The motion passed 5 to 0.
President Crowder called a recess of the meeting at 8: 00 P.M. and
reconvened the meeting at 8: 15 P.M.
C. Workshop - Continued Discussion on Filling of General
Manager's Position (R-93-59)
P. Siemens noted that the list for characteristics desirable
in a new general manager were generated at the previous
workshop held on April 14 .
Geoff Ball, facilitator for the workshop, said that the task
at hand is to continue to refine the various characteristics
of a general manager and rank importance of the criteria.
He suggested the Board vote on each of the characteristics
as to whether they are a: "Must" (something that, if the
candidate did not meet the criteria or have the
Meeting 93-09 Page 3
characteristic in significant degree, the candidate simply
wasn't to be considered) ; "Want" (things that are very
important but wouldn't necessarily disqualify a person) ;
"Nice" (great if they also had this) ; and Set Aside (not
sure what characteristic is/means -- put aside for now) .
He said that characteristics generated at the April 14
meeting could be moved to a different group of
characteristics and that wording could be up-graded or
refined.
Geoff Ball asked for additional characteristics that the
public would like to propose. The additions were
incorporated into the list, some characteristics were moved
to more appropriate categories, and then Board members rated
each characteristic into the categories of Must, Want, Nice
and Set Aside. The list was then distributed.
E. Emling asked if it would be possible for members of the
public to participate in some way in the initial screening
of candidates. B. Crowder noted that it has been suggested
that a Board committee or Board committee and a blue ribbon
committee or a blue ribbon committee be used to narrow the
field of candidates. She said that decision has not yet
been made.
B. Crowder stated the Board's consensus to schedule another
workshop for May 26 and that individual Board members submit
changes to the list and job description to staff by May 12
for consolidation and editing.
P. Siemens noted that there are principles in the Sipel
study that the Board may want to articulate but may not want
to continue using that title because everyone is not
familiar with the study. The Board concurred that
"organizational improvement plan" appropriately describes
the focus of the study.
VII. INFORMATIONAL REPORTS
W. de Wit reported he had attended a meeting moderated by San
Mateo County Supervisor Mary Griffin on the state budget. He
said it was attended by many mayors, chamber of commerce
representatives, union, and realtors who are against the state
shifting money away from local government. He said he had
received the J.C. Penny Golden Rule Award and an award from the
Junior League of Palo Alto.
G. Babbitt said that the volunteer recognition event was very
successful with good attendance and a good hike.
B. Crowder reported that she and R. Anderson met with current
tenants of Thornewood to discuss items of mutual concern and said
the committee should meet again. She also suggested that the Dog
Committee schedule a meeting.
C. Britton reported that money has been budgeted for one Board
member to attend the special Park Districts Forum in Akron, Ohio
in June. The Board agreed that no Board member would attend in
the interest of conserving budget funds.
Meeting 93-09 Page 4
J. Escobar reported an injury accident to a hiker at Picchetti
Ranch Area. He also noted that the City of Mountain View will be
the dispatcher for the District's radio communication system
starting May 1.
R. Anderson reported that the mitigation enhancement grant was
recommended for funding, but at a level below available grants in
northern California and therefore, not likely to be funded. He
said the ISTEA grant was ranked medium priority in funding but
many more projects were ranked higher so it will probably not be
funded either.
M. Smith reported that a new general information brochure has
been printed and distributed a copy to each Board member.
VIII. CLOSED SESSION
C. Britton announced that litigation matters to be discussed in
Closed Session fell under Section 54956.9 (c) , potential

Subject: Protection of Devil's Canyon - San Mateo County ,
Dear Ms. Sheehan: '
I received your letter regarding the wonderful open space qualities of Devil's Canyon in San
Mateo County, and the need for its protection. The board and staff of the District are well
aware of the scenic qualities and sensitive resources of this area, which we typically refer to as
the Acronico Property, after the owner's name. We agree that the acquisition of this site for
public open space would be extremely desirable. It would make an excellent addition to the
adjacent 900 acre Long Ridge Open Space Preserve. We have been negotiating with the owner
of this property for some time, and hope eventually to acquire it.
The District's financial ability to,acquire property is currently constrained by several large and
significant land purchases that have been made or committed. Our finances may be further
constrained if the state retains a significant portion of the District's tax revenues to balance its
budget, as has been proposed. One bright spot on the horizon is an initiative proposed by the
California Planning and Conservation League, which may be placed on the ballot in June, 1994.
This measure would provide almost$1.9 billion statewide to continue the acquisition, protection
and improvement of parks and open space lands. The District would get a significant amount
of money that would allow us to complete key purchases like Acronico/Devil's Canyon. Until
that time you can be assured that we are doing everything in our power to secure the protection
of this beautiful and sensitive property from development.
Thank you for your interest in the District and its open space program.
Sincerely,
Betsy Crowder

