Rd. - Skyline Blvd. intersection is for sale by Fox & Carskadon. It is of utmost importance that this property is not developed, a beautiful meadow in the Skyline Scenic Corridor where grazing deer and other wildlife can be seen regularly, it must be pre- served for future generations. It is surrounded by Huddart Park on two sides, and Skyline Trail, which connects to Wunderlich Park, follows the entire length of this property, the view of this meadow being one of the high marks of this trail section. This property also is of historical interest, the Kings, after whom the mountain and the road are named, settled here since 1868, and this meadow has been farmed for generations. It is essential that this property comes into the public domain rapidly, to preserve it, and to prevent intermediate sales that may further escalate the cost. We therefore urge the MROSD to take quick and decisive action in this matter. Pamela Shaffer Douglas 1950 Kings Mtn.

Douglas : The District ' s Board of Directors received your letter of February 22 , 1990 regarding the property at the northeast corner of Kings Mountain Road and Skyline Boulevard in San Mateo County that is currently listed for sale. This property actually adjoins the County of San Mateo ' s Huddart Park and at one time was included in their master plan for potential acquisition. The property would also make a fine trail head location for the planned Bay Area Ridge Trail which will pass through this area. The District is extremely interested in preserving the integrity and 'beauty of the Skyline Scenic Corridor, but it appears that the County of San Mateo is the most appropriate agency to consider the protection of this area and by copy of this letter we will so advise the County. You can be assured that the District is concerned about the beauty and natural environment of this area and will continue to take an active interest in preservation of this property. Thank you for your interest in the District and its open space program.

I don't know the circumstances but I have heard of similar incidents on Mt Tamalpais and surroundings. What moves me to write to you about this, is that laws that prohibit access after sunset were instituted for the same reason that Palo Alto has such a law for Eleanor Cogswell Park, a small piece of grass in downtown Palo Alto. These laws furnished a legal means for preventing squatters from taking up residence. This problem arose in the late 1960 's and 1970 ' s. To use such an ordinance against the age old custom of going to the top of a mountain at full moon is a miscarriage of justice. I myself have in the past taken full moon rides up Monte Bello, Mt Tamalpais, Mt Hamilton and Windy Hill. I am sure that there are plenty of explanations for this heavy handed action by rangers, but I don't believe there is a valid excuse for it. I also believe that had these been hikers, they would have, at most, received a warning but certainly not a $250 citation. Please review your access policy and find a way to make entering the open space preserves after dark a legal and proper use. I have been on Audubon outings after dusk to observe owls, bats and other wildlife. It occurs to me that this is not possible under these rules. Also, the posting of aplicable fines, although I think embarrassing to the district, would give the public some idea with whom they must contend. Sincerely, obst Brandt 351 Middlefield Rd.

The District regulation closing the preserves one-half.-hour after sunset is consistent with other local agencies managing hands similar to the lands of the District . It is the District ' s responsibility to provide for the safe public use of open space lands . Given the remote and rugged nature of District lands , safe use could not be responsibly provided after hours . District ranger staff is also limited in size and not adequate to manage expanded and open after hours use . Closely supervised docent-led night hikes are offered periodically throughout the year creating opportunities to experience the preserves after hours . Please contact Joyce Nicholas at (415) 949-5500 for more information on this . In addition the Black Mountain campground is available on Monte Bello Open Space Preserve for overnight use . For staff to manage responsibly the District lands , violations of District ordinances that impact the safe use of the preserves are must be taken seriously. Visitors that enter signed District lands after hours are routinely issued citations . Bicyclists and hikers are issued citations under the same ordinance code section. Many more hikers are cited each year than bicyclists . The fines assessed for a violation of a District ordinance is determined by the municipal court of each county. District staff recommended reduction of the $250 fine several months ago to the local county clerk as we felt it was too stringent in relation to other ordinance fines . However, I understand there is a lengthy review process for changes in fine amount . In any case , the fine will remain substantial .

Final adoption of the Action Plan will be one of the agenda items at your March 28 meeting. Discussion: You adopted the proposed Preliminary 1990-1991 Action Plan at your December 20 meeting (see reports R-89-163 dated November 29 , 1990 and R-89-169 dated December 12 , 1989) . The following changes are proposed in the Action Plan based on actions you took at the December 20 meeting and discussions occurring during staff ' s 1990-1991 budget preparation and the Budget Committee review process : 1 . Omen Space Management -Prog-ram a. In the Planning, Design, and Development Subprogram, the first other typical project and activity under site development projects has been amended to read "Public access improvement at Skyline Ridge and Windy Hill Open Space Preserves" . Due to budget constraints , funding for the public access improvements at Sierra Azul and Pulgas Ridge Open Space Preserves has not been included in the 1990-1991 proposed budget . b. In the Operations , Maintenance , and Volunteer Subprogram, an other typical project and activity in the maintenance category that read "Oversee Russian Ridge grazing and other agricultural leases" has been deleted due to the difficulty in finding a suitable grazing tenant for the Russian Ridge Open Space Preserve . Other agricultural leases are normally operated under the Enterprise Subprogram. R-90-31 Page two C . In the staffing section of the Operations , Maintenance , and Volunteer Subprogram, the number of new ranger positions has dropped from two to one , bringing the total number of ranger positions for the 1990-1991 fiscal year to ten. Staff is now requesting that one new regular , full-time open space technician position be added during the 1990-1991 fiscal year and that two, rather than three , seasonal open space technician positions be added. These changes bring the total number of regular, full- time open space technicians to seven and the number of seasonal open space technicians to five . 2 . Communvications Pro ram a . In the Media Relations Subprogram, the key project and activity concerning publicizing the 1990 International Open Space Conference has been expanded to include publicizing the potential new south county open space agency. 3 . General--Management _and Program Support a. The project and activity stating "Promote and enhance a work atmosphere conducive to generating a creative team staff effort , including increased staff communications , and active staff involvement and participation in the 1990 International Open Space Conference" has been moved to key projects and activities from other typical projects and activities . b. A new other typical project and activity has been added stating "Coordinate a November Board workshop focusing on Board formulation of priorities for District activities during the 1991-1992 fiscal year. " There are no changes proposed in Open Space Acquisition Program' s Action Plan. l Page three I i i i i PROPOSED REVISED ACTION PLAN FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BASIC POLICY OF THE MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT FOR THE 1990-1991 FISCAL YEAR I.

W MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT R-90-32 (Meeting 90-06 March 14 , 1990) REPORT March 8 , 1990 TO: Board of Directors FROM: H. Grench, General Manager CONTRIBUTORS: J. Fiddes , Administrative Services Manager; C. Britton, Land Acquisition Manager; D. Hansen , Land Manager; M. Hale , Public Communications Coordinator SUBJECT: Presentation of Proposed Budget for Fiscal Year 1990-1991 Recommended Action: No action is being requested of you at this time . The ---------- proposed budget for 1990-1991 will be presented again at your March 28 meeting, and at that time, I will recommend that you adopt the budget for the new fiscal year. Overview: As one reviews the proposed Action Plan and budget for the 1990- 1991 fiscal year , several items must be taken into consideration. First , and very importantly, my long-term staffing plan for the District may require additional funding, primarily in the salary and benefits category. Assuming you approve a plan, the budget adopted at the end of March would need to be amended to include staffing changes approved for the 1990-1991 fiscal year . In addition, even though the budget you adopt at your next meeting will have funding included for potential salary range adjustments for employees not represented by Local 715 , it will , in all likelihood, not be possible to project and include potential salary adjustments for the rangers and open space technicians . I do not believe that final agreement on salaries and benefits for these two represented classes will be reached by April 1 , the start of our new fiscal year . If one allocates the $8 , 640 , 000 in projected tax revenues and subventions to $4 , 638 , 000 of debt service and $2 , 319 , 000 (net) budgeted for Open Space Management, there is relatively little left for other operating expenses and cash for new land acquisitions . The District now essentially funds land purchases by issuance of new debt and by grants . Although I feel that Open Space Management ' s proposed budget is a responsible one for the 1990-1991 fiscal year, it ' s straining the upper limits of the Open Space Budget Guidelines that you adopted only two years * ago. R-90-32 Page Two The following three piecharts illustrate sources of District funding , how budgeted expenditures , including debt service , are distributed among major program groupings , and how budgeted expenditures , excluding debt service , are distributed. 71 Ts i 9 -T 2:7%1 iNTEPE5 1 ENTERPRISE ACTIvITIES (1 PPOPE TY 7A'---, i2.8 4%) -Je SALE 10.

