V. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS Craig Conway, 2001 Bear Gulch Road, Woodside, addressed the Board re- garding his concerns over the purchase of the Dyer property. He stated that his concerns are 1) the use and safety of Bear Gulch and Allen Roads, and 2) the use of Bear Gulch Road by people not used to driving on Bear Gulch Road. He recommended to the Board that a safe, direct access to the Dyer property be made from Skyline Boulevard. H. Grench noted that, because of some of the problems related to the Dyer property, the neighbors would be -brought into the planning pro- cesses in a very significant manner to assure neighborhood input. i Her;era A Grench,General Manager Board of Directors:Katherine Duffy,Nonette G.Hanko,Teena Henshaw,Richard S.Bishop,Edward G.Shelley,Harry A.Turner,Daniel G.Wendin Meetinq 86-17 Page 2 R. Bishop said that the planning process for this acquisition would be for a period of one year during which time access to the property would be limited and would 'require a permit to enter the Preserve. Kathy Miller, 16222 Skyline Boulevard, Woodside, stated her concerns about turning Allen Road into a public road. Bob Upton, 245 Allen Road, Woodside, , noted his concerns about easement rights to the Dyer property from Allen Road. He asked if the District had contemplated other accesses to the land. D. Wendin asked D. Hansen to be sure these individuals would be involved in the planning process for the use and management planning for the Dyer property. Discussion followed on the notification procedures which are used to inform neighboring property owners of District acquisitions . N. Hanko stated she believed neighbors should be notified of property acquisitions by the District at the time of acquisition and not at close of escrow. VI. ADOPTION OF AGENDA D. Wendin stated that the agenda was adopted by Board consensus. VII . BOARD BUSINESS A. Review of the Use and Management Plan for the Fremont Older. Open Space Preserve (report R-.86-49 of July 1, 1986) D. Hansen reviewed the report, noting the three additional Use and Management Plan items that had been considered since the last re- view. D. Woods noted that use of the Preserve had increased due possibly to the fact that dogs are now allowed on sections of the Preserve, running events which are scheduled periodically, and the increasing popularity of mountain bicycles . He reviewed the sum- mary charts attached to the report, and he noted that three major items are now being considered for the new or revised Use and Manage- ment projects : 1) securing the parking lot; 2) Seven Springs drain- age repairs and clean-up, and 3) to solicit an agricultural lease for the hayfield. Slides were shown of the Preserve. K. Duffy noted a discrepancy in the report which stated the trail entrance to the hayfield would be realigned and clarified in 1987- 1988, and on Chart A this is scheduled for 1986-1987 . D. Hansen stated this item is scheduled for late 1986, and K. Duffy said cor- rection should be made to page 3 of the staff report. She also noted that the adobe has remained vacant for the past two years, and she stated that the lease should be settled to get the building occupied. W. Goggin gave an update of his efforts to secure a les- see for the adobe and that decisions will need to be made regarding how best to address the problems of deterioration of the structure. Robert McKibbin, 1331 Los Arboles, Sunnyvale, stated his opposition to an agricultural lease for the hayfield. Motion: R. Bishop moved the tentative adoption of the Revised Use and Management Plan for the Fremont Older Open Space Pre- serve as contained in the staff report. H. Turner seconded the motion. Discussion : Discussion centered on preservation of the L Meeting 86-17 Page 3 meadow area to preserve bird and wildlife habitats, and staff was asked to report back at the second reading on the study that had been done regarding hayfield operations. B. Proposed Addition to the Thornewood Open Space Preserve (Zand Acqui- sition (report R-86-52 of July 2 , 1986) D. Hansen reviewed the staff report which proposes the purchase of 11. 4 acres of land located in the Town of Woodside southeast of the intersection of Dennis Martin Creek and Old La Honda Road for a purchase price of $260,000, and W. Goggin reviewed the terms of the purchase agreement as containedlin the report. D. Hansen noted that the lot is a building site and that staff is recommending that the property not be dedicated at this time. He said the potential for the lot lies in a trade for other land or trail rights in the vicinity or for resale if a trail connection cannot be made. D. Wendin stated that the purchase of the Zand property at this time is a contingent purchase which could be used over the next few years as part of an acquisition plan to completion of a trail, or the property could be resold if a trail connection cannot be made. N. Hanko concurred with D. Wendin 's statement and noted that at the present time the purchase of the property seems the only y wayto provide a trail to Wunderlich County Park and also to Windy Hill Open Space Preserve. She said she feels strongly that the District sh ould not invade the Grandview Drive area, which is on a private road. Motion: H. Turner moved the adoption of Resolution 86-42, a Resolu- tion of the Board of Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District Authorizing Acceptance of Agreement to Purchase Real Property, Authorizing Officer to Execute Cer- tificate of Acceptance of Grant to District, and Author- izing General Manager to Execute Any and All Other Docu- ments Necessary to Closing of the Transaction (Thornewood Open Space Preserve - Zand Property) . R. Bishop seconded the motion. The motion passed 5 to 0. Motion: H. Turner moved the tentative adoption of the Interim Use and Management Plan recommendations contained in the report, naming the property an addition to the Thornewood Open Space Preserve, and indicating the Board's intention to withhold the property from dedication at this time. N. Hanko seconded the motion. The motion passed 5 to 0. C. Progress Report on Contract Sheriff 's Patrol Program for the Sierra Azul Open Space Preserve, Mt. Umunhum Area (report R-86-51 of July 2 , 1986) J. Boland reported that good progress had been made with the Sheriff 's Department to secure an agreement which would provide patrol coverage of approximately 20 hours per week for the District's Mt. Umunhum and Hicks Road areas. He noted that only a few minor points in a formal agreement still need to be worked out and that the Sheriff's Depart- ment was willing to get started on the basis of an informal agreement. J Meeting 86-17 Page 4 Motion: D. Wendin moved that the Board authorize staff to proceed with an oral agreement with the Sheriff 's Department which would be effective for a period of up to six weeks during which time a formal written agreement can be implemented. D. Duffy seconded the motion. Discussion: Several residents of the Mt. Umunhum-Hicks Road areas were present to report on problems in the vicin- ity which require patrol coverage. Discussion centered on how extensive the patrol coverage should be, and D. Hansen stated coverage would be provided only for District lands. J. Boland noted that Sheriff 's Deputy Doug Miller was killed ' recently in the line of duty while working near the Lex- ington area. Rick Estrada stated that