Yesterday evening at your meeting I again
sin had to complain
about being unable to hear, and I was not the only one.
I request that you immediatly do one of two things:
1 . All directors and staff take elocution lessons so that
all members of the public at your meetings are able to hear
what is said.
2. Install an adequate public address system with sufficient
microphones for board, staff and public, to ensure that all
members of the public hear " your proceedings.

Dear Harry:
The District Board and staff have been attempting to solve the
voice amplification problem you addressed in your letter of April
29. We are continuing to look for a solution that is adequate,
simple to operate, and economical.
The staff has encountered problems in attempting to improve the
sound because of the size of the room. As you have said, it is
too large for everyone to be heard throughout the room without
amplifiers. It also seems to be too small for a full system that
would not require technical support during meetings; and there
was significant feedback when we set up a mid-range system.
The Board's meetings are an important opportunity for you and
other interested members of the public to hear District reports
and discussions. We recognize, as well, that the meetings are
your opportunity to be heard. Please be assured that we are
committed to improving the situation.
Thank you for your continuing interest in the District.

RE: Mariani Ranch,proposed development
Dear Sir/Madam:
As residents of Portola Valley, we are extremely concerned about the potential
development of the Mariani Ranch property. We moved to Portola Valley to enjoy the
lack of congestion, rural setting and open space. Portola Valley is one of the few
remaining suburban areas which has successfully deterred over-development and
preserved open spaces in their natural state.
We strongly urge your support in preventing destruction of our open spaces in order to
preserve the beauty and tranquillity of Portola Valley life as we now know it and for
future generations. We feel that the environmental, public safety and planning issues
raised by this proposed development deserves serious and in-depth consideration.
It is our intent to take whatever actions are appropriate in order to help preserve the
Mariani Ranch property, Portola Valley overall and the surrounding open spaces. We
hope thatA the Portola Valley Planning Commission possesses the good judgment and
insight necessary to deter further development activity which would forever destroy our
area while presenting future generations with significant problems to resolve as a result of
over-development.
Very truly yours,
Michael A. Reich

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Reich:
The Board of Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District considered your
letter relative to the proposed Blue Oak Subdivision development of the Portola Valley
Partners property, also known as the former Mariani property. At our meeting of January
28, 1993, members of the Committee to Save the Mariani Ranch gave us an excellent
presentation on the property and its desirability for preservation as permanent open space.
Also, the agenda for our meeting of May 26, 1993 is proposed to include a presentation by
the Open Space Advocates group to bring the Board up to date on the status on several
properties in San Mateo County, including the Mariani property.
While this property does not connect with any District holdings, we are certainly sympathetic
to any local efforts to preserve portions, or all, of this land as permanent open space.
Because of the District's focus on regional open space projects and the present lack of funds,
we cannot offer any District acquisition money. However, we have directed staff to work
with the committee on funding alternatives, which we hope will prove to be fruitful. The
District might be willing to participate in the management of the property, or even hold title,
should it be acquired as a result of local preservation efforts.
Thank you for your interest in the District and it's open space programs, if you desire
further information, please don't hesitate to cal me, my home number is 851-0410.

