are not reseeding plots. She said the requirement to donate the pigs to charitable organizations is not in effect because of FDA inspection requirements. The pigs will not be buried on site but will go to a tallow rendering facility. Field staff will be keeping an eye on how many pigs have been terminated and we will get a receipt from the tallow company. She said there will be 5-10 traps at a maximum. One of the plots being monitored is near a stream. J. Isaacs talked about how other animals are protected from harm from the traps. The trapping will be done during times the preserve is closed. Brian Osborne, Route 2, Box 400, La Honda, representing South Skyline Association, read a letter into the record. The letter expressed support for a regional wild pig control program in South Skyline area. He said they would work with District staff in the effort. Meeting 00-22 Page 5 Jacob Osborne, Box 329C, Star Route 2, La Honda, said he was speaking on behalf of the red-legged frog. The Peters Creek stream bed is dug up. He only found two frogs in a 100 meter long section of the creek. He theorized that if pigs are allowed to stay they will decrease or eliminate the population of frogs. He talked about the effect of rooting on ponds and said he had noted a slick on the water. He supported a depredation program. D. Little encouraged him to talk to staff about an internship. Ruth Waldhauer, Shingle Mill, read a letter from Eva Spitz-Blum thanking the District for taking an interest and urging them to implement the wild pig program. Ann Waldhauer, 22400 Skyline Blvd. #35, La Honda, described an experience while hiking in Long Ridge. She said she had observed changes in pigs' behavior. She said it would be a shame to allow this special resource of open space to be spoiled. Anne Koletzke, 260 Linfield Drive, #3, Menlo Park, asked the Board to reconsider. She said she had heard a lot of speculation and felt they needed to do studies before proceeding. She thought there must be a more humane way of killing the pigs and said she would pay the difference if there is a more humane way that is more expensive. She suggested looking at Australia's program. Motion: D. Little moved that the Board determine that the recommended actions are statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) based on the findings contained in the staff report; authorize the General Manager to sign a Memorandum of Understanding by and between the California Department of Fish and Game and the District, as amended, for a wild pig control program on District lands in the South Skyline area; and authorize the General Manager to negotiate and execute a contract with a consultant to implement a trial three-year wild pig control program in the South Skyline area with a budget not to exceed $15,000 in fiscal year 2000-2001. P. Siemens seconded the motion. Discussion: P. Siemens said he would like to see a report at the end of the year and hoped they would use the information and other resources discussed at this meeting. Amendment: D. Little amended the motion to ask the District biologist or contractor to come up with suggestions on how to put animals to sleep or drug them before they are killed. Staff indicated that this could be done without a motion amendment. Discussion: D. Little said the point is that this is a non-native species killing native species, and it was time to take action. J. Isaacs said they had not tried Meeting 00-22 Page 6 fencing the sensitive areas because they are not sure how to do it without inhibiting other movements. She said the fencing of a watershed or a stream is very difficult. Vote: The motion passed 5 to 0. C. Agenda Item No. 3 - Sausal Trail Use Designation at Windy Hill Open Space Preserve -(Report R-00-1 12). B. Crowder asked to have the item moved to the September 27 agenda because the equestrians were not able to be at this meeting to plead their case. C. Britton said staff would like to wait until the two trails that are being realigned are completed. He said at a previous meeting, there was a recommendation that the trail not be open to equestrians, but the matter was tabled. B. Crowder said the objective of the horse people is to get horses off the road. By consensus, the Board continued the item to the September 27 meeting. D. Agenda Item No. 4 - Authorize the General Manager to Execute a Permit to Enter Allowing Spring Ridge, LLC and Their Consultants, Louis Borde General Engineering and CJW Architecture, to Enter Windy Hill Open Space Preserve for the Purpose of Replacing and Repairing Drainage Improvements at Sausal Creek; Authorize the General Manager to Execute a License Agreement Allowing Spring Ridge, LLC to Place, Maintain and Repair Improvements - (Report R-00-87). D. Simmons presented the staff report. He explained that Mr. Neeley proposed an exchange in which all the improvements would be on his property, and the District would acquire undisturbed land somewhere else along the border of Windy Hill and his property. B. Crowder described the culvert which is failing and said the road is falling away. D. Simmons said the culvert being replaced is 50 years old. B. Crowder noted that the creek is not a year-round creek. K. Nitz asked how they could exchange dedicated open space. S. Schectman noted that it would require a 7 to 0 vote. C. Britton said they can they can exchange up to 40 acres a year maximum and it has to be exchanged for open space land of equal value adjoining the same preserve. As to why they weren't replacing the culvert with a bridge, C. Britton said the culvert was grandfathered in. Regarding the stockpiles, D. Simmons said the requirement is that the land be restored to its pre-existing condition, and the District will be monitoring it for three years. Meeting 00-22 Page 7 Motion: P. Siemens moved that the Board authorize the General Manager to execute the Permit to Enter allowing Spring Ridge, LCC (SRLLC) and their consultants, Louis Bordi General Engineering and CJW Architecture, to access Windy Hill Open Space Preserve for the purpose of replacing a 72-inch culvert and to make other drainage improvements at Sausal Creek; and authorize the General Manager and General Counsel to approve minor revisions to the Permit to Enter. N. Hanko seconded the motion. Discussion: S. Schectman read from the contract about the restrictions on the stockpiling on District land. She said Mr. Neeley had worked with staff on this matter.

A. Ruiz outlined staff recommendations as contained in the report. She said the grade is 10-15 percent on the spur trail at the top of Hunter's Point, except for some small spots where it is greater. She said the trail will be 10 feet wide. Trail signage will be added. She said the plants lining the road are star thistle and the remnants of an old apricot orchard. Motion: P. Siemens moved that the Board determine that the recommended actions are categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as set out in the staff report; and tentatively adopt an amendment to the Trails Plan Element of the Use and Management Plan for Fremont Older Open Space Preserve as contained in the staff report. D. Little seconded the motion. Vote: The motion passed 5 to 0. F.

D. Woods outlined staff's recommendations. He showed slides of the property in question. He described how he confirmed that the south side of the hill was contained within the boundaries of the property. He said he had heard that the Sisters of Presentation desire to work with the District. C. Britton said this property was very desirable, because there is no nearby development and it is an in-holding between lands of POST and the Sisters of the Presentation. Motion: N.

P. Siemens seconded the motion. Discussion: S. Schectman addressed the terms of the acquisition, noting that it represents a bargain sale from the seller's point of view. As further consideration of the bargain sale, the District is being asked to approve an amendment to the prior purchase agreement with Arlie regarding the indemnity. She said this amendment would relieve Arlie of its obligation to provide financial security to back the indemnity. However, the indemnity has not been narrowed in scope or changed in any way. D. Little and K. Nitz expressed concerns about spending that much money for six acres. C. Britton said the Sisters of Presentation are interested in working out a deal where all will be preserved as open space. He said the property is expensive but is within market value.