one of the residents has suggested that some kind of appropriate monument be dedicated to the memory of Deputy Miller. The motion passed 5 to 0. D. Wendin said he would like a progress report in one month after the agreement is in effect and he stated this should � be agendized so that residents could be keptinformed.formed.. D. Land Acquisition Policy Brochure Content Outline (report R-86-50 of July 1, 1986) H. Grench provided an overview of the staff report, and he noted that a number of specific purposes and uses of the brochure are stated on page 2 of the report. He said that upon the Board 's general approval and modification of the outline, staff will return to the Board with the exact wording of the text to be recommended for the brochure. N. Hanko suggested that an open-ended sentence, "I would like more information regarding. . . (your comment) " be added as number 7 to Section V, Tear-Out Return Form, on page 4 of the staff report. D. Wendin felt that Item D of Section II, "Procedures used in the acquisition of property by the District, including policies regarding potential use of eminent domain and arbitration, " may deserve a major section of its own. H. Grench concurred with both comments. Motion: K. Duffy moved that the Board approve the preliminary out- line for content and format as described in the staff re- port; mail the brochure to everyone on the Board-approved lists in an initial, well-publicized, mailing; print and mail the entire text of the eminent domain policy as a separate document at the time the brochure is initially mailed; include a letter from the President to introduce the brochure when it is initially mailed; and include the two changes suggested at this meeting. N. Hanko secon- ded the motion. The motion passed 5 to 0 . VIII. INFORMATIONAL REPORTS H. Grench reported that the 1986 promissory note closing went well. H. Grench reported on two items of legislation which are of interest to the District. He said that SB 1717 , the 500 million dollar open space Meeting 86-17 Page 5 bond issue, has been deferred, and a decision will be made later to determine if this measure will appear on the June or November 1988 bal- lot. He said that SB, 1685 , the District-sponsored legislation, passed the Ways and Means Committee today. J. Boland reported that there were no major incidents on District pre- serves on the Fourth of July. He noted that ten Rangers were on duty and that attendance figures were high, especially at Fremont Older, Ran- cho San Antonio, and the Skyline area. He also reported on two acci- dents which occurred last Saturday at Fremont n Older Open Space Preserve,. one an equestrian accident and the other a bicycle accident. K. Duffy referred to an article which appeared in the June issue of the Kings Mountain Association newsletter which gave a distorted view of the District's burning procedures at the Purisima Creek Redwoods Open Space Preserve. J. Boland stated that the District had attempted to obtain a permit from California Department of Forestry to burn slash which had been removed from the wh ole access trail on the Preserve. He noted that weather conditions at the time, during the winter months , were wet and cold, and CDF advised staff that a burn permit would not be required during the off-season; however, an air quality permit was required and obtained from CDF for the burn operation. He said he called Jim Warren and Bob Seaby to protest the article and was told the Association would print a letter stating the District's position in a subsequent issue of the newsletter. It was the consensus of the Board that a letter should definitely be sent stating that the District had followed proper pro- 1 cedures. l N. Hanko told of a report she had received of timber cutting in the vi- cinity of El Corte de Madera Creek Open Space Preserve. Staff reported that they are monitoring this activity for violations of the agreement. K. Duffy reported on a newspaper article concerning the proposed road over the Novitiate property to the Sisters of Charity property which had been approved by the Los Gatos Town Council. D. Hansen said that a timetable had been prepared for the Master Plan process as requested by the Board at its last meeting. IX. CLAIMS Motion: D. Wendin moved the approval of Revised Claims 86-13. H. Turner seconded the motion. The motion passed 5 to 0. X. CLOSED SESSION D. Wendin said that no Closed Session would be necessary. XI. ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at 10 :10 P.M.

I I entered the Purissima drainage below Tunitas Creek Road along the ridge dividing Purissima and Tunitas Creeks. I believe i the road I walked to Purissima Creek is located within Grabt+own Gulch . At three or four locations I observed downed trees that i had fallen across the road. Recently someone, presumably employ- ees of MPROSD, chain sawed these trees to permit passage. Judging from the consistent width of the removed section of tree I think the person(s) were in some type of four wheel vehicle. In each instance the full width of the tree fallen across the road was not removed; only a section of trunk sufficiently long for passage of a vehicle. Thus there remains fallen trees with distall sections removed and the thicker basal portion jutting out into the road. The appearance of these mitigations to road I i blockage is haphazard and unprofessional . Furthermore, the chain sawed portion of these trees was moved to the side of the road rather than transported from the Preserve. When leaving the Purissima Creek Preserve via the Purissima Creek Road in the eastern direction, towards Skyline Boulevard, i 1 1 I encountered three men in the process of felling redwood trees displaced downslope due to slope failure onto the Purissima Creek Road. I believe two were MPROSD employees and the third a consultant in forestry practices. I was not perturbed by their presence as there was clearly a need to remove the landslide. However, after passing these men and proceeding a short distance along the Purissima Creek Road I observed a large sized Douglas Fir tree that had fallen across the road. This tree had been chain sawed into sections, I presume by the aforementioned individualsp and a large diameter (approximately 4 feet ) section of trunk rolled downslope off the edge of the road. Two points concerning forestry management practices are relevant to my observations: I . In both situations the execution of removing downed trees was poor . The sloppy manner in which the trees were sectioned and casually discarded serves to exacerbate the pervasive presence of the effects of past logging practices within the drainage of Purissima Creek which have significa- ntly altered biotic equilibrium and produced a blighted appearance to the watershed. Il . The MPROSD needs to initiate a program of removal and stockpiling of small and large diameter tree sections for eventual sale as firewood and milling stock . The first point is readily comprehended and justified. Simply,the District must cut trees for various reasons related to parkland management therefore it should be certain the job is performed properly with attention to appearance and the removal of sectioned trees from the forest floor . The second point is controversial and therefore worthy of discussion. 