This report presents the April 1 , 1990 through March 31 , 1991 fiscal year budget for your consideration. Staff will review the proposed budget at your March 14 meeting; the budget will be presented to you again at your March 28 meeting at which time formal adoption will be requested. The proposed budget in this report does not yet include any funds allocated for compensation changes for Board appointees , salary range adjustment figures for General Manager appointees , or any corresponding retirement benefit cost increases . Benefit figures included in the proposed budget should be considered "guesstimates" since new premium rates are not known at this time . Once the rates are known, the Board will need to consider the base premium rate coverage it wants to set for employees ' medical , dental , and life insurance coverage. The proposed budget was prepared in a manner similar to that of previous years . Based on the Preliminary Action Plan that you adopted at your December 20 , 1989 meeting , staff determined projected expenditures for the various District projects and programs . The 1990-1991 Action Plan will also be presented at the March 14 meeting for tentative adoption. The Budget Committee , composed for Directors Duffy (Treasurer) , Crowder, and McKibbin reviewed the proposed budget on a program basis during a series of open, publicly-noticed Budget Committee meetings . This review included studying the proposed budgets by project expense groupings , as R-90-32 Page Four well as reviewing sub-accounts for the line items included in the proposed budget . The attached Exhibit A entitled Summary -Comparison_9 f 1-9-9-0-1.9-911 Budget with 1989-1990 Budcret and Projected Expenditures summarizes various budget figures . The District ' s Controller reviewed the proposed budget material and met with the Budget Committee to discuss current budget vs . expenditures , projected revenues , cash flow, and debt service . He will be reporting to you on these items at the March 14 meeting (see accompanying report R-90-33 dated March 5 , 1990) . The four page summary of the proposed budget , entitled Preliminary Budget by Prcram and attached at the end of the discussion section of this report , before the colored pages , delineates expenditures for each category by major line item for each of the District ' s programs . An overview and explanation is detailed in the following sections : Discussion: 1 . Op_ep_S_pace cquisition P=rAm The program' s emphasis during 1990-1991 is to complete the remaining projects from the Proposition 70 proceeds . In addition, staff will focus on the careful expenditure of the new anticipated note proceeds for new open space acquisitions . Funds available for new land purchases are budgeted at $15 . 4 million. Of this , $1 . 86 million is to come from Proposition 70 funds ; $0 . 2 million from land purchase contract debt ; $3 . 5 million from the planned sale of the developable 70 acre area acquired as part of the Teague Hill Open Space Preserve purchase; and $9 . 9 million in net proceeds from a new anticipated note issue . During the 1989-1990 fiscal year , the District will have committed approximately $6 . 58 million in cash, plus $3 million in purchase contract debt , for new land purchases . . There is a 19% decrease in the proposed 1990-1991 budget compared with the 1989-1990 budget for fixed asset expenses directly related to land acquisition, such as appraisals , site engineering, escrow fees , title insurance, and legal fees . This decrease results primarily from expenditure experience in the areas of appraisals and legal fees relating to acquisition activity during 1989-1990 . The Open Space Acquisition budget includes $4 . 6 million in debt service for principal repayment and interest on the District ' s land contracts and note issues . Debt service accounts for 23% of the overall acquisition budget . Note paying agent fees for 1990-1991 are projected at $16 , 000 . Proposed 1990-1991 expenditures for the program., excluding funds budgeted for new land purchases , capitalized expenses related directly to land acquisitions , and debt service , total $309 , 425 . Salaries and benefits for the program' s four regular staff members represent 63% of this total . The Enterprise Subprogram' s proposed $78 , 200 budget represents 25% of the program' s budget , excluding funds budgeted for new land purchases , expenses related to land acquisitions , and debt service . Expenses for two major projects are included: $20, 000 to connect the former Bean house to a new EXHIBIT A SUMMARY COMPARISON OF 1990- 1 BUDGET WITH 1989-1990 BUDGET 0 PROJECTED EXPENDITURES ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 89/90 1 89/90 90/91 Adopted I Projected Proposed Budget I Expenses Budget., ------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ JOPEN SPACE ACQUISITION I ------------------------------ ------------- ------------------ ------------------ Salaries and Benefits 172,300 156,000 196,600 I------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ IServices and Supplies 124,650 129,765 145,825 ---------- --------------- ------- ------------------ IFixed Assets 6,130, 150 5,068,270 15,530,000 ------------------------------ ------------- --------- I --------- ------------- IDebt Service 10,352,684 10,410,519 4,637,917 I----------------------------- ------------- ------------------I------------------ Total 16,779,784 15.764,554 20,510,342 JOHN SPACE MANAGEMENT I------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------I------------------ ISalaries and Benefits 1,281 ,150 1,086, 150 1 1,402,400 I------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ IServices and Supplies 507,975 1� 516,055 545,515 I------------------------------ ------------------I------------------ ------------------ 'IFixp-.d Assets 1,069,300 1 1,210,670 634,200 ------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ Total 2,858,425 2,812,875 I 2,582,115 1COMMUNICATIONS I------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------- ------------------ Salaries and Benefits 79,300 75,650 1 86,900 1------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ,Services and Supplies 191,900 169,400 383,600 ------------------------------ ------------------ ------------------ ------------- IFixed Assets 1,800 700 800 I----------------------------- ------------------ ------------------ ------------------ I Total 273,000 1 245,750 471,300 ,GENERAL MANAGEMENT AND PROGRAM SUPPORT ------------------I----- ------------------------- ------------- ------------------ ISalaries and Benefits 334,850 1 323,670 371,200 I------------------------------ ------------------I------------------ ------------------ IServices and Supplies 212,800 228,550 309,450 ------------------------------ ------------------I------------------I------------------ lFixed Assets 59,250 1 31 ,300 1 ,948,100 I------------------------------ ------------------I------------------ ------------------ I Total 606,900 583,520 2,628,750 {ALL PROGRAMS I------------------------------ ------------- --------- ------------------ iSalaries and Benefits 1,867,600 j 1 ,641,470 2,057,100 i------------------------------I------------------I------------------ ------------------ !Services and Supplies 1 1,037,325 1,043,770 1 ,384,390 ------------------------------I------------------ ------------------ ------------------ IFixed Assets 7,260,500 6,310,940 18,113,100 --- ------------------------------I------------------ ------------------ ----- ----- IDebt Service 1 10,352,684 10,410,519 4,637,917 ------------------------------I------------------ ------------------ ------------------ Total 20,518, 109 19,406,699 26,192,507 R-90-32 Paae Five well as a result of the earthquake fracture of the aquifer and $8 , 000 for well , water system, and septic system repairs at Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve . FEMA will reimburse $16 , 000 of the expense at the former Bean house . The Enterprise Subprogram was underspent by approximately $10 , 900 or 18% in the services and supplies category in 1989-1990 , primarily due to work that still needs to be finished at the upper house at Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve . Income from the District ' s 23 residential leases (including seven ranger residences) , plus the five agricultural leases , eight communications leases , three historical leases , and the sublease of the new office headquarters on Distel Circle is projected at $409 , 000 in 1990-1991 , with $99 , 000 from the office building sublease . 2 . Q_p e n qge�m e n t Program 1_ The proposed 1990-1991 Open Space Management budget was developed for the second year under the guidelines of the revised Open Space Management Budget Policies . In addition, the Preliminary Action Plan, the Relative Site Emphasis Policies , and the five-year staffing plan were used to build the budget . The staffing plan is in its fifth year , and overall conformance has been remarkably close to projections . The principle focus of the budget again remains the completion of major grant-funded capital improvement projects . In addition, funding has been increased to augment public stewardship of District lands . There is significantly less outside funding included in the 1990-1991 proposed budget for major grant-funded development projects; this is the principal reason that the proposed overall gross budget figure is approximately $276 , 000 below the 1989-1990 budget . 89/90 89/90 90/91 1990/1991 PROPOSED BUDGET Adopted Projected Proposed OPEN SPACE MANAGEMENT BudgetSenses Budget TOTAL SALARIES & BENEFITS $ 1 , 281 , 150 $ 1 , 086 , 150 $ 1 , 402 , 400 TOTAL SERVICES & SUPPLIES $ 507 , 975 $ 516 , 055 $ 545, 515 TOTAL FIXED ASSETS 1 ,069 , 3-00 TOTAL BUDGET-ALL CATEGORIES $ 2 , 858 , 425 $ 2 , 812 , 875 $ 2 , 582 , 115 1989-1990 Budget The total projected expenditures for the 1989-1990 fiscal year are within $45, 550 of the adopted budget . Salaries and benefits will be underspent approximately $200 , 000 , primarily due to periods of vacancy in the secretary, operations supervisor, mechanic-equipment operator, and supervising ranger positions . In the services and supplies category, a major expenditure of $102 , 000 was made for planning consulting services for site visitor facility projects . You will recall also that a portion of the services and supplies budget category was transferred to fixed assets to help fund the radio equipment purchase last month. In the fixed assets portion of the 1989-1990 budget , over $1 , 100, 000 was spent on several significant site improvement projects . R-90-32 Page Six Major work included the completion of four parking lots , the Skyline Ridge trail , a tunnel under Alpine Road, and other amenities at the Skyline and Russian Ridge Open Space Preserves . The Black Mountain trail was rerouted and other trail work done at Pulgas Ridge, Long Ridge , Los Trancos , and other Open Space Preserves . A parking lot and major trail were also completed at the Thornewood Open Space Preserve.

Now, in the plan's fifth and final year, the following variances and proposed new positions are shown for the 1990-1991 budget in relation to the projections made five years ago.

Proposed new position in 1990-1991 Project Summary Sheets The project summary sheets (photocopied on colored paper and attached at the end of this budget report) show site-specific capital improvements and maintenance projects as they are reflected in the proposed Open Space Management budget. These sheets were reviewed in detail with the Budget Committee . Of interest at the bottom of each summary sheet are columns that show outside funding sources for the current and proposed budgets . In addition, positive and negative variance explanations are shown for the 1989-1990 budget. Major site projects for the 1990-1991 budget are then listed. Finally, contingency items are listed that are not actually R-!,-90-32 Page Nine included in the budget. Contingencies , which total $84 , 000 , are items for which funding may need to be approved at a later date for budget inclusion if certain circumstances , not resolved at this time, occur. Contingency projects include clean-up funds for El Corte de Madera Open Space Preserve , improvements to the bridge at Deer Hollow Farm, improvements at St . Joseph ' s Hill if the new college road is built , and an engineering study of the former Panighetti structures . Last year, wish list items were given showing items staff did not necessarily anticipate being able to complete during 1989-1990 due to other major budgeted priorities and due to the limits of staffing and outside consultant time to complete these projects . However, two of these wish list items are expected to be completed during the current fiscal year; they are the resealing of the driveway to the lower Rancho house and the preparation of detailed plans and specifications for the Grant house , both located at the Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve . Listed below are priority items that, due to budget guideline constraints , are not included in the proposed 1990-1991 budget , but are listed (similar to last year ' s wish list) for possible inclusion, if funding is available in other District program budgets or in the Open Space Management program itself . Increasing the Open Space Management budget over the guideline would obviously affect funding available for open space acquisition or would limit potential staffing additions in other District programs as may be recommended in the general manager ' s upcoming staffing plan. Although all these items are desirable , none seem sufficiently critical at this time to create exceptions to policy. "WISH LIST" ITEMS IN PRIORITY ORDER FOR FISCAL YEAR 1990-1991 1) Salaries and Benefits - one additional ranger position: $ 35, 600 2) Fixed Assets - ranger yard improvements : $100 , 000 (tentatively approved in Rancho San Antonio Use and Management Plan) 3) Fixed Assets - dump truck : $ 45, 000 4) Fixed Assets - one additional replacement patrol truck: $ 18 , 000 ADHERENCE TO OPEN SPACE MANAGEMENT BUDGET POLICIES The revised Open Space Management Budget Policies were adopted by the Board in 1988 (see report R-88-103 dated August 24 , 1988) . Those policies and a summary of how the 1990-1991 budget adheres to them is as follows : A) POLICY PRIORITIES 1 . First priority in allocating open Space Management budget shall be given to providing responsible public stewardship of District lands , including patrol , maintenance , visitor safety, basic site information to promote proper public use and enjoyment of the lands , resource restoration and protection, associated site planning, and Open Space Acquisition support .

