CM:sh I I R-80-2 (Meeting 80-2 1/23/80 Agenda Item No. 2) MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT REPORT January 4 , 1980 TO: Board of Directors FROM: H. Grench, General Manager SUBJECT: Appointment of Board Committees Introduction: Your Rules of Procedure call for appointment of members of the Budget and Legislative Committees at the first Regular Meeting following the election of officers. The Rules also name the Treasurer as a member of the Budget Committee. These appointments to standing committees in past years have also led to discussion of membership and assignments of ad hoc committees. This report gives information which should be useful to you in your deliberations. It became clear in going back through agendas, minutes and reports that the documentation of the mission, role and current work status (and even the committee' s name! ) was quite sketchy for some committees. Therefore, the present report also focuses on clarification of these factors. Standing Committees : The 1979 membership of the standing committees is noted below along with comments : Budget Committee K. Duffy H. Turner (as 1979 Treasurer) D. Wendin This committee has dealt extensively with finance, budget and personnel matters. Although its purpose and role have not been explicitly set forth in writ- ing, no confusion in this regard (to me, at least) has arisen. Future confusion might be avoided if the purposes and role were documented and adopted by the Board. R-80-2 Page two Legislative Committee R. Bishop B. Green N. Hanko The purpose of this committee and its functions with respect to Board and staff are set forth in considerable detail in the "policy on Legislative Committee" , adopted by the Board on August 10, 1977 , and in "Policies for Handling Legislative Matters" , adopted by you on July 25, 1979. Ad Hoc Committees : The 1979 membership of the ad hoc committees is noted below along with comments : Hassler/Edgewood Committee R. Bishop H. Turner D. Wendin This committee was formed on September 29 , 1976 initially for discussion with San Carlos officials of joint acqi- sition and management of the Hassler site. Since both the Hassler and Edgewood projects are in the "final" implementation stages, it appears that the committee could be disbanded. Picchetti Winery Committee R. Bishop K. Duffy H. Turner The Picchetti Winery Committee was one of three ad hoc site use review committees formed on May 10, 1978 to review pending proposals. Staff will be prepared shortly to meet again with the Committee regarding a plan of action for the old winery area. Deer Hollow Committee B. Green E. Shelley D. Wendin The Deer Hollow Committee was formed on May 10, 1978 to study the Mountain View proposal for use of a portion of Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve. It appears that the committee completed its work and could be officially disbanded. R-80-2 Page three Site Naming Committee K. Duffy B. Green D. Wendin This committee was formed on May 14 , 1975 and reported to you on October 15, 1975 with recommended site naming policies which you adopted. It appears that the committee completed its work and could be officially disbanded. There had been some discussion about re- ferring permanent, or even temporary, specific site names to a committee but this has not been done (aside from discussions of the site naming policy committee) . Dog Committee R. Bishop K. Duffy B. Green A committee which is to study the question of whether dogs should or should not be allowed on District lands was established on May 10, 1978 . Both Board and staff have been heavily involved in items of high priority since that time, and the committee has never met. Site Use Committee K. Duffy N. Hanko E. Shelley At the meeting of May 10 , 1978 the Site Use Committee reported on "Procedures Regarding Concession and Other Use Proposals. " The Board adopted concession policies at that meeting but referred back to Committee the recommended procedures for reviewing proposals for special and/or long term use of MROSD lands and facilities. The Committee reported back on this item on August 23 , 1978 , and policies were adopted. The Committee was also given an assignment on May 10 , to combine Board policies on the use of District properties into a single stan- dardized use policy. This assignment appeared to be of much lower priority than many other District matters and has not been completed. Although the minutes of June 27 , 1979 do not indicate an assignment from the Board, they do indicate that Director Kay Duffy thought "that perhaps the Board committee on structures and improvement should reevaluate the adopted policy re- garding rentals" (market rentals) . Interestingly, the 111-ay 10 , 1978 minutes seem to indicate that the "Use R-80-2 Page four Review Committee" was replaced by the three ad hoc committees for Rancho San Antonio and Fremont Older Open Space Preserves and for the Picchetti Ranch area. The name, status and assignments of the Site Use Com- mittee should be clarified. Workshop Committee B. Green E. Shelley This committee was established near the end of 1979 and will be meeting January 15 and 21, 1980. The Fremont Older Ranchhouse Committee gave its final report and was disbanded on October 18 , 1979. Recommendation: It is recommended that you (1) officially disband those ad hoc committees which you feel have com- pleted their assignments (2) assign to each remaining ad hoc committee and the Budget Committee the task of returning to you with a recommended statement of purpose and role of the committee. HG:jg M-80-12 (Meeting 80-2 1/23/80 Agenda Item No. 3) MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT MEMORANDUM January 17, 1980 TO: Board of Directors FROM: C. Britton, Assistant General Manager SUBJECT: Date and Agenda for Proposed Board/Staff Workshop Introduction: The Workshop Agenda Committee, composed of Barbara Green and Ed Shelley, met with staff on Tuesday, January 15, to discuss possible topics and dates for the Board/Staff Workshop. The Committee considered the following topics: site emphasis, office needs, public communications , and Board/Staff roles and relationships. They decided that the workshop should focus on the question of site emphasis (and non-emphasis) , a topic that intrinsically includes many aspects of public communications. They also suggested that a Board Committee be formed to discuss office needs since the District' s current office space lease expires in November. The staff suggested that the topic of Board/Staff roles and relationships might be the subject of a future staff retreat. Discussion: The Committee decided initially to focus on the Monte Bello Open Space Preserve as a specific subject for discussions of site emphasis policies , with the resulting attached preliminary draft agenda. However, since the Monte Bello plan has already been approved in concept, there was some discussion as to whether the morning session should concentrate on criteria for non-emphasized sites. Therefore , the Workshop Committee will be meeting again with staff on Monday, January 21 to review the agenda, with the possibility that new materials will be available at the Board meeting of January 23 for additional consideration. Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Directors set the date and time for the Board/Staff Workshop (Saturday, February 23 from 9 : 30 AM to 3 : 00 Pm was the best date for those attending the committee meeting) . It is also recommended that the agenda for the workshop be adopted based upon the final draft as submitted by the Agenda Committee, if finalized by January 23.