2 v a4awojd o4 wstue4maw e se pue djuawa6euew puejM-ied }o asinoD aq4 UT s8aJ4 -4.0 TeAOWaJ aAt43ajaS 4e44 aAT43adsied ut pa3eld aq 4snw 11 -SPueT 43TJ�STG -4.0 5utBBOT Teimiawwo3 palmeq 4Dtj4sxa o4 Aem a44 Butuado '66pam a44 ,}O a6pa UT44,, a44 Se aTes _4.o we-t6ojd e 4damuo3 ut aATaDjad ITTm aw0s se IeZSUaAOj4uo3 ATleT4ua4od ST sPueT aso8dw wo-} PaAOWaJ SaaJ4 ButTlas ,.o 4daDuo3 a41 -saajq pajun4s -4.0 spue4s u14; pue sat3ads aaj4 alqeJTsepun TTn3 AlaAT13alaS 4eq4 swe-ABoid apTm utseq a6euxeip wja4-buot J.0 uol4el4TUt 4pue IsapTIspueT ut4llm pa4ejodjo3ut -AO ssa:):)e Butjaput4 saaj4 -4.0 TeAOWOJ Se 43ns spuewap uox4e-tado PueTMjed wja4-jeau aq4 4aaw o4 pau6isap sanbxu43a4 4uawabeuew 4sajo3. punas _4.o uotle3tldde je3T43ejd a44 4Bnojq4 atqe4n3axa aq ATuO ue3 AqdosoTTqd UaA-IaSU03 e 43nS -wnTjqTtTnba xewtl3 piemo4 spaqs -ja4em paBBol jo juaw4snrpeaj a4owojd tsape3ap }o -iap-to aq4 uo awTj �o spoTiad UOAt6 ATITm 4eq4 sa3t43ejd Aj4sajo} _4.o uot4owojd pue SpUel 4SaJO_4. 10 UOT4eA-(aSU03 a4� 44TM 4Ua4STSU03 jUaWabeUeW 4sajol _4.o we-i5ojd e a4etZTut AjaAt43e 04 GS08dW a44 JOI S4STXa Paau a44 SUOT41PU03 Pa43edwt 3.0 a3uaTeAajd a44 _4.o asneDag -saajl _4.o spue4s pa4un4s 4n3 puo3a6s pue Isitj 4sod 44Tm pasiadsjaAui sqnjqs pue 4sniq aTqessedwT ua4.po jo xtw 3t4oe43 e :uoT4Tpuo3 pal3edwt 4uasaid jTa44 ut utewai TITm spuel 4saJOJ- aSO8dW a44 jo .sow weift-id 4uawa6euew 4sajo.. pa4-La3uo3 Aue _4.o anua:)sqe a4� uj -ajt_4. _4.o uotssaiddns pue sa3x43ejd BuTbBOT 4sed jo sq3edwi zx4 -st6jauAs pautqwo3 a44 Aq pe3eTdsTp wnTjqTlTnba xewtT3 .4.0 4uaw4st -1qe4saj aq4 a4eJaTa33e Aj4uenT�Tubts pTnom sanbxu43a4 alqeBPaT -mount ut papunojB AlpTlas weiBoid uOT4e4TTTqeqaj 4sajo_4. V return to climax equilibrium, is a necessary component of the management of District lands. The initiation of a selective tree removal program for the long-term enhancement of biotic stability will present a unique opportunity for education of the public and II analysis of a watershed rehabilitation programs within the Santa Cruz mountains. The sale of culled trees would be a consequence of, not reason for , a rehabilitation program. The commercial sale of cut trees resulting from such a program would serve two purposes. First , to supplant some increment of forest destruction that would occur otherwise for the intended commercial sale of trees without regard to a rehabilitation program. Second, to provide, as a consequence of sale, additional funds for the operation of District lands. In considering the concepts I have put forth in this letter one should note the biotic communities of the Santa Cruz Mount- ains have suffered significant alteration since the advent of European based settlement . The concept of, and perception where found, of climax forest ecosystems, especially of coastal redwoods is alien to most people. Knowing not the ecology and appearance of a climax forest most people are inclined to conceive of the biotic composition of the Santa Cruz Mountains as at present being as past . I think that beyond the acquisition of lands by the MPROSD, it is also the duty of the organization to educate the lay public of the magnitude and manner in which humankind alters the natural systems from which we gain our 4 sustenance. Only through a concerted long-term effort at rehabil- itation of impacted watersheds to pre-human impact conditions can MPROSD effectively place in perspective the extent to which our natural heritages and our own security, is diminished through poor land stewardship . Sincerely, Robert Zatkin P.O. Box 620502 Woodside, CA 94062 5 R-86-56 (Meeting 86-18 July 23 , 1986) Nb I * MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT REPORT July 18 , 1986 TO: Board of Directors FROM: C. Britton, Assistant General Manager RESPONSIBILITY AND PREPARATION: D. Hansen, Land Manager; D. Woods , Open Space Planner SUBJECT: Final Adoption of the Revised Use and Management Plan for Fremont Older Open Space Preserve Recommendation: I recommend that you adopt the Revised Use and Management Plan for Fremont Older Open Space Preserve as contained in report R-86-49 and as amended herein. Introduction: At your July 9 , 1986 meeting the proposed Revised Use and Management Plan for Fremont Older Open Space Preserve was presented by staff and tentatively adopted by you with a request for staff to address further the issues related to the disposition of the adobe residence and the pro- posed lease of the hayfield. The following discussion and amended use and management recommendations address these points . There have been no other public comments received regarding the review of this Use and Management Plan, Discussion: A. Adobe Residence You asked that staff expedite the disposition of the adobe structure which had previously been occupied by a resident Ranger. Negotiations have been stalemated with the Older house lessees , and the house had suffered somewhat during the two years it has been unoccupied. Three options remain available toward resolving the adobe 's disposition. They are : 1. Add the adobe and grounds to the Levine Lease with a restoration requirement, but with no rental payment. Any rental payment re- quirement with uirement has been the problem in the current negotiations q P g the ev h L ines 2 Seek a separate tenant for the adobe. This would require repair • P q P to the structure which would probably cost on the order of $10 ,000 if performed independently by MROSD. If performed by a tenant, it is not reasonable to expect any significant rental payment by the tenant for two to three years . No landscaping or other restoration of the grounds would be included. If the District first repaired and then rented this structure, it is anticipated that it would rent for a minimum of $550 per month and would therefore take approximately 2 years to recoup the investment. 3 . Demolish the adobe. This option would not be desirable due to the historic nature of the structure. R-86-56 Page 2 Staff is recommending that option number one be pursued at this time. Amended Use and Management Recommendation 1. Open Space Acquisition staff will pursue resolution of the adobe building protection and restoration by offering that the structure and surrounding gardens be included in the existing older house tenants ' lease at no cost, but with required phased restoration included. B. Hayfield Lease Staff has reviewed information from its 1981 study of the hayfield and has further investigated comments concerning the potential impacts the hayfield may have on the nesting of the meadowlarks . The study, which was conducted by a District Ranger, consisted of regu- lar on-site observations of the meadowlark during a normal harvest and discing period which is approximately mid-June. The results indicated there were no birds sighted during this period of time which, after con- sulting with local ornithologists, was interpreted to mean that the 1) nesting period may have past or 2) the annual discing practices discour- aged the birds from nesting in this area at all. Assuming the latter was true, it is quite possible the meadowlark has been able to establish nesting grounds in the hayfield in the past few years since harvesting and discing have been discontinued. This has been approximately three years . With this in mind, staff consulted with U.C. Agriculture Extension Service and a biologist for information concerning the reinstatement of the hay crop practices. The general opinion is that the harvesting and discing, if conducted in mid to late June, will not interfere with the nesting of the