At least 50% of funds which would ordinarily be provided by the District pursuant to paragraphs 1 , 2 , and 3, but are covered by grants will be used to increase funds for resource enhancement or protection, or for basic or extended visitor improvements , but not in each case necessarily for the same category covered by the grant. Adherence : All possible grants and other outside funding sources continue to be pursued for resource enhancement and basic and extended visitor improvements .

Adherence : The District ' s net cost of extended visitor improvements is $195, 250 . Most funds are available pursuant to Policy 6 as mentioned above . 8 ) P 0 1-i.c y--Ej_g t, In the event budget cuts are necessary, funding cuts would be made in each of the three priority areas for Open Space Management budget allocations . The priorities are intended to provide guidance in allocating any necessary budget cuts . Adherence : Budget was developed to comply with the guidelines . Refer to the section earlier in the report on wish list items . R-90-32 Page Thirteen 3 . Communications _ram The budget for the 1990 International Open Space Conference , estimated at $179 , 600 , is the single largest item in the Communications Program ' s proposed budget of $471 , 300 for 1990-1991 . This one-time expenditure will be almost entirely offset by registration income for the conference and by fund-raising revenues , as well as major contributions pledged by several organizations . District publications represent the second-largest item in the proposed budget, including these projects for a total of $144 , 500 : 1 . Visitor ' s Guide : $24 , 000 2 . Preserve Guides and Maps : $60 , 000 3 . Trail Courtesy Brochure: $5 , 000 4 . 9p_en __Space (2) issues , one of which is the annual report) : $35 , 000 5. Newsletter (2 issues) : $15, 500 6 . Master Plan: $5 , 000 The above printed items represent the District ' s basic informational materials that are distributed to the public , and, in the case of the preserve guides , distributed on site at the major preserves . Special projects are another major category of expenditures , totalling $18 , 700 . 1 . Coordinated graphic design: $3 , 000 2 . Displays : $500 3 . Public Events : $7 , 500 4 . Awareness Study: $1 , 000 5. Business Printing: $6 , 700 The coordinated graphic design and business printing items are related to costs associated with printing such items as the District ' s letterhead, envelopes , labels , purchase orders , business cards , etc . The public events category includes costs to conduct an event celebrating Earth Day 1990 , a major event to open Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve , and a meeting with Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Commission. The awareness study is a one-time expenditure to determine the location of public distribution places where District publications might be made available . Salaries and benefits for the department ' s two full-time staff total $86 , 900 . Ongoing services including $14 , 350 for legislative consulting services , subscriptions to Bay Area newspapers , postage, photographic supplies , office supplies , advertising expenses , and other expenses associated with the department ' s operations total $40 , 800 . Fixed assets , including office equipment and furniture , are estimated at $800 for 1990-1991 . The program' s proposed budget is about 73% greater than the program ' s 1989- 1990 budget ($273 , 000) , and approximately 92% greater than the program' s projected expenditures of $245 , 750 for 1989-1990 . If the $179 , 600 --- - ---------- R-90-32 Page Fourteen conference expense figure is subtracted from the proposed budget , the proposed budget for 1990-1991 represents a 7% increase over the 1989-1990 budget figure and a 19% increase over projected expenses for the 1989-1990 fiscal year. Except for expenses associated with the 1990 International Open Space Conference , there are no new projects budgeted for 1990-1991 . Because of the anticipated heavy workload connected with the conference, the communications staff will be giving its priority to the conference and to the production and printing of essential ongoing informational materials such as the preserve guides and maps and other publications . 4 . General Man4gement and Program _Su qrr Totaling $671 , 050 , the proposed 1990-1991 budget for General Management and Program Support includes $1 , 865 , 000 (71%) for the purchase of the office building at 330 Distel Circle; $92 , 700 for operating expenses and improvements for the Distel Circle building (4%) ; $371 , 100 (14%) for salaries and benefits; $266 , 750 (10%) for services and supplies ; and $33 , 100 (1%) for fixed asset items . The major single expenditure item (excluding expenses related to the new office building) is the District ' s office rental fees at the Old Mill Office Center. The rent for the coming year is $118 , 000 . Since Board room furniture and minor renovations will not be completed before the end of March, the proposed 1990-1991 budget again includes $26 , 100 for this project . The budget also allocates $38 , 500 for the director elections to be held in November and $13 , 500 to cover a portion of the District ' s various insurance premiums . The salary and benefits category includes your Board appointee ' salaries and benefits . In this same budget category, $33 , 600 is designated for Director ' s compensation and $11 , 500 for potential salary incentive awards for General Manager appointees . The following allocations are included in the services and supplies category of General Management and Program Support ' s proposed budget : $5 , 200 for the Board ' s staff , docent , and volunteer recognition activities; $200 for the office safety program. (an additional $900 is included in the Open Space Management Program budget for the safety program) ; and $400 for staff activities or events to he held during the year . We have identified a $5, 000 contingency item (not included in budget) for legal services . At this point , staff is unable to pinpoint exactly the extent of the District ' s labor negotiations with Local 715 and the degree of legal services that will be required. A duplicate amount was included in the proposed budget . 5. alar Incentive Awards The policies for Use of Salary Incentive Awards that the Board adopted on June 22 , 1983 state : R-90-32 Page Fifteen The Board ' s Budget Committee will audit the incentive award program for compliance with the policies herein, will approve budget for the program on behalf of the Board, but will not be involved in approving incentive amounts for specific General Manager appointees . From time to time , the Budget Committee may recommend increases or decreases in the amount of incentive funds available to be used by the General Manager . I reviewed the salary incentive program with the Budget Committee at their March 1 meeting. Discussion included the number of General Manager appointees who might be eligible for salary incentive awards during the coming fiscal year and the estimated cost of the program. A total of $11 , 500 has been included for these possible awards . If the program criteria are changed during the fiscal year to broaden the program, additional funds may be required. / � � � � --- -- -- --'----- -- -------- ------- --) / Nl8PEN0NNLA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DIS|k{CT (a) 1 PRELIMINARY BUDGET BY PRV0kkN 1V8O-1881 (Dollars) | |--------------------------------------------------------------i ) | | Open Space | 0�mn Space | Communications | General Management | TOTALS | | ) ' ' ' ' ' ' ' | |8odoet Category | Acquisition Program | Management Program !

Foster , Controller SUBJECT: Controller ' s Report on the Proposed Fiscal Year 1990-1991 Budget The following cash flow projection shows the impact of the proposed fiscal year 1990-1991 budget on the District ' s cash position . The District will begin the new fiscal year with estimated cash balances totalling $7 . 7 million. Together with anticipated revenues and the proceeds from planned debt issues , this cash position is adequate to cover debt service , operating expenses , site development , purchase of a new headquarters building, year-end reserve requirements , and $15 . 4 million for new land acquisition. As shown in the attached monthly cash flow projection , no mid-year cash deficiency is expected. ANNUAL CASH FLOW PROJECTION FISCAL YEAR 1990-1991 ( *Thousands)- Beginning Cash Balance $ 7 , 718 Plus : Tax Revenue 8 , 640 Grant Income 2 , 728 Sale of Land 3 , 500 Interest Income 800 Rental Income 409 Other Income Total Income $ 16 , 437 Net Proceeds from Debt Issues Total Income and Financing $ 29 , 912 Minus : Debt Service $ 4 , 638 Operating Expense/Site Development 4 , 250 Building Purchase 1 , 8655 Land Purchases Total Expenditures $--- _26 , 193, Ending Cash Balance $ 11 , 437 Income 1) Tax Revenue is estimated at $8 . 64 million (70% from Santa Clara County and 30% from San Mateo County) . This assumes overall property tax increases in the 1990-1991 tax year of 9 . 3% and 7 . 9% from San Mateo and Santa Clara counties , respectively . Since these estimated increases are 1 . 3 percentage points less than the actual rate of increase experienced in the 1989-1990 tax year , it is very possible that revenue will exceed budget . 2) Grant Income is projected at $2 . 73 million - $2 . 45 million for land acquisition and $283 , 000 for site development . The largest source of anticipated grant income , $1 . 86 million, is Proposition 70 funds . 3 ) Sale of Land: The budget assumes that the planned sale of the developable portion of the Teague Hill Open Space Preserve will be accomplished this year , with net proceeds of $3 . 5 million. 4) Interest Income is budgeted at $800 , 000 . This assumes that long-tern, notes are issued in September , and an average investment rate of 9% on discretionary funds . 5) Rental Income is projected at $409 , 000 - $310 , 000 from rental of existing properties and $99 , 000 from sublease of the new headquarters building. 6) Other- - - -Income- - is estimated at $360 , 000 , including $180 , 000 in fees and fund-raising associated with the International. Open Space Conference and $113 , 000 from the Town of Portola Valley. Debt Capacity and Planned Debt Issues At the end of March 1990 , the District will have $38 . 2 million of debt outstanding, some $11 . 5 million ( 23%) under our statutory debt limit . Two major financings are planned for 1990-1991 . First , the District will sell approximately $2 . 2 million of certificates of participation (COP) to finance the purchase of a headquarters building . Since COPS are considered capitalized leases rather than bonds , this debt will not count against our statutory debt capacity. More important , the budget assumes the issuance of $25 million of twenty year notes - $13 . 5 million to pre-pay or defense existing notes and $11 . 5 million of new money. The refinancing portion of this transaction will reduce debt service payments over the next six years by $7 million, allowing the District to afford top priority land parcels when they are expected to come to market . Also included in the budget is an anticipated $225 , 000 land contract note . At the end of the 1990-1991 fiscal year , the District would then have $48 . 0 million of bonded debt outstanding compared to a statutory ceiling of $53 . 2 million. The current long-term financial plan indicates the next issue of long-term notes would be in 1992-1993 . Debt Service Current debt outstanding requires $5 . 67 million of debt service in 1990- 1991 . The budget assumes that the refinancing described above will reduce required 1990-1991 debt service by $1 . 97 million and that interest payable on new debt will total $937 , 500 . Therefore, the net amount budgeted is $4 . 64 million. A complete listing of payments against outstanding notes will be provided in the Debt Service Annual Claims List . Reserves If all revenues and expenditures occur as budgeted, the District ' s cash balances will total $11 . 4 million at the end of the coming fiscal year . This is some $7 . 4 million more than required to meet the reserve requirements of outstanding and planned public debt , and will adequately fund the first nine months of fiscal year 1991-1992 . Long Term Cash Flow Protection The relation of the proposed budget to the current year and the District ' s longer-term, financial plans is shown in the second attachment to this report . This five year plan accommodates $43 . 5 million for new land acquisition and $14 . 9 million for land management and preserve developr.ent . I.