Britton, Assistant General Manager PREPARED BY: C. DiGiovanni, Environmental Resource Planner SUBJECT: Dedication of Two Parcels of Land (Fremont Older Open Space Preserve) and Addition of One Parcel To Undedicated Lands Report Discussion: On February 28, 1979 the Board adopted Resolution No. 79-13 dedicating certain District lands for public open space purposes. Two parcels of land within the Fremont Older Open Space Preserve, the former Claitor and Radin-McDonald properties, were inadvertently omitted from the list of lands to be dedicated. Also, a one acre parcel (the former Boy Scout Property) located in Stevens Canyon, was omitted from the list of lands to be withheld from dedication, which the Board reviewed at its meeting of January 9, 1980. Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board adopt the attached Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Mid- peninsula Regional Open Space District Dedicating Certain District Lands to Public Open Space Purposes. It is also recommended that the Board receive and accept one additional parcel for the list of Undedicated District Lands.

The bill was passed by that committee on a vote of 5-2. It is now on the Senate floor and will be voted upon in the last half of January. I would appreciate it very much if you would write anothei, letter of support, this time to whatever Senators represent land owned by the district. Senator Marz Garcia will be a particularly important vote. I am enclosing copies of materials which are relevant to your concerns. Thank you for your assistance.

As evidenced by responses from park-type agencies in other States where this type of legislation is in effect, there has been a drastic reduction in litter and park maintenance costs. One of the continuing management problems of the nearly 7,000 acres that our District owns in the foothills of San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties is the time and cost involving litter removal. Not only is the litter visibly displeasing to motorists, hikers and equestrians, it also creates a significant hazard when the bottles are broken or the cans are rusty. In a time when the conservation of resources and saving taxpayers' dollars are of primary importance, this bill represents a sound method of helping to accomplish both objectives. Enact- ment of SB 4 will, I feel, be cost-effective in the long run for private industry, public agencies and the taxpayer. We respectfully request that you consider these reasons and vote in favor of Senate Bill 4. Sincerely, Herbert Grench General Manager cc: Senator Omer L. Rains R.