meadowlark as they fledge their young early in June. In addition, it was pointed out that the meadowlark will re-establish a new nest if its nest is disturbed. It was advised that if we wanted to maximize the potential of survival , we could create strips or islands in the hayfield which would be util- ized by the few meadowlarks nesting later than normal. These islands could also be utilized for plant dynamics studies to see how baccharis or other plants return under unhindered plant succession conditons. This could possibly be volunteer or local college project. Based on this information, staff is recommending pursuing an agricul- tural tenant for the hayfield in an effort to provide continuing compat- able agricultural land use practices , and as a practical method of controlling the encroachment of invasive species and to increase fire protection for the surrounding area. Amended Use and Management Recommendation 1. Staff will pursue an agricultural lease for the hayfield area for the spring of 1987 . The lease will incorporate conditions for the timing of the harvest and discing, and the provision of undisturbed vegetative islands to promote the potential nesting of the meadow- lark, and a study of plant succession, if feasible. R-86-55 (Meeting 86-18 July 23 , 1986) MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT REPORT July 17 , 1986 TO: Board of Directors FROM: C . Britton, Assistant General Manager RESPONSIBILITY AND PREPARATION: D. Hansen, Land Manager; D. Woods, Open Space Planner; M. Gundert, Associate Open Space Planner SUBJECT: Review of the Use and Management Plan for the San Mateo Baylands Reserve and Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area Recommendation: I recommend that you tentatively adopt the Use and Man- agement Plan recommendations for the San Mateo County Baylands Reserve and Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area as contained in this report. Introduction: The Use and Management Plan for the San Mateo County Bay- lands Reserve and Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area was last reviewed by you at your November 14 , 1984 meeting with final adoption of the plan occurring at your November 28 , 1984 meeting. There has been one addition to the San Mateo County Baylands Reserve since the last review. In September 1985 , the District entered into a 50-year lease agreement for approximately 98 acres of land immediately south of the Dumbarton Bridge from the State Lands Commission. Including the lease area, the San Mateo County Baylands Reserve now encompasses 372 acres while the Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area contains 54 acres. The following reports are available for reference; ° Use and Management Plan Review for San Mateo County Baylands Reserve and Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area, report R-84-49 , dated November 7 , 1984; ° Final Adoption of the Revised Use and Management Plan for San Mateo County Baylands Reserve and Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area, memorandum M-84-96, dated November 19 , 1984; ° District Lease of Portion of San Mateo County Baylands Reserve from State Lands Commission, memorandum M-85-34 , dated February 22 , 1985 ; ° Final Adoption of Interim Use and Management Pl an for State Lands Commission Lease Addition to the San Mateo County Baylands Reserve, memorandum M-85-135, dated September 3 , 1985. San Mateo County Baylands Reserve I. Site Description and Use The Reserve is comprised of two non-contiguous land units. The larger land unit, located near Cooley Landing at the end of Bay Road, encom- passes 266 acres and is comprised of a former salt pond, surrounding levee, and tidal mudflat. Use of the area remains low due to the poor access and lack of parking. On the other hand, the second land unit, R-86-55 Page 2 located adjacent to and south of the Dumbarton Bridge approach, is much more accessible, located next to the parking for the new Dumbar- ton Fishing Pier. Use of the levee has been low due to the levee 's surface on which dredge spoils were placed in 1983 . The adjacent Dumbarton Fishing Pier opened to the public in the fall of 1985 . The fishing pier is part of the San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge and is managed by the United States Department of Fish and Wildlife. Day to day operations are contracted to California Land Management, a private company. II . Planning Considerations District staff and the San Mateo County Parks and Recreation Depart- ment have reached a tentative understanding and applied for a trail development grant from the California Coastal Conservancy. The $495 ,226 grant, if awarded, would fund the purchase of necessary trail easements and construction of the South Bay Trail from Runnymede Street to Bay Road and encircling the former salt pond adjacent to Bay Road. If the grant application is successful, the construction drawings and contract administration would be the primary responsibility of San Mateo County. This project would implement the District 's envisioned trails plan for this area. For more information on this item please refer to report R-86-54 , contained in this packet. The Lucky Acres property at the end of Demeter Street has recently transferred ownership. Staff from Bay Conservation Development Commis- sion (BCDC) have indicated the configuration of the proposed develop- ment on this property will most likely be changed, thus affecting the public access facilities and open space easements which were proposed for District management in the original Lucky Acres Development plan (refer to report R-84-49, dated November 7 , 1984) . The Ravenswood Triangle has not been returned to tidal action and re- mains in State ownership. Questions regarding the possibility of flooding of adjacent properties if the land is open to tidal action have yet to be resolved. In addition, the endangered salt march har- vest mouse may have been found on the property, further complicating the matter. The owners of the adjacent Menlo Business Park property proposed the trade with CalTrans of 4. 8 acres of the Ravenswood Triangle for a strip of land that CalTrans needs to widen University Avenue along with set- tlement of other disputes. In addition to the proposed trade of land, the owner of the Menlo Business Park has filed for a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to fill approximately 20 acres of land (including the 4. 8 acre trade parcel) to expand the business park. The permit is still pending and the entire issue is currently in Federal Fish and Wildlife Service' s hands. A. Access and Circulation The Coastal Conservancy grant application identified a three phase project and funding for the first phase is being requested at this time. Phases 2 and 3 would extend development of the bicycle and hiking trail from the northern end of the District' s former salt pond next to Bay Road to the Ravenswood Area of the San Francisco Bay Wildlife Refuge next to the Dumbarton Bridge. At the present time parking in the Bay Road area is very limited. Phase 1 in- cludes the development of a parking area on Bay Road which would provide access to the Bay Road portion of the Reserve. R-86-55 Page 3 The entrance to the northern portion of the Reserve is much more pronounced. Immediately adjacent to the parking area for the Dum- barton Fishing Pier, a gate and stile and associated regulatory sign were installed prior to the opening of the pier for fishing. The levee, however, is still covered with dredge spoils, creating a hummocky levee surface that makes walking difficult. The spoils, which require a two year drying period, have dried sufficiently and grading of the levee is scheduled for this fall. New or Revised Use and Management Recommendations 1. Staff will continue to monitor the Lucky Acres Development Plan with BCDC. In the event the new owner contacts the District regarding management responsibility of the public amenities, staff will return the item to you for your consideration. 