We followed the same review format as last year . The process involved an overview of each program presented by District staff with detailed line item reports available for any necessary review. The committee analyzed the preliminary budget in accordance with the charge from the Board with emphasis on the impact & the Preliminary Action Plan , the Open Space Management Budget Policies , the 1990 International Conference , and the union representaLinn of some field staff . in the Communications budget , the 1990 International Conferencc will have a major irpact with heavy reliance on outside consultants . Tho uncertainty of outside fundinq exists but the Committee feels that the Conference budget is realistic and maintains enough flexibility to handle any contingency plans which may arise as we move toward the conference datH . The Open Space Managewent budget was reviewed both in re!gar ls to the cumulative impact of the Site Emphasis Plan , the Pruliminary Action Plan and staff project/equiprent priority requests (with an initial budget of S3 , 145 , 365) and within the framework of the Open Space Management Budget Policies (with a proposed budget of $2 , 59V250) . The difference between the two budgets is primarily reflected in the A , B , C Pro-jlect/Equipmen-� Priority List (which also includes the optional projects list seen during last year ' s budget process ) . The Committee felt that this was an excellent way to compare several interlocking Board policy documents within the budget process and should be continued as a part of the budget review . Due to the insurance figures being estimated, there may be an adjustment downward of approximately $50 , 000 . When the actual figures are determined in April 1990 , the Committee recommends that staff return to the Board with the revised figures and a determination be made by the Board as to the potential funding of one or more projects from the A, B , C Project/Equipment List . The Committee also feels that the Open Space Management Budget Policies be reviewed by the Board before the 1991-1992 budget process to determine if these policies require simplification and/or modification . The major impact of grant funding was also reflected in the comparison of last year ' s budget with the proposed 1990-1991 budget . The impact of the union negotiations are unknown at this time and the budget does not reflect any changes to field staff compensation which may arise from the negotiations . The Committee feels that the proposed Open Space Management budget for 1990-1991 is realistic and achievable with an even distribution of projects throughout the District . The acquisition program continues to have a large portion of its budget going to service the debt . A 1990 note issue will- occur in September in order to retire approximately $12 , 000 , 000 of the 1987 notes , prepay $1 , 400 , 000 of land contract notes and provide $11 , 500 , 000 of acquisition funding for the upcoming year . The newly purchased office building will be completely funded by Certificates of Participation to be issued in June , 1990 . The use of consultants continues to be an effective way to supplement staff time and will play a major role in the 1990 International Conference , as well as other major projects throughout the year . Having expended the overages in the P . E.R. S . account over the last several years , this year ' s budgeted item of $159 , 300 (plus additional P . E .R. S . funding to be added for any salary range adjustments for the general manager and general manager appointees) will reflect an actual change to the District . The Committee reviewed the implementation of the Salary Incentive Awards program and we support its continuation. We recommend that staff look into the augmentation of all or part of the study to expand the program. In regards to a realistic Action Plan/Budget format , the 1989-1990 actual budget will come within 90% of the budgeted . According to the Controller , this is the closest the budgeted and actual have matched and reflects the success last year of emphasizing a realistic Action Plan/Budget process . The District Controller advises that the District is on sound financial ground and , with the issuance of the long term notes in September , will still be well within our debt ceiling limit . The Committee feels this will be a very busy year and that staff has maintained the flexibility in the budget to deal with any needed contingency planning for the upcoming year . In conclusion , the Budget Committee recommended acceptance of the 1990-1991 budget by the Board . We would like to thank all who participated in the budget process and wish everyone a good year . 15000�4 MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT OPEN SPACE MANAGEMENT BUDGET POLICIES Priorities for Open Space management Budget Allocation Adopted by Board of Directors September 14, 1988 1. First priority in allocating Open Space Management budget shall be given to providing responsible public stewardship of District lands, including patrol, maintenance, visitor safety, basic site informa- tion to promote responsible public.* use and enjoyment of the lands, resource restoration and protection., associated site planning, and Open Space Acquisition support. 2. Second priority shall be given to development of basic visitor improvements, in accordance with Site Emphasis Policy, to make preserve areas usable by the general public, including access points, parking signing, and primary trail systems, and to visitor education and participation via volunteer programs. 3 . Third priority shall be given to development, in accordance with Site Emphasis Policy, of visitor improvements beyond those which are basic to making the site usable, including, for example, interpre- tive, picnic, and camping facilities. Inolementation In order to accomplish these priorities, the following policies shall be adhered to, unless changed by the Board, through fiscal year 1991- 1992, with Budget Committee review annually. 1. Funds will be provided (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6) . to implement the Open Space Management Staffing Plan, as approved. 2. Funds will be provided (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6) so that the combined total of services, supplies, and capital equipment budgets will grow at an average rate of up to 7%, as needed, above inflation from one year to the next. 3 . Capital improvement funds for basic visitor improvements will be provided (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6) at an average annual level of $120, 000. 4 . Extended visitor improvements, including the cost of contractual services for design and for construction oversight, will be provided to the extent that they can be funded by grants , and can be handled by staff included in the staffing plan without seriously impacting higher priority tasks . 5. Federal, State, and private grants will be aggressively sought for resource enhancement and protection and for basic and extended visitor improvements. At least 50% of funds which would ordinarily be provided by the District pursuant to paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 but are covered by g- is will be used to incre funds for resource enhancement or action, or for basic or -ended visitor improve- ments, but not in each case necessarily for the same category covered by the grant. 6 . Funds will be provided so that the total net budget, not including extended visitor improvements, but including costs of inflation and Board approved salary range increases, will grow, as needed and on the average, at the rate the District' s property tax income grows. 7 . The District ' s net cost of extended visitor improvements shall not exceed the funds not spent pursuant to Paragraph 6. 8 . in the event budget cuts are necessary, funding cuts would be made in each of the three priority areas for Open Space Management budget allocations . The priorities are intended to provide guidance in allocating any necessary budget cuts . February 22, 1990 ADHERENCE TO BUDGET GUIDELINES The following items were originally requested to be included in the budget but due to guideline constraints were not, and are therefore proposed for future year budgets . They are listed in priority need, or "A" being the most desirable. The Board and Budget Subcommittee have the option of adding items to the Open Space Management budget which could exceed the guidelines . The outfall is that this will have a direct overall budget impact by lowering funds available for land acquisition, or will limit staffing additions in other District programs as may be recommended in the General Manager ' s upcoming staffing plan. - "A" Priority 1) Salaries & benefits - one ranger position: $ 35, 600 2) Fixed assets - ranger yard improvements : 100, 000 (tentatively approved in U & M Plan) 3) Fixed assets - dump truck: 45, 000 4) Fixed assets - one replacement patrol truck: 18 , 000 "B" Priority 1) Services & supplies contract planning assistance for Skyline yard ($3, 000) , Rancho lower house ($2, 000) , Pulgas Ridge ($12 , 000) & Monte Bello Road ($1 , 500) : 18 , 500 Services & supplies upgrade Rancho Annex: 18 , 000 (tentatively in U & M Plan) Services & supplies - Rancho & Skyline field & fire equipment: 3 , 000 e maintenance Services & supplies - other outsid services for trails , site clean-up & ranger yards: 7 , 500 2) Fixed Assets - skyline pier construction: $ 40 , 000 Fixed Assets - tractor replacement: 14 ,000 Fixed Assets - new small truck: 20 , 000 Fixed Assets - cabin removal at La Honda: 10 , 000 Fixed Assets - other smaller items for site improvement & shop equipment: 9, 600 Fixed Assets - Monte Bello bridge construction (three years deferred) : 16 , 000 Fixed Assets - Ridge line undergrounding: 5, 000 Fixed Assets - Ravensbury improvements: 7 , 500 Fixed Assets - office & field computers: 8 '.000 Fixed Assets - Russian Ridge grazing improvements : 8 , 000 Fixed Assets - other minor site improvements: 4 , 900 "C" Priority 1) Services & supplies - various additional outside maintenance services , contract services, or regular outside services: 50, 900 2) Fixed Assets - lower Purisima restrooms : 15, 000 Fixed Assets - Kennedy parking lot: 35, 000 Fixed Assets - Windy Hill trails: 7 , 500 Fixed Assets - La Honda patrol easement: 32 , 500 Fixed Assets - other site improvements or capital equipment: 4 , 500 OTHER FACTORS AFFECTING BUDGET GUIDELINES Salaries and benefits are major share of budget and have biggest monetary impact on guidelines . Site or staff insurance needs are up $93 , 000 . Some needed capital equipment items such as one dump truck are expensive ($45, 000) and can affect entire capital equipment guideline. Mundane infrastructure site improvements such as restrooms , water lines, and ranger yard improvements are expensive to fund and also to find outside funding sources to support. i R-89-45 (Meeting 89-06 .A El March 8, 1989) ), ie C MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT OLD MILL OFFICE CENTER,BUILDING C,SUITE 135 201 SAN ANTONIO CIRCLE,MOUNTAIN VIEW,CALIFORNIA 94040 (415)949-5500 I March 1, 1989 i To : Board of Directors From : Budget Committee ( Teena Henshaw, Robert Mc Kibbin i Nonette Hanko ) Subject : 1989-1990 Budget j I The Budget Committee has met six times since January 24; beginning with an overview from the General Manager as to changes in the format for staff presentations which followed the spirit of the Budget Committee recommendations last year. We concentrated on implementation of the preliminary 1989-1990 Action Plan rather than a line-item budget review. Each program was separately agendized and staff presentations were made through project summary sheets. Detailed line-item reports for each program were disseminated at the end of the meetings. These reports were then agendized at the beginning of the next meeting incase any committee member wished to raise questions. This year consultants and /or privatecontractors have been used to,a greater degree to supplement existing staff. This is a help in implementing the Open Space Management program. We have attached a staff report titled Open Space ManaLement Proposed 1989- 1990.Budget, which addresses staff adherence to the policies adopted by the Board last year.In addition to a budgeted Open Space Manage- ment program, staff has prepared a separate list of optional projects. If for some reason items from the budgeted program are delayed, high- er priority items from the optional list will be moved ahead. At this time we see no reason for recommending any geographical redistribu- tion of projects. Upon committee consideration of the importance of Public Events under the Communications Program, the General Manager has added a trail opening event for Pulgus Ridge Open Space Preserve. I Ge^era!Manager,Board of Directors:Katherine Duffy,Robert McKibbin,Teena Henshaw,Edward Shelley,Nonette Hanko,Gerry Andeen,Richard Bishop The Committee reviewed the implementation of the Salary Incentive Award program and supports its continuation. We further recommend that the Board authorize a staff study as to the possible expansion of the program. Under the Fringe Benefit Plan review, we are anticipating that a 15% increase in District contribution may be necessary to continue at the 1988 level. Up-to-date premium information should be available by mid-April. The Budget Committee is prepared to meet and report to the Board on this subject Present Board policy has placed a $10,000 limitation on Gen- eral Manager expenditures for supplies ,materials or labor for new construction of any building, structure, or improvement. The Committee supports a '%)'25,000 limitation which would be consistent with the District's enabling legislation, and which wou.ld be time saving for projects which; have already received Board apprDval. The Committee discerned a need for a Board adopted procedure for compensation review of Board appointed offflicers . As you recall , .our recommendations were considered, amended, emrl adopted by tfie Board on February 22. In conclusion, the Budget Committee is i2nanimous in its support for the new budget schedule and format.,and we wis i to thank, the staff for thoir-.efithusiasm in getting it to work.

MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT 1989-1990 Budget Committee Charges- At the January 11, 1989 meeting, the Board, with respect to the budget review process, charged the Budget Committee with: a. conducting a review of the proposed 1983-1989 Preliminary Action Plan, especially in regard to its being a realistically achievable wcrk program, on the Board' s behalf as part of the budget review process ; b. examining the proposed use of consultants and/or private contractors to supplement existing staff resources and expertise; C. reviewing the separate category of low priority projects that will not be directly included for funding in the budget; d. reviewing Open Space Management' s proposed budget in accordance with the Open Space Management Budget Policies adopted on 'Septemeber 14, 1988; e. auditing the incentive award program for compliance with District policies and approving budget for the program on behalf of the Board; and f. returning to the Board with recommendations taking into account the geographical distribution of projects if the Committee finds that, in its opinion, resources are inadequate to carry out the entire proposed Action Plan. The Budget Coamzittee was also charged with directing staff and/or con- sultant(s) to gather appropriate information and to meet with Board appointees in order for the committee to recommend possible sible salary changes for the General Manager, Legal and Controller.I i �II 2/16/89 OPEN SPACE MANAGEMENT PROPOSED 1989-1990 BUDGET Adherence to Open Space Management Policies r; POLICY PRIORITIES : 1. First priority in allocating Open Space Management budget shall be given to providing responsible public stewardship of District lands, including patrol, maintenance, visitor safety, basic site information to promote proper public use and enjoyment of the lands, resource restoration and protection, associated site planning, and Open Space Acquisition support. 2. Second priority shall be given to development of basic visitor improvements , in accordance with Site Emphasis Policy, to make preserve areas usable by the general public, including access points , parking; signing, and primary trail systems, and to visitor education and participation via volunteer programs. 3 . Third priority shall be given to development, in accordance with Site Emphasis Policy, of visitor improvements beyond those which are basic to making the site usable, including, for example, interpretive, picnic, and camping facilities . Priority Adherence: Due to the District ' s success in obtaining grant funds for capital improvement projects, a significant amount of funding is again projected for completing basic and extended visitor improvements . This has been true in this budget over the last two years. However, the proposed budget shows a noted increase in funds to provide responsible public and site stewardship of District lands . Examples are increased funding for volunteer programs, for site resource management planning, and for maintaining a full staffing program in the fourth year of the five- year staffing plan. Added funds are also provide for signing, for outside patrol services, for site clean- up, and for road and trail maintenance. B) IMPLEMENTATION POLICIES: 1 . Funds will be provided (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6) to implement the Open Space Management Staffing Plan, as approved. Policy Adherence: Funds are fully provided to i plement the Omen Space Management staffing plan. 2/16/89 OPEN SPACE MANAGEMENT PROPOSED 1989-1990 BUDGET Adherence to Open Space Management Policies f ?

Funds will be provided (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6) to implement the Open Space Management Staffing Plan, as approved. Policy Adherence: Funds are fully provided to implement the Open Space Management staffing plan. I I With a hypothetical 3 . 5% cost of living increase added to salaries, an increase of 10% over the adopted 1988- 89 12-month budget is projected. 2 . Funds will be provided (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6) so that the combined total of services, supplies, and capital equipment budgets will grow at an average rate of up to 7%, as needed, above inflation from one year to the next. Policy Adherence: The total proposed budget is up $80, 357 , or 2 .9% over 1988-89 12-month budget. 3. Capital improvement funds for basic visitor improvements will be provided (subject to the limitations of Paragraph 6) at an average annual level of $120 , 000 . Policy Adherence: Funds for basic visitor improvements, including planning ($34 , 900) and construction ($95, 560) , are provided totaling $130 , 458 . This is over the guideline, but $51, 833 of these improvements are funded by grants or other outside sources . The net expenditure amounts to $78 , 625. 4 . Extended visitor improvements , including the cost of contractual services for design and for construction oversight, will be provided to the extent that they can be funded by grants, and can be handled by staff included in the staffing plan without seriously impacting higher priority tasks. Policy Adherence: Extended visitor improvements are high at $820, 257 . However, it is felt that staff and consultants can handle these projects without impacting other Open Space Management tasks . Outside or grant funding accounts for $799, 857 of this total . The projected $20, 400 expenditure of District funds includes $8000 for grazing improvements and $3000 for whole access installations. 5. Federal , state, and private grants will be aggressively, sought for resource enhancement and protection and for basic and extended visitor improvements . At least 50% of funds which would ordinarily be provided by the District pursuant to paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 but are covered by grants will be used to increase funds for resource enhancement or protection, or for basic or extended visitor improvements, but not in each case necessarily for the same category covered by the grant. Policy Adherence: Grants have been aggressively sought for basic and extended visitor improvements as is noted in policies three and four above. Because $51, 833 of 4 the funds in basic visitor improvements are grant funded, 50% of that money more than offsets the District funding of extended visitor improvements. 6. Funds will be provided so that the total net budget, not including extended visitor improvements, but including costs of inflation and Board approved salary range increases, will grow, as needed and on the average, at the rate the District ' s property tax income grows. Policy Adherence: The property tax income increase is calculated at 6% estimated on a nine months basis. j With the total net budget at $1,990,325, the increase is 2% or $39, 125 over the fiscal year 1988-89 net budget. 7 . The District ' s net cost of extended visitor improvements shall not exceed funds not spent pursuant to Paragraph. 6 . Policy Adherence: The District' s net cost of extended visitor improvements if $20 , 400 . Funds not spent pursuant to Paragraph 6 are approximately $80 ,000. s 8. In the event budget cuts are necessary, funding cuts would be made in each of the three priority areas for Open Space Management budget allocations. The priorities are intended to provide guidance in allocating any necessary budget cuts. i Policy Adherence: No budget cuts are anticipated.