Meeting 93-10
May 12, 1993
AGENDA ITEM
Proposed Property Management Agreement with Peninsula Open Space Trust and Save-the-
Redwoods League for the Former Phleger Property
ACTING GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the Board President to sign the attached property management agreements for the
former Phleger property.
DISCUSSION
On August 5, 1991, Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST) acquired the 1,224-acre Phleger
property in San Mateo County. POST acquired the property for eventual transfer to the
National Park Service for inclusion in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Fee title
to a 203-acre portion of the property is currently held by Save-the-Redwoods League (SRL)
to secure their contribution to the project. In the interim, POST and Save-the-Redwoods
League have asked the District to manage the property in conjunction with the ongoing
management of the surrounding open space preserves (see attached April 12, 1993 letter from
Audrey C. Rust, Executive Director, Peninsula Open Space Trust).
Description
The property is located north of Purisima Creek Redwoods Open Space Preserve and borders
Huddart County Park to the east. Access is limited to the existing Woodside Trails Club
trails. The only public road frontage is on Highway 35, Skyline Boulevard.
Use and Management
The property is currently closed to the public. Under the management agreement with POST
and SRL, the District would be obligated to routinely patrol the property and to prohibit
unauthorized use. Gates, fencing, and signs, if necessary, will be placed where appropriate.
District staff has reviewed the management needs of the property with POST. Staff does not
anticipate that management of this property will significantly impact the workload of the field
staff.
Trails on the property are used and maintained by the Woodside Trails Club. Under the
management agreement, the club's historic involvement with the trails would continue.

AGENDA ITEM
Amendment to the Use and Management Plan for Long Ridge Open ac Preserve
ACTING GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
1. Amend the Use and Management Plan to include the recomme ations listed below.
DISCUSSION
At your December 7, 1983 meeting, you authorized purchase of a 182-acre property whereby
the District would retain an easement over the property and Sempervirens Fund would hold
fee title. The parcel is located in Santa Cruz County. At your meeting of April 24, 1991
(see report R-91-52, dated April 18, 1991) you exercised the District option to purchase fee
title to the property from Sempervirens Fund. In April, 1992 the property was annexed into
the District. Escrow for transfer of fee title to the District closed on April 6, 1993.
Sempervirens Fund has used the hickory oak ridge area as a gathering spot for various fund
raising events. They would like to continue to use the hickory oak ridge area for such
events. The use and management plan for Long Ridge Open Space Preserve should be
amended to reflect this use.
In addition, the 182-acre easement was dedicated as public open space at your January 22,
1986 meeting. The fee title interests should now be considered for dedication.
USE AND MANAGEMENT PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS
1.0 Special Activities
1.1 Sempervirens Fund shall be allowed to use the hickory oak ridge area for special
events, given they first apply for a District use permit and comply with District
regulations governing such activities.

1992-1993 Program Evaluation
ACTING GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATI
Accept staff's program evaluation report. 4
Discussion: The attached program evaluation material covers the 1992-1993 fiscal year. In
November 1991, you agreed to continue the 1991-1992 action plan through the 1992-1993 fiscal
year, with additional projects or project changes being reflected in the 1992-1993 budget.
As with all public agencies throughout the state, the District's Board and staff spent a significant
amount of time during the 1992-1993 fiscal year addressing the state's budget crisis and its
potential impact on the District's funding. Shortly after the adoption of the 1992-1993 state
budget in September 1992, the Board and staff began preparing for future revenue cuts due to
the on-going imbalance of the state's budget. The Board and staff elected to place a hold on all
hiring, capital improvement projects, and acquisitions pending a budget review. In preparation
for threatened revenue reductions, the Budget Committee and management team, with input from
staff, participated in a ten-week process of reviewing remaining 1992-1993 operating expenses.
The result was an overall 18 percent reduction in operating expenses -- reducing the operating
budget to $4.5 million.
You adopted the new action plan for the 1993-1994 fiscal year at your March 24, 1993 meeting.

OPEN SPACE ACQUISITION PROGRAM
Subprograms
A. Negotiations and Special Projects
B. Enterprise
To Implement the
BASIC POLICY OBJECTIVE:
The District will purchase or otherwise acquire interest in the maximum feasible amount of strategic open
space within the District planning areas.
General Program Emphasis for 1992-1993
As a result of dwindling funds for open space land acquisition, the program's emphasis will be to work
closely with the controller to scrutinize carefully each potential acquisition to focus efforts on the highest
priority projects while minimizing expenditures on non-grant funded, lower priority acquisitions.
PROGRESS:
• Three months into the 1992-1993 fiscal year, all new land acquisition projects were frozen. Only
high priority projects were to be considered by the Board and then only on a case-by-case basis.
As a result, only three of the ten transactions closing during fiscal year 1992-1993 occurred after
Jul 1, 1992. The most significant one was the completion of the Vidovich transaction. These
Y g P
transactions totaled 848.29 acres at a total cost of $10,466,667, of which $8,500,000 was for
Vidovich.