2. Staff will continue to work with San Mateo County and the Cali- fornia Coastal Conservancy on implementation of the South Bay Trail from Runnymede Street to the Dumbarton Bridge. 3. A parking area, bridge, and perimeter hiking and bicycling trail will be constructed on the Reserve by San Mateo County if Phase 1 of the Coastal Conservancy Grant is approved. The implementa- tion is expected to occur in the summer of 1987 and all funds are anticipated to be provided by the Coastal Conservancy. The District will be obligated to operate and maintain the portion of the project located on District land. B. Signs New or Revised Use and Management Recommendations 1. If the Coastal Conservancy Grant is awarded, new trail and par- king area signs will be needed following construction of the trail. Cost is estimated at $350, and funding will be included in fiscal year 1987-1988 budget preparation. Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area I. Site Description Use of the 54 acre Nature Study Area has increased since the last review. The site continues to receive use from individual and local birdwatcher groups and with construction of large office buildings along Stierlin Road, is a popular noon-time walking and running area. Activities at Mountain View Shoreline Park over the past two years have concentrated in the main gate area. The amphitheatre, located on the west side of the main gate, was recently completed and now helps at- tract large numbers of visitors to the park. To accommodate the in- creased parking needs of the amphitheatre, a large overflow parking area was constructed on the east side of the main gate. The parking area extends from the main drive into the park easterly to the edge of the wildlife refuge area. Although the parking in this overflow lot is currently reserved for amphitheatre use, future development of a conference center in this area of the park will incorporate public par- king which will increase the accessibility to the District 's Nature Study Area. In addition, Crittenden Lane has been partially improved and parking is available curbside on this road. At the time of the last review, it was uncertain whether illegal dumping was occurring along the northeastern and southeastern boundary of the R-86-55 Page 4 Nature Study Area. Both areas have since been cleaned up and the problem no longer exists. II . Planning Considerations A. Access and Circulation Until completion of the conference center and associated parking facilities at Shoreline, access is available from the golf club- house parking area and South Bay Trail along the northerly Shore- line boundary and Crittenden Lane. There is also parking for approximately four vehicles immediately inside the main gate to Shoreline. From this parking area, an easterly trek across the amphitheatre overflow parking area will bring visitors to Shore- line 's wildlife refuge area and the bridge leading to the Dis- trict 's levee. Neither of these routes are signed. B. Signing A sign explaining Leslie Salt and Peninsula Open Space Trust 's role in the preservation of the study area was installed. C. Brochure Artwork for the cover of a folded brochure has been prepared. The remainder of the brochure will be completed this year. D. Natural Resources and A2ricultural -Mana2ement The drainage channel which was excavated along the southern and western boundary of the Preserve has been filled and has since naturalized with grasses . New and Revised Use and Management Recommendations 1. Staff will monitor plans for the proposed conference center and will respond to potential impacts this development may have on the Preserve and proposed South Bay Trail. 2. A drain has been found along the southern boundary of the property which appears to originate in the agricultural lease area of Moffett Field. The State Water Resources Control Board was notified and staff should now follow up with Moffett Field to determine the source of the drain.

Britton, Assistant General Manager RESPONSIBILITY AND PREPARATION: D. Hansen, Land Manager; D. Woods , Open Space Planner; A. Cummings , Environmental Analyst SUBJECT: Request to Support the San Mateo County Access Grant Application to the California Coastal Conservancy Recommendation: I recommend that you approve the construction by the County of San Mateo of trails and other public access amenities on the District 's San Mateo Baylands Reserve and that you support by approval of the attached Resolution the County of San Mateo Parks and Recreation Department 's Access Grant application to the California Coastal Conservancy to complete these improvements. Introduction: The County of San Mateo Parks and Recreation Department has submitted an Access Grant application in the amount of $495 ,226 to the Cali- fornia Coastal Conservancy for the construction of a portion of the Bay- lands Bicycle Trail and other trail and access amenities on District and private lands within the City of East Palo Alto. This is a cooperative pro- ject between the District and the County. The District has prepared the grant application and will aid in conducting negotiations, if necessary, for the easements over the private lands, while the County will prepare the design and construction documents, all CEQA materials, and administer the construction contracts. The County will also assume maintenance of the bicycle path between Runnymede Street and Bay Road. The District will be responsible for maintenance and patrol of the outer foot trail portions of the project within the San Mateo Baylands Open Space Reserve. This also includes the proposed parking area next to Bay Road and a bridge across the slough north of Bay Road. These proposed improvements are included in the previous agenda item relating to the Use and Management Plan for the San Mateo Baylands Reserve. This grant application is the first phase of a three phased project to pro- vide better public access to the District 's Baylands Reserve and connect the gap in the South Bay Trail between Palo Alto 's Baylands and the Dumbarton Bridge trail system. Staff has had preliminary discussions with representatives of the City of East Palo Alto, and it appears from those discussions that the project will not affect the City's plans in this area. A resolution of support for the project will be sought from the City. A detailed description of the project follows, .� .9tate df j t j t' Califonu 'O : iiiri-i� iliiiiriiiirTiirur��f o 'o �t /EXISTING TRAIL n ••� 00 Sibst �:`•__'.-- \\ \ /!c ♦ Salt •.•. r•. ..� SALTSalt PROPOSED TRAIL PHASE 3 / ::-•: ::••; ���\ � �� � // // \\ ,/•M ':eixy:C;co�:off:.;•.•.:':� EVAPORATORSOP 'r l 19,at,k r_ in Imo,,/ i', �/ Salt City San FYancis� Tj Tity s Co. of San Francisco p / A PROPOSED TRAIL , �� �,.r"'i r ' • ;y': State of PHASE 2 // •,' s;�tce'• malty s 01). !