Grench, General Manager RESPONSIBILITY AND PREPARATION: C . Britton, Land Acquisition Manager; D. Hansen, Land Manager; M. Gundert, Open Space Planner; C . Bruins , Administrative Assistant SUBJECT: Proposed Addition of Young et al . Property to Long Ridge Open Space Preserve Recommended Actions : 1 . Adopt the accompanying Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District Authorizing Acceptance of Purchase Agreement, Authorizing Officer to Execute Certificate of Acceptance of Grant to District, and Authorizing General Manager to Execute Any and All Other Documents Necessary or Appropriate to Closing of the Transaction (Long Ridge Open Space Preserve - Lands of Young et al . ) 2 . Tentatively adopt the Preliminary Use and Management Plan recommen- dations contained in this report, including naming the property as an addition to Long Ridge Open Space Preserve . 3 . Indicate your intention to dedicate the property as public open space . Introduction The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District currently has the opportunity to purchase a parcel of land that would be integral to Long Ridge Open Space Preserve, The 34-acre parcel fronts Skyline Boulevard and has been known locally as "Bar Y Ranch" . The property is developed with a two bedroom house, barn and other outbuildings . A portion of the old Summit Road alignment is within the property. Old Summit Road was realigned to become Skyline Boulevard, leaving the old. right of way unused. This right of way will be referred to as Summit Road for purposes of this report . Summit Road is designated as a trail connecting Long Ridge Open Space Preserve on either side of this property. According to staff research, the public continues to have rights on Summit R-90-36 Page two Road , and it has therefore been the District ' s position that the public has rights for trail usage across the alignment . The owners of Bar Y Ranch have disputed that right, but have not initiated any legal resistance . :Instead, a gate has blocked one end of the right of way and a chain cable obstructs the other end. Hikers and bicyclists have continued to use the alignment in spite of the obstacles . This acquisition will not only allow for secure trail rights but will also close the gap in Long Ridge Open Space Preserve ' s frontage on Skyline Boulevard. 1 . Property Identification Property owner: Henry and Betty Young (1/2 interest) and Mark and Patricia Reschar (1/2 interest) Size : 33 . 7 acres 2 . Location and Boundaries (see attached map) Regional setting: Unincorporated Santa Cruz County; bordered on the west by San Mateo County and on the east by Santa Clara County Road access : Two gated access points from Skyline Boulevard (State Highway 35) Boundaries : Bounded by Long Ridge Open Space Preserve on the west and south sides, and Skyline Boulevard on the north and east sides . Nearby public lands : Santa Clara County Upper Stevens Creek County Park is located 0 . 3 miles east. Saratoga Gap and Monte Bello Open Space Preserves border the county park . Nearby landmarks : Table Mountain (elevation 1 , 852 feet) is located 0 . 8 miles northeast 3 . Topography and Hydrology Prominent topographic features : Peters Creek arcs through the southwestern quadrant of the property, paralleling Skyline Boulevard. Elevation range: 2 , 200 feet at the point where Peters Creek exits the property to 2 , 400 feet at the southwestern corner Slope steepness: The Summit Road alignment through the property is level . Tree-covered slopes rise with moderate steepness from the road alignment to the southwest . To the north and east , the rolling grassland slopes are gentle to moderately steep. R-90-36 Page three Slope exposure: The slopes north and east of Peters Creek generally face southwest; slopes southwest of the creek generally face northeast . Watershed: Slopes drain into Peters Creek, which ultimately joins Pescadero Creek via Devils Canyon. 4 . Geology and Soils Seismology: San Andreas rift zone is located approximately 2 miles east . Soil classification: Botella Loam and Laughlin Loam Soil stability: Very high erosion hazard (Laughlin Loam) and moderate erosion hazard (Bottela Loam) 5. Flora and Fauna Plant communities : Primarily grassland; oak woodland and mixed evergreen forest in southwest corner and along Peters Creek Dominant flora: European and native grasses , oaks , Douglas fir and madrone Common fauna: Deer, coyote , bobcat, skunk, fox, raccoon 6 . Visual Qualities Viewshed: Contributes to scenic backdrop of Long Ridge Open Space Preserve and viewshed from Skyline Boulevard, a state scenic highway 7 . Existing Improvements The developed portion of the property is located in the southeastern corner of the parcel . Structural improvements on the parcel include a small two bedroom house , a two stall barn with horse corral , and several other small outbuildings . The house is approximately 40 years old and needs repair . The house was rented earlier to a member of the owners ' family, but is now vacant . The property has two gated access points from Skyline Boulevard. The primary access is located along the southeastern portion of the property in a sweeping turn on Skyline Boulevard. The second access point is several hundred feet north of the primary access . From the building compound, numerous foot trails traverse the area . A small bridge crosses Peters Creek behind the building compound on a foot trail that connects with the Summit Road alignment . Summit Road enters the property in the center of the southern boundary and continues in a northeastern direction through the property. R-90-36 Page four 8 . Existing Use The buildings are currently vacant . The trail route along the Summit Road alignment shows evidence of use from hikers and bicycles in spite of the gating and blocking at either end. 9 . Planning Considerations Political boundaries : Unincorporated Santa Cruz County, outside but contiguous to District boundaries and within the District ' s sphere ofinfluence Zoning: Mountain residential . The parcel does not appear to be eligible for further subdivision under Santa Cruz County ' s land use policies and site development regulations . Master Plan rating: Not rated due to its location outside District boundaries . Surrounding lands are given moderate composite ratings . Use and Management Plan review: The Use and Management Plan for Long Ridge Open Space Preserve was last reviewed in February, 1987 . The next review is tentatively scheduled for April , 1990 . Regional plans : The proposed Bay Area Ridge Trail follows the Summit Road alignment through the property. 10 . Potential Use and Management The Summit Road alignment is an integral part of the existing trail system on Long Ridge Open Space Preserve . The route through the subject property has been used historically by preserve visitors , even though District trail signing on the preserve has not encouraged this use . Recent completion of a trail. built by the Trail. Center volunteers to bypass Jikoji ends at the Jikoji pond dam, approximately one quarter of a mile south of the subject parcel . The Trail Center trail and the Summit Road alignment through the property create a loop that goes to the Grizzly Flat parking area or the Peters Creek Loop trail to the ridge . The site has the potential for an attractive staging area in the current building compound location. However, access from Skyline Boulevard may be a problem due to poor line-of-sight when entering and exiting the highway. A more suitable access point would be the secondary gate, located north on Skyline Boulevard. The line-of- sight at this point is better, but would still require assistance from CalTrans to determine if the entrance would be a safe public access point . R-90-36 Page five 11 . Public Safety Review The building compound will be posted "closed" to public use until staff has sufficient time to conduct a public safety inspection. Costs of securing the area are estimated at $200 . The purpose of the inspection is to identify existing or potential hazards and provide mitigation measures to make the area safe prior to opening it to public use . While the area is closed, staff will evaluate alternatives for disposition of the house. At the presentation of the Use and Management Plan for Long Ridge Open Space Preserve, staff will present recommendations on the use of the structures . Current options include rental as an enterprise structure or ranger/caretaker residence, or demolition of one or more of the structures . Rangers will continue to patrol the area on a regular basis to assure compliance with the area closed signs . 12 . Preliminary Use and Management Recommendations Public Safety Inspection: The building compound will remain closed until staff conducts a safety inspection of the site . Results of the study and any necessary mitigation measures will be included in the April Use and Management Plan for the preserve . Signs : Post boundaries as needed. In addition, post the building compound as closed. Roads : Open the Summit Road alignment through the property for patrol and trail purposes once the cable and gate are removed. Process an abandonment through the County of Santa Cruz for extinguishment of public rights to Summit Road . Building Compound: Staff will conduct a study to determine disposition of the structures . Results of the study and recommendations will be presented in the April , 1990 Use and Management Plan. 13 . Name The property should be named as an addition to Long Ridge Open Space Preserve. 14 . Dedication I recommend that you indicate your intention to dedicate the property as public open space . R-90-36 Page six 15 . Terms ' s stipulated in the attached purchase agreement , the full purchase price for this property, including all improvements , is $600 , 000 payable in cash at the close of escrow.