The proposed"three-phase plan represents a major portion of the - South Bay Trail which ultimately will encircle the south end of the Bay, linking regional parks, open space Iaods, and trail corridors. By completing this critical link, the regional access point at the Dumbarton Bridge will be connected with the District's San Mateo Baylands, the Palo Alto Baylands, Mountain View's Shoreline Park, and the District's Stevens Creek Shoreline Nature Study Area, as well as the National Wildlife Refuge land$ on both the east and west sides of the Bay. . The project is divided into three phases because of anticipated difficulties and resulting delays in acquiring'',parts of the trail route. Phase I, which is antici- pated for funding under this grant application,' would consist of the construction of a bicycle/pedestrian trail from Palo Alto's Baylands Trail, which now ends at Runnymede Street in East Palo Alto, to Bay Road. A trail loop for.hikers would continue around the perimeter '',of the District's San Mateo Baylands Open Space Pre- serve salt pond just north of ,Bay Road. The project would be an extension of the Baylands Bicycle Trail from Son Francisquito Creek to Runnymede Street, built by the City of Palo Alto and funded by the Coastal Conservancy in 1983. Also included would be* a parking area on Bay Road opposite .the salt pond and a bridge from Bay Road to the salt pond levee. The grant application for this phase is prepared jointly by the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District and San Mateo County Parks and Recreation Division and, If funded, would be implemented by County of San Mateo. Phase II would continue the bicycle path north from Bay Road to'- connect with the . CalTrans bicycle path on University Avenue and the Dumbarton. Bridge. The hiking trail constructed in Phase I on the western salt pond levee would be surfaced with cape seal, to match the surface°of the preceeding section of trail to Bay Road. This surfaced path would continue via a boardwalk to the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way, and to lands owned by the City of San Francisco. It is possible that the adjacent Lucky Acres subdivision will be developed during Phase II. This 29 acre site has 16 acres of tidal picklecaeed marsh and open water channels. Although this property is now changing hands and may.be less extensively' developed than previously proposed, the Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) will require some public access improvements in connection with any. develop- ment. The public access improvements required by BCDC for the previous development proposal included an all-weather surfaced path along the entire 1050 foot Bay shore- line of the project site, and two boardwalks. One 180'x6' boardwalk was to connect the proposed Shoreline Trail with the bicycle path proposed on the District's salt pond levee, while the other small 6'x6' boardwalk would bridge the Stevens Avenue ditch to a .5 acre public access area at the foot of Stevens Avenue. A Stevens Avenue connection would provide additional. residential access to the pro- Posed bicycle path and Cooley Landing area. Since such a connection is likely to be required by BCDC in connection with development of the Lucky Acres site, this project proposes no connection to Stevens Avenue at this time. Phase III would complete the Loop between the Dumbarton Bridge and Cooley Landing. It would consist of the construction of an outboard bayside multipurpose path, from the Dumbarton Bridge fishing pier to Cooley Landing. This is '-he most direct route between Cooley Landingand the Bridge and has the advantage of being on a levee directlyadjacent to the B - J ay. No other � r South Bay Trail segments front directly on the Bay. The District owri's most of 'the levee along this route with the exception of the Southern Pacific and Hetch Hetchy aqueduct rights-of-way which the trail would have to cross. While these trails are being constructed, the planning of the development of Cooley Landing by East Palo Alto as a local and regional recreation area is expected to take place. Thus the trail system will eventually provide a variety of recreational routes for users of Cooley Landing as well as connections with other public lands. Construction of the trails may provide additional impetus for Cooley Landing planning... Detailed Description of Phase I 1) Runnymede Street to Bay Road (2,500 L.P.) This section is part of the adopted Trails and Pathways Plan of Santa Clara. County and the Palo Alto Baylands Master Plan. It lies within the City of East Palo Alto which has given its informal approval. The County of San Mateo Board of Supervisors has also approved the plan and has directed the Department of Parks and Recreation to take the lead role in implementation. The bicycle trail will follow the existing levee. It will be constructed of 8 foot wide cape seal surfacing on a 10 foot wide aggregate base underlain by 6 inches of lime treatment and 12 inches of fill. The lime treatment will increase the cross sectional strength of the weak clayey soil. The fill will widen the levee sufficiently to permit an 8 foot wide trail with an additional one foot of graded area on each side. San Mateo County has a 15 foot wide levee easement granted by the City of Palo Alto for the area at the toe of the levee but a great portion of the levee is still owned by four private owners. Acquiring an additional 25 foot easement (including the 10 foot top and 15 foot inboard side of the levee) will give suf- ficient width for levee enlargement and trail construction. The area inboard of the levee near Bay Road would be planted with native shrubs such as coyote bush to screen the trail from the automobile wrecking yards on Bay Road. A parking area for 12 to 15 cars would be constructed on District land alongside Bay Road, further east towards Cooley Landing, to separate parking from the wrecking yards but still keep it close to the trail. The parking area would include two handicapped parking spaces and a surfaced "whole access" path from the parking lot to the trail crossing. The flatness of the levees makes the proposed trail ideal for wheelchair access. 2) Hiking Trail Loop Around District Salt Pond The hiking trail loos will begin on the north side of Bay Road. It will cross the slough around the District's salt pond by means of a 70 foot by 10 foot pre- fabricated bridge. This bridge would permit trail access by light Ranger vehi- cles for patrol purposes and maintenance purposes. The trail would continue along the levee around the perimeter of the salt pond back to Cooley Landing. A boardwalk is needed in the northeastern corner to cross the inlet pond area. Specifications for the hiking trail loop include: a 6 inch aggregate base, 8 feet (rather than 10 feet) wide, underlain by 6 inches of lime treatment, but with no cape seal Qn top. The section of trail along the western levee of the District's salt pond is part of the San Mateo Bicycle Trail plan. Plantings would.:ba made to screen the trail from the adjoining industrial area. The planting costs include:provisions for soil amendments and watering during the first year. k I Departxi.ent of Envirc tiertt;:-d N1ati cLgeniei.l.t, BOARD OF SUPERVISORS flarks and itecreat.ic>n Division ANNA G.

R-86-53 J (Meeting 86-18 July 23, 1986) MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT July 15, 1986 To : Board of Directors From : Nonette Hanko Subject : Public Notification Policies. . .1. neighbor notification of land acquisition, 2. suggestions regarding elimination of preserve lists Dear Colleagues : As a result of the concerns expressed to us at our meeting of July 9 by neighbors of the former Dyer property, and by neighbors of other preserves over recent months , I would like to re-introduce an amendment to our Public Notification Policies procedure (see attached document #1, section l.b ). I am addressing this in my letter to you as item 1. Neighbor notification. A related issue was raised by our general manager and is addressed in a memorandum dated July 11 ( see attached ) which con- tains his own recommendations. I think his suggestions deserve the Board's consideration as a separate item, and so have responded to them in item 2._Suggestions regarding elimination of preserve lists. 1. Neighbor notification of land acquisition Present Board policy calls for notification of neighbors only after land is acquired by the District. This procedure overlooks both the Board's and neighbors' needs to communicate our mutual concerns. Once land is acquired by the District, present policy introduces the public and neighbors of land acquired into the planning process by -way-of neighborhood meetings , and/or office or field workshops, established either at staff discretion or by Board direction. In addition, final adoptions by the Board of use and management plans and reviews of such plans are delayed for the benefit of further public input. (see attached document #2 , section V ). I would like to suggest that the Board and staff would have a better sense of public and neighborhood interest in whether or not a workshop is needed in individual acquisitions, if our policies were amended to advise both the public and neighbors at the time the land is acquired. I July 15, 1986 page 2 N. Hanko Public Notification Therefore, I would like to make the following amendment Public Notification Policies 1. Land Acquisition 1� delete( After close of escrow for purchase of a parcel and before second reading of interim use and management plan, ) retain Noti- fication of owners of properties contiguous to parcel to advise of acquisition and of opportunity to be placed on mailing list for notifi- cation of preserve land use and management planning matters. A further refinement of the above language would include notification to neighbors sharing a private road that would access the parcel. And a further refinement regarding the mailing list brings us to item2:. 2 . Suggestions regarding elimination of preserve lists After discussing some of Herb's ideas with Kings Mountain Association representative, Kathy Kennedy-Miller, I think the consol- idation of the special preserve lists is a good idea; even though the resulting new list of persons will be receiving more information than they originally asked for. The consolidated list of persons would be added to the list receiving our agendas regularly. A nominal charge to off-set cost of postage ( $5-$10 a year ) also seems reasonable. This new policy would help those persons who weren't sure which preserve list to sign up for, and also in the cases of acquisi- tion or planning for new preserves for which no list has yet been es- tablished. However, I believe that certain lists ( notably the Dog Committee ) should remain separate because of the special subject interest. There may be others ( non preserve ) that still need special treatment. Therefore , I'll recommend as follows The staff be directed to return to the Board with a plan for consolidation of special preserve lists , and recommended treatment of other public notification lists.

In order to provide for responsible land management that will allow for and accommodate these concerns while ensuring the continued preservation of natural resources, the following planning process has been established. I. Pre-acquisition Report - In this phase the major issues related to a specific proposed acquisition are addressed. In addition, interim use and management recommendations are made to govern use and management of a site until it can become incorporated into -the. .ongoing planning for the open space preserve area within which the property is located. Interim use and management recom- mendations will generally maintain the "status quo" unless specific factors must be addressed because of deleterious impact on the site or safety hazards which should be mitigated. In cases where hazards require attention immediately, a schedule for mitigation will be included. In the case of a structure which is not to be disposed of immediately, a timeline will be established for return to the Board for the next decision point. The interim period will be used as necessary for Board and staff members to familiarize themselves with the structure. Pre- acquisition reports generally contain information in the following categories: A. Description of the Site - Physical Setting, Natural Resources, and Cultural History B. Current Use and Development C. Planning Considerations - Relationship to Existing and Proposed Plans D. Potential Use and Management (potential categories of structure use from the Policies Regarding Im- provements on District Land will be given. ) E. Interim Use and Management Recommendations (including cost esti- mates and timeline for return to the Board for next step in determi- nation of disposition o any structures.) F.� Recommendat ion Dedication Pursuant Section 5540 of the Public Resources Code and Resolution 79-12 of MROSD G. Naming (Optional) ' H. Purchase Terris for the Acquisition Being ConsideredI I. Public Review - Recommendation for tentative adoption of interimd use an management me ge nt proposals to allow for public comment prior to final adoption - normally within two weeks after escrow has closed. (See Section V - Public Review) IZ. Initial Use and Management Plans for Open Space Preserve Generally, use and management plans for new acquisitions gill address the site as it relates to the larger surrounding planning area and consider both short and long range plans for the site. The plan will be prepared coincidentally with the review of all other District lands within that open space preserve planning area. However, if the time frame between the acquisition of a given site and the review for that open space preserve is particularly long, or there are other factors which give the particular site a high priority, a use and management plan may be prepared for the new addition ahead of the scheduled review of that planning area. In' particular, decisions regarding the disposition of structures (e.g. , use, sale, or demolition) may come early. If the planning process is advanced, public participation would be encouraged to help formulate use and management recommendations (see Section V - Public Review) . The use and management planning process generally examines-the .following factors: A. Site Description - Physical Setting, Natural Resources, Cultural History, and Existing Usage Patterns B. Planning Considerations - Comprehensive Analysis C. Use and Management Recommendations 1) Access and Circulation a) Parking b) Trails 2) Signing 3) Brochures (in accordance with publicity policy) 4) Structures and Improvements (including timeline to return to the Board for next decision point) 5) Natural Resource Management 6) Visitor and Site Protection (including mutual aid experience) 7) Cost Analysis D. Compliance with CEQA Requirements E. Design Review Immunity F. Dedication Status (additionally, once a year in January all lands are reviewed as to dedication status) G. naming H. Public Review (see Section V - Public Review) •''- `' Page three III . Review of Use and Management Plans All site use and management plans will be reviewed periodically. The format for these reviews• is outlined for initial use =and management