Introduction The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District has been offered the opportunity to purchase a magnificent 1 , 100 acre ranch in San Mateo County. It is situated in beautiful. rolling terrain between La Honda Creek Open Space Preserve and La Honda Road (State Route 84) on the western slope of the Santa Cruz Mountains . This scenic property represents a major District acquisition. It will provide an excellent R-90-37 Page two staging area for District lands in the La Honda Creek watershed, greatly increasing accessibility to La Honda Creek Open Space Preserve , and more than doubling its size, from 840 to 1 , 940 acres . Visitors will be able to hike from the redwood forests along La Honda Creek up into extensive open grasslands with outstanding vistas . A good trail system of interconnected ranch roads exists on the site , and a wealth of diverse plant communities , springs , creeks , and ponds provide excellent wildlife habitat . As part of the purchase , the property owner will be entitled to use all the existing improvements and graze up to 100 head of cattle on the property for the next five years . Because of this provision, the large size of the property, and the planning needed to develop safe site access , T am recommending that the site initially not be open to the public . 1 . Property Identification Property owner: William McDonald et al . Size: 1099 . 61 acres 2 . Location and Boundaries (see attached map) Regional setting: Western slopes of Santa Cruz Mountains west of La Honda Road (State Route 84) ; unincorporated San Mateo County Road access : Main entrance gate is three and a half miles south of Sky Londa on La Honda Road near its intersection with Old La Honda Road. Secondary gate lies west of La Honda Road at south end of ranch. Boundaries : Property is cut by La Honda Road. A larger 1 , 060-acre portion west of the road is bounded by La Honda Creek Open Space Preserve to the north and private property on the remaining sides . A smaller 40-acre parcel , east of La Honda Road, is bounded by Old La Honda Road on the west side , and by private property on the remaining sides . Nearby public lands : Property adjoins southern boundary of La Honda Creek Open Space Preserve; Windy Hill Open Space Preserve is located approximately one mile east . Nearby landmarks : La Honda Road cuts through the eastern side of the property; Sky Londa is located three and a half miles north; the bright red barn on property has been a local landmark visible from La Honda Road. R-90-37 Page three 3 . Topography and Hydrology Prominent topographic features : Steep south-facing slopes along northern boundary; four prominent hilltops in western portion of property; Weeks Creek forms part of the southeast boundary, La Honda Creek drainage cuts through property parallel to La Honda Road Elevation range: 640 feet next to La Honda Creek in the southwest corner to 1 , 600 feet on the northern boundary; 40-acre parcel east of La Honda Road climbs to a peak elevation of 1 , 300 feet at eastern edge of property Slope steepness : Land ranges from moderately level to steeply sloping; steepest slopes along northern boundary and above La Honda Creek in central part of property Slope exposure : East and west facing slopes above La Honda Creek; all exposures represented on rest of property Watershed: La Honda Creek flows from north to south through the property, fed by an unnamed tributary from the northwestern corner and by Weeks and Spanish Ranch Creeks from the southeastern corner . Harrington Creek flows through projecting portion of property on western boundary. I - 4 . Geology and Soils Seismology: San Andreas Fault Zone located approximately four and a half miles to the northeast; Pilarcitos Fault approximately two miles northeast; Woodhaven Fault cuts through property Soil classification: Sweeney-Mindego soils (sloping to very steep, dark colored, moderately deep soils on basic igneous rocks under grass or forest) . Sweeney soils , where open and clear, are very productive for forage . Mindego soils produce good stands of timber , particularly redwood . Soil stability: Generally stable; steep hillsides have a moderate to high erosion hazard rating Springs and ponds : Fourteen developed springs and two ponds . Pond on Lone Madrone Ridge dries up in summer; pond near southwest corner is spring-fed and permanent. Provides potential habitat for endangered San Francisco garter snake . Area below barn used to be marsh but was filled in by Mr. McDonald. 5 . Flora and Fauna Plant communities : Grassland, which has been grazed extensively for about 30 years ; mixed evergreen forest; redwood forest that has been logged periodically, including one million board feet this past year; R-90-37 Page four riparian corridors along streams; small patches of coastal scrub on south-facing hillsides . Dominant flora: La Honda Creek drainage densely vegetated with redwood, madrone and oak, annual grassland on hilltops , some areas heavily invaded by purple star thistle . A rare albino redwood is on the property east of La, Honda Creek. Common fauna: Deer , coyote , bobcat , squirrel , grey fox, racoon, great horned owl , quail , and long tailed weasel . Pond near southwest corner contains red legged frogs , newts , and Pacific garter snakes . Golden eagles , red tailed hawks , and other large raptors common above hilltops ; mountain lions have been sighted in the Harrington Creek drainage . There has been no hunting on the property for the past 15 years . Turkeys and chuckars were introduced but they have not survived due to lack of cover from grazing. 6 . Visual Oualities Viewshed: Forms scenic backdrop to north of La Honda Road Vistas : Outstanding panoramic views of undeveloped countryside and ocean from hilltops , ranging from Half Moon Bay to the ridgeline of the Santa Cruz Mountains 7 . Existinqjmproyements� (a) Main house - approximately 2 , 173 square feet; domestic water from natural spring (b) Mobile home , fourteen feet by sixty-five- feet , used as foreman ' s quarters (c) Barn, 3 , 600 square feet (d) Garage and truck port , 1 , 650 square feet (e) Milk house , 750 square feet (f) Haybarn, 3 , 000 square feet (g) Corrals (h) Perimeter and cross fencing (i) Fourteen year-round springs and two small , spring-fed ponds (j ) All range lands interconnected by fair to good-quality logging roads R-90-37 Page five 8 . Existing Use "Rocking Martini Ranch" has been owned by the McDonalds since the early 1960 ' s and used for cattle ranching. The ranch is said to have a capacity of close to 200 head of cattle because of its numerous spring-fed water sources , open pasture lands , road system, corrals , and fencing. The property has been logged at intervals . In 1989 , a total of one million board feet of redwood timber was removed, and one million board feet of timber was removed 15 years ago . There is a 100 feet wide easement for a PG&E line of poles and wires , towers , and transmission wires . An easement also exists for a portion of the state riding and hiking trail , dating from the 1950 ' s . 9 . History The property was once a stage stop on the road to the coast . An inn stood adjacent to where the red barn now stands , but burned down some decades ago. The main house was used as a bunkhouse by the stagehands . 10 . Archaeology The property has not been surveyed for archaeological sites , but is considered likely to contain unrecorded sites near water sources . 11 . Planning Considerations Political boundaries : Unincorporated San Mateo County. Northern third of property is within District boundaries; southeastern third of property is outside District boundaries but within the District ' s sphere of influence; southwestern third of property is outside District boundaries . Zoning: Most of the property considered within Resource Management District (RM) . A 140-acre area in the north central section of the property falls within a Timber Preserve Zone (TPZ) . The property is currently under a Williamson Act contract . A preliminary density analysis conducted by the Planning and Development Division of San Mateo County in July 1988 indicated the property could be developed for 27 building sites under the existing zoning. Master Plan rating: Medium ranking for composite open space resource value in area within District boundaries . Rest of property not rated. Use and Management Plan review: Last reviewed March 1988 ; next review scheduled for June 1991 (Interim Use and Management Plan) Regional, plans : Harrington Creek flows through a projection in the western boundary of the property. The San Mateo County Trails Plan (1989) proposes a trail following Harrington Creek . The Harrington R-90-37 Page six Creek Trail would begin at the Ridge Trail in El Corte de Madera Open Space Preserve and continue through the community of La Honda to Sam McDonald County Park, a total length of about twelve miles . 12 . Potential Use and Management General Planning: The property will more than double the size of La Hondas Creek Open Space Preserve by adding 1 , 100 acres of prime recreational land and providing accessible staging areas . This addition will greatly increase public visibility and use of this preserve. However, development will be limited initially by the terms of the lease-back summarized as follows : As part of the purchase, Mr. McDonald will be entitled to graze up to 100 head of cattle on the property for the next five years and use all existing improvements , including the main house and mobile home. There would be no expansion of the current grazing area without District approval , no more timber harvest , and no more cutting of firewood, including downed wood. The following potential use and management discussion is intended to provide background for planning during the lease period. This period would also allow time for development of a comprehensive management plan which could address such topics as location and design of the main staging area, development of a trail system, potential development of an interpretive center, the role of grazing, biological and historical resources , use of improvements after the lease period, and removal of possible hazards . With such a plan, staff could begin applying for grants to implement the recommendations once the lease has terminated. Access : There are two roads entering the property west of La Honda Road, the main entrance near the intersection of Old La Honda Road (shown as A on attached map) and the southern entrance near the intersection of Weeks and La Honda Creeks (shown as B on attached map) . The main entrance road divides shortly after entering the property. One branch, road three, goes to the house and barn area, and continues out onto the ridge between La Honda Creek and La, Honda Road. The area around the barn appears to be the best potential staging area for the preserve. The area is open, very visible and accessible from La Honda Road, centrally located, relatively level , and has already been developed with structures of historic interest . The barn or main house could become an interpretive center. The mobile home would make a good ranger or caretaker residence. However, according to the terms of the purchase, the area around the main house and barn would not be available for public use for at Least five years, even if the District opted to open the rest of the site to the public. R-90-37 Page seven A potential alternative parking site to provide access to the central and northern part of the property is a large pullout on La Honda Road immediately north of the main entrance. A short trail connecting this pullout with the main entrance and road one is needed. This arrangement would keep the lease area and road three separated from the public trail, yet still allow direct access to the northern part of the property, which has the best views and the most direct connection to the upper grassland. The southern entrance has potential for the best short term access to the preserve. There is parking for approximately 20 cars along La Honda Road outside the gate in a section of the road with a good line of sight . The area inside the gate is also level and, if some broom is cleared, could provide parking for another 20 or more cars . Roads: The extensive network of interconnecting roads will provide a ready-made trail system and patrol route through the preserve. However, the roads become very muddy and trampled by cattle during the rainy season. This could conflict with visitor use. The existing roads will permit long loop trips , but some new connections will be needed to create shorter trail loops, especially from the southern entrance . Staff explored one potential route along La Honda Creek between the southern entrance and road two ' s crossing of the creek. Although beautiful , this section proved too rugged for a good trail route. La Honda Creek flows through a narrow, rocky canyon, creating many small waterfalls and rapids . The steep creekbanks allow no room for a trail . Grazing: Mr. McDonald will have the right to graze tip to 100 head of cattle on the preserve for up to five years . His practice has been to rotate the cattle through different areas , which have been gated and fenced. If the District were to allow public access during the five years , it would be necessary to put signs on the gates and/or develop stiles so the public can pass through the fenced areas without allowing the cattle to escape. Conflicts could also arise from the cattle ' s use of the roads during the rainy season. All of these potential conflict issues will be addressed before the site is recommended for opening to public use. Mr. McDonald will be responsible for keeping the roads in usable condition. 40-Acre Parcel : This triangular parcel is separate from the rest of the preserve because it lies east of La Honda Road. It is bounded on the west by Old La Honda Road and on the north and east by private property. The 40-acre parcel is largely grassland and is currently being grazed by bulls. For this reason, keeping it closed to the public is recommended for the duration of the lease, a total of five years . R-90-37 Page eight 13 . Public Safety Review The entire property will not be open to public use until staff has had sufficient time to conduct a public safety inspection. The purpose of the inspection is to identify existing and potential hazards and provide mitigation measures to make the property safe for public use . Mitigation measures will be taken and additional safety recommendations will be included in the 1991 Interim Use and Management Plan for the La Honda Creek Open Space Preserve. 14. Preliminary Use and Management Recommendations Access: The entire site will not be opened for public use until after the Board considers the the Interim Use and Management Plan for La Honda Creek Open Space Preserve in 1991 . The plan will include a determination of what portions of the site will be opened to the public and when this will occur. A number of site improvements or needs (ie. signing, hazard mitigation, and additional patrol services) may be required before the site is opened. Signs: Install area closed signs and boundary plaques at appropriate locations . Roads: Mr. McDonald will maintain the roads for the next five years as part of the lease agreement. 15. Name The property should be named as an addition to La Honda Creek Open Space Preserve. 16 . Dedication I recommend that you withhold the property from dedication as public open space at this time. This would allow for a trade of development rights , future adjustment of preserve boundaries , or a sale of a portion of the property. 17 . Terms In accordance with the attached purchase agreement, the full purchase price for this property is $4, 200, 000, with $1, 800, 000 to be paid in cash at the close of escrow and the balance of $2, 400, 000 to be financed by the owners at 5% interest for one year. This short term financing is mainly to assist District cash flow relative to the planned public note issue later this year. The total purchase price is in accordance with the independent appraisal of the property. The agreement also contains several specially tailored conditions relative to purchase of the buildings and fixtures , and specifically requires the cessation of redwood timber harvest on the property. R-90-37 Page nine In addition to the payment specified in the agreement , the District is to lease the entire ranch back to Mr. McDonald for a period of five years from close of escrow. The general terms of the leaseback have been agreed upon; however, because of time constraints a formal lease agreement has not been completed. The general terms are as follows : 1 . The rent would be $4 , 000 annually and accelerated at the increase in the consumer price index. This is based upon leasing the property for grazing purposes . 2 . Mr. McDonald would provide a full-time caretaker/foreman on the premises . 3 . Mr. McDonald would be responsible for keeping the fencing, gates and improvements in good order and repair and pay all utility bills . 4 . The grazing rights would be limited to a maximum of one hundred head of cattle. 5. The District would provide basic fire insurance on the property and buildings; however, Mr. McDonald would provide liability and other insurance associated with his operation on the property. 6 . There would be no removal of chaparral areas to expand the grazing area and there would be no removal of fire wood. The details of the lease will be negotiated before close of escrow, slated for April 30 , 1990 under the purchase agreement . It is recommended that you authorize the General Manager to approve and execute the final lease under the general terms outlined above. 18 . Funding The full explanation of this funding summary is contained in report R-89-103 dated July 3, 1989 . The District ' s 1989-1990 fiscal year budget includes $6. 0 million for new open space acquisitions; $5. 5 million in cash outlay and $0. 5 million in notes.