plans in Section II . The use and management plan review schedule will relate to the proposed activities in the annual review of the Plan for Relative Emphasis of District Sites. The preserves •which receive rnore use and are more highly emphasized are more apt to be reviewed annually than those sites which are considered less emphasized; however, every site will be reviewed within a two year period. The schedule will be incorporated into the review of the Plan for Relative Emphasis of District Sites and be presented to the Board for consideration each November. Major issues relating to the sites not scheduled for the following year will be presented to the Board in the form of an oral report at the same November meeting. IV. Open Space Planning Areas District preserves are divided into ten ecologically and geo- graphically coherent open space preserve planning areas. This process facilitates comprehensive land use planning and manage- ment. Use and management plans and reviews for individual sites within each planning area are prepared simultaneously for com- parison of overall policies and long range goals. Within the framework of the Policies for Relative Emphasis of Use, Develop- ment, and Publicity of District Sites, use and management guide- lines are formulated for each planning area. Use and management plans for individual sites will deal with specific recommendations required to accommodate these guidelines. New acquisitions will be incorporated into existing planning areas and considered during this process. V. Public Review The use and management planning process will provide for and encourage public participation in the form of: 1) public meetings held in the office or field, as appropriate, to assist in formulation of use and management recommendations and 2) public review periods for all proposed land use issues and proposals. Public meetings in the form of workshops to solicit input relating to use and management of existing preserves will be held at staff ' s discretion (unless Board explicitly calls for such workshops) . Generally these meetings will be conduct6d when a significant change in land use is anticipated or public interest is evident. These meetings may occur at various times of the year, but in most cases, would be held prior to an initial use and management plan or review. The public workshops will be announced in accordance with the public notification procedures. In addition, when existing structures may be an issue, a special effort will be made to solicit participation of all individuals or groups which could foreseeably have an interest in utilizing the structures, in a manner considered compatible with District land use policy. The initial period after acquisition will be used by Board and staff to help determine the degree to which parti- cipation should be solicited., since each structure, its condition, compatibility with the preserve, etc. represents a unique situation. rage lour In addition, G in accordance with the Public Notification Policies, a period of time for public comment will follow the initial presenta- tion to the Board of all land use actions and reviews, including interim recommendations contained in acquisition reports; initial use and management plans, and reviews of plans (except for hazard mitiga � tion or other serious problems) and annual reviews of the Plan for C, Relative Emphasis of District Sites (including scheduling of use and management plan reviews) .. Consideration for final approval of all land use recommendations will normally occur at the next regular Board meeting (or within two weeks after escrow has closed in the case of interim use and management plans) .

MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL©PEN SPACE DISTRICT MEMORANDUM July 11, 1986 TO: Nonette Hanko, Director FROM: H. Grench, General Manager SUBJECT: Public Notification Procedures Here are my initial thoughts regarding possible changes in procedures. I plan to discuss the notification procedures with management staff again prior to the July 23 Board meeting to see if we might have any other sugges- tions. (1) Notification of neighbors to a site at the time the acquisition deci- sion is on the agenda -- We have been notifying persons on the list for the that reserve p t t contains the proposed acquisition parcel at the time the acquisition decision is first on the Board's agenda and thereafter. The neighbors contiguous to the site are notified immediately after close of escrow and before the second reading of the Interim Use and Management Plan. When the policies were formu- lated by the Board, emphasis was placed on bringing the neighboring landowners and persons with a special interest into the planning process for the site. A second reading after close of escrow was added to the planning process before final Board approval of the Interim Use and Management Plan was given so that we could get more public input before final decisions were made on the Interim Plan. (2) Special preserve lists -- Staff maintains lists for each preserve of people who have asked to be notified of District site use planning for a particular area. In addition, there are lists for special topics, for example, "dogs" . There are currently 21 site lists and 9 special lists. Maintaining these lists has become an administra- tive headache for staff. Some of the problems are as follows : (a) persons who get on one preserve list but don't get notified because the acquisition in which they are interested is in another preserve. (b) persons who sign up because of a certain issue and then keep getting mailings in which they are no longer interested. I had been about to implement a nominal $1 or $2 annual fee for being on a list in order to cull out the lists and keep them current with truly interested parties, but I have held off be- cause public notification issues have been with us again for the last year. (c) human error on staff's part arising from the complexity of the system. (d) since we do more notification by topic than- any public agency I know of, we are more subject to dissatisfaction when the system doesn't work right. Public Notification Proc ares July 11 , 1986 Page two (e) occasional difficulty in deciding whether the item is a site use planning matter. (f) the time it takes to do list mailings as an added item to agenda, minutes , and packet mailings. The solution I recommend that the Board consider is that we discontinue most special lists and simply suggest to people that they subscribe to the agendas (currently $10 a year) . It would be cost effective even to reduce this fee (which doesn't- cover total- costs now) if most of the lists could be eliminated.. Neighbors can be notified at the time of the first and/or second readings and informed that they can subscribe to the agendas to keep abreast of activities. That way people can be informed of all agenda items and become. involved in those in which they are sufficiently interested. People may even become more generally involved in District issues and more often see their areas of concern in the context of the District' s overall program. 1(.

A list of successful projects is enclosed. This project is one of the 33 successful applications to which the second-year allocation of $3 million was distributed. In order for the available funds to be disbursed as widely and as equitably as possible, most grant awards were for less than the amounts requested. If you will require further funds to complete your project, you may apply for r consideration under the third year ($3 million) of program funding. The application deadline is October 1, 1986. All applications will be ranked competitively statewide with others received. We encourage you to continue seeking support from additional funding sources for the remaining work. The enclosed Acceptance of Allocation form must be signed by the person authorized in your resolution to sign documents for this project and returned to the Office of Historic Preservation as soon as possible.