C.Everett Koop,M.D.,U.S.Surgeon General under the Reagan and Bush Administrations. In a May 1989 report,he said: I strongly recommend that states consider 5 cents a drink to be the minimum tax increase. After all,who could quarrel with a"nickel-a drink"user fee that will generate millions of dollars to help save lives? Why do we need a higher tax on alcoholic beverages? It's the fairest way to help pay the encwmus costs alcohol imposes on society. The tax money is ear- marked for law enforcement,including crackdowns on drunken driving,services for battered women and their children,treatment and recovery services for people with alcohol problems,mental health programs,emergency rooms,care for babies with fetal alcohol syndrome and other public programs linked to alcohol abuse. Who supports the tax increase? A broad coalition of citizens and groups,everyone from the California Association of Highway Pa- trolmen lmen to the California Women's Commission on Alcohol and Drug Dependencies. How much money will this tax raise? These nickels will add up to approxirmately$730,000,000 in 1991-1992,according to the Legislative in liquor Analyst and the Department of Fuussaance. The tax will be collected from beer, wine and producers and from wholesalers who import alcoholic beverages from out of state. i How does the initiative translate its"nickel-a-drink"into a state tax that's levied on gallons? The initiative specifies that a drink of beer is 12 ounces; a drink of wine is five ounces;and a drink of hard liquor is one ounce.* THE NICKEL-A-DRINK TAX TRANSLATES INTO: Current State Tax With a Nickel-a-Drink Added Wine 10 a gallon $1.29 a gallon Beer 4¢ a gallon $0.573 a gallon Hard liquor $2 a gallon $8.40 a gallon P.O. Box 191297 Sacramento,California 95819-1297 �. How does nickel-a-drink compare with other states? • Florida has the highest wine tax $2.25/gallon. • Alabama has the highest beer tax $1.05/gallon. • Utah has the highest hard liquor tax $12.50/gallon. In fact,we are proposing a relatively modest increase. If the initiative raised California's alcohol bev- erage tax to the highest rates of other states,it would generate$1.6 billion in new funds—or more than twice as much as a nickel-a-drink will raise. Why are California's current alcoholic beverages taxes so low? Ask your state legislator. The legislature decides whose taxes will be raised to pay the costs of alcohol abuse.The liquor lobby is now spending over$2 million a year (in lobbying expenses and campaign contributions) to influence Legislators. Will the nickel-a-drink tax affect alcoholic beverages made in California but sold elsewhere? No. Two-thirds of California's wine production,for example,is exported and will be exempt from the tax. Is this tax unfair to light or moderate drinkers? No. The initiative would help balance the scales so that people who drink more,pay more. According to the National Academy of Sciences, about 11 percent of the adult population drinks about two- thirds of all the alcohol that is consumed annually. Today the tab for alcohol abuse is picked up by all taxpayers, whether they drink or not. Recent polls show that three out of every four people —including moderate drinkers— support an alcohol tax increase. Isn't this a regressive tax that will hurt the poor? r for Science in the Public Interest poor people drink less than people No. According to the Center o S , P P P P g with middle and upper incomes. Thus the won't be effected b the tax to the same degree. The Y Y Centercites a report from the Congressional Budget Office that says only 41 percent of families with incomes under$10,000 drink any beer at all. But over 80 percent of families with incomes over $30,000 drink beer. * To convert a nickel-a-drink into a tax per gallon, divide the number of ounces for each drink(as defined by the initiative) into 128 (the number of ounces in a gallon)and multiply by f ve cents.

Lutheran Office of Public Policy California National Assoc. of Social Workers California Chapter TH riCOHOL TAX INITIATIVE OF 199r Questions and Answers Wh a t is the initiative? A proposed constitutional amendment that will go before voters at the November 1990 election. What will it do? a Raise state excise taxes paid by producers and wholesalers of alcoholic beverages. fir Earmark the money for public programs that are burdened by problems related to alcohol and other drugs. What are these costs? They are the additional costs imposed on business and government by alcohol-related problems. For instance, about half of all misdemeanor arrests in California involve an alcohol-related crime. Estimates are that alcohol will costs all Californians about $13.6 billion next year. How would the tax be levied? It would be levied directly on producers and wholesalers according to sales volume. They would then decide how much to absorb and how much to pass on. If the full amount is passed on, what would it be? A nickel a drink. The tax on a 12-ounce can of beer would go up five cents. The tax on five ounces of wine and one ounce of hard liquor would rise a nickel. How much new money will the tax increase raise? An estimated $730 million in the first year. THE ALCOHOL TAX OF 1990 Prevention (24.0%) Victims (15.0%) Mental Health (15.0%) x X Emergency Care (25.0%) Y Law Enforcement (21.0%) *Provides and estimated $110 million for prevention, treatment, and recovery programs for alcohol and other drug abusers. Approximately $15 million is earmarked for recreation and park programs and projects that address alcohol and other drug impacts on public parks and facilities. This can include public safety, litter, vandalism, and youth-at-risk programs. PROPOSED ALCOHOL TAX INITIA E WHAT: Scheduled for the November 1990 ballot, THE ALCOHOL TAX ACT OF 1990 is an important measure for all Californians. We know alcohol costs California taxpayers billions annually in lost worker productivity and disabilities, health and medical costs, violent crimes, motor vehicle accidents, domestic violence, homelessness, child abuse, fire losses, vandalism, environmental damage, and public safety costs. WHO: California health, medical, public safety, and mental health organizations and the California Park and Recreation Society have joined to pass this important initiative. WHEN: In order to qualify for the November 1990 election, one million signatures must be gathered. THE RETURN: The initiative calls for the revenue raised from the new tax (estimated at $730 million) to go toward funding those issues that are impacted by alcohol and drug consumption. These include emergency and trauma care, programs aimed at the prevention and treatment of alcohol problems, mental health programs, health programs for infants, children and mothers, and law enforcement. Alcohol and other drug use can cause tremendous damage to parks and recreation facilities as a result of vandalism, litter, and unruly or criminal behavior. Funds estimated at $15 million have been earmarked for parks and recreation programs as part of the initiative 's Law Enforcement Account. Funds can be used for recreation and park programs and projects that address alcohol and other drug impacts on public parks and facilities. This can include public safety, litter, vandalism, youth-at-risk, and other prevention and diversion activities. Funds for parks and recreation will be distributed using the per capita formula of the 1986 Community Parklands Act. Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District will receive about $118, 000 annually, while San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties will receive approximately $89,000 and $203, 000 respectively. An additional $423, 000 will be allocated annually to the cities and recreation districts in the two counties. The initiative language clearly calls for ALL funds to be placed in specific accounts, which eliminates the potential for later diversion. THE BOTTOM LINE: With the funds generated by increasing the alcohol tax, programs and projects will be funded ON AN ANNUAL BASIS, which will provide assistance for vandalism and litter control, as well as public safety and youth programs. INITIATIVE MEASURE TO BE SUBMITTED DIRECTLY TO THE VOTERS The Attorney General of California has prepared the following title and summary of the chief purpose and points of the proposed measure: ALCOHOL SURTAX FUND. CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. INITIATIVE STATUTE. Establishes Alcohol Surtax Fund in State Treasury. Imposes surtax of five cents per 12 ounces beer, 5 ounces wine, 3 ounces fortified wine and 1 ounce distilled spirits. Imposes additional per unit floor stock tax. Proceeds deposited into Alcohol Surtax Fund.Appropriates revenues from surtax fund for alcohol and drug abuse prevention,treatment and recovery programs(24%);emergency medical care(25%);community mental health.programs(15%);child abuse and domestic violence prevention training and victim services(15%);alcohol and drug related law enforcement costs, other programs (21%). Prohibits affected program reductions. Summary of estimate by Legislative Analyst and Director of Finance of fiscal impact on state and local governments:Initiative will result in revenues to the Alcohol Surtax Fund of$360 million in 1990-91 and$730 million in 1991-92(a 5.8 fold increase over current revenues),declining thereafter due to decreasing alcohol consumption.Administrative costs estimated at less than $1 million annually. Increased sales tax revenues to the General Fund would be offset by decreased excise tax revenues.Local sales tax revenues will increase by$2.4 million in 1990-91,$4.7 million in 1991-92,and decline slightly in subsequent years.Unknown savings to state and local programs to extent that funded programs reduce drug and alcohol consumption and related injuries, illnesses and crimes. Unknown potential future state costs of up to hundreds of millions of dollars may result if the prohibition on funding reductions for affected services requires appropriations beyond the amount that would otherwise be provided in future budgets.

It is so gratifying to know that some of that beautiful area is being preserved. Names like Woodside, Portola Valley and Ravenswood brought back memories of school districts my husband worked with while at Stanford. You must have been ecstatic at the passage of Proposition 70. O.P.R.A. and Dora. Schmidt have been working to get some firm state money for Ohio. I have seen Don and Jan several times. They stayed with me at the new condo this summer and again in December. I am interested in your workshop in 1988 to resolve trail use conflicts. We, too , have the problem and have found no easy solutions. We would be interested to know what came out of your meeting(s) and what is working for you. This is a levy campaign year for us and so is and will be unusually busy until November but I'm sure several. Board of of us will get to the Special Park District Forum in Park Commissioners May. Perhaps we ' ll see you there.