Negotiations and Special Projects Subprogram
Objective
The objective of the Negotiations and Special projects Subprogram is to provide for the acquisition of all
real property rights necessary to secure a recreational greenbelt in the foothills and baylands, including
rounding out and improving public access to existing preserves and connecting District preserves with other
public lands.
Key Projects and Activities
1. Convert the budgeted funds in the New Land Commitments budget category into open space lands
focusing on the highest priority properties, including rounding out and improving public access to
existing preserves and connecting trails at desirable prices, balancing the desirability of the potential
acquisition with the availability of limited funds, including, where possible, private financing with
favorable terms.
PROGRESS:
• Rounding Out: 459 acres for $ 1,686,667 ($ 3,675/acre)
• Public Access: 0 acres
• Trail Connections: 390 acres for 8,780,000 (22,513/acre)
• Total 849 acres for $110,466,667 ($12,328/acre)
• Owner Financed: $ 0
• Gifts and Grants $ 1,780,000
2. Concentrate acquisition efforts on those parcels that will assist with completion of the Ridge Trail
system within the District's sphere of influence.
PROGRESS:
• The former Davis property was acquired as an addition to Sierra Azul Open Space Preserve.
• The Norton purchase contract was approved for Russian Ridge Open Space Preserve.
3. Work with Peninsula Open Space Trust to complete at least one acquisition project that significantly
furthers the District's overall open space goals.
PROGRESS:
• Continued to work with POST on the acquisition of the Phleger property.
• POST participated in the Glaubiger exchange at Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve.
• POST acquired the former Liles property in the Sierra Azul Open Space Preserve.
4. Seek and encourage agencies and groups to undertake sole or joint acquisition projects which will
preserve additional open space such as a joint project with the Town of Los Gatos.
PROGRESS: _
• Sempervirens Fund agreed to extend option - Long Ridge Open Space Preserve.
• Azzarello cooperative acquisition with Santa Clara County - El Sereno Open Space Preserve
was completed.
• Obtained option to acquire the Johnson and General Convention properties in Sierra Azul
Open Space Preserve for possible purchase if funding received from a successful Planning
and Conservation League measure on the 1994 ballot.

Enterprise Subprogram
Objective
The objective of the Enterprise Subprogram is to manage all the District's revenue producing activities in
such a way as to maximize income from enterprise accounts consistent with Open Space Management
policies and to explore new compatible activities.
Key Projects and Activities
1. Administer all leases and rental accounts, updating rental rates and other lease conditions as
opportunities arise, to maximize income consistent with Open Space Management policies.
PROGRESS:
• Rental rates increased an average of 4% to reflect cost of living changes and market
conditions. The total revenue increase over prior year from residential program was
approximately $35,000, including new rental accounts.
• Completed renovation of new offices at 330 Distel Circle without losing tenants. Rental
income currently covers District operating and maintenance costs to occupy building.
2. Carry out maintenance and improvements to rental properties to keep buildings and grounds in a
safe, sanitary, and attractive condition, and to increase net rental income.
PROGRESS:
• Expenses reduced by $50,000 from prior year, with total vacancy rate of two unit months.
• Negotiated agreement with communications tenants to share the cost of access road
maintenance. The tenants will pay $10,000.
3. Prepare cost-benefit studies on a case by case basis as major repair, improvement and/or rental
decisions arise.
PROGRESS:
• Priced Smith, Bean, and Landre properties for long-term occupancy, and initiated active
program to market them. No sale to date.

PLANNING PROGRAM
To Implement the
BASIC POLICY OBJECTIVE:
The District will follow a land management policy that provides proper care of open space land, allowing
public access appropriate to the nature of the land and consistent with ecological values.
General Program Emphasis for 1992-1993
The emphasis of the Planning Program for 1992-1993 was implementation of the resource management
policies and the trail use standards. Continuing implementation of grant-funded development projects was
also a high priority.
PROGRESS:
• The Planning Program has focused on refining draft resource management policies, and formulating
and implementing resource management projects for various open space preserves, particularly
where opportunities exist for grants or other outside funding.
• Staff has drafted trail use guidelines and is currently applying them to various preserves.
• To date, no comprehensive resource plan has been submitted for Board review.
• The final stage of grant-funded projects at the Picchetti Ranch Area, Russian Ridge, and Pulgas
Ridge are being initiated.
• Applications for Caltrans-administed grants have been prepared and submitted for staging area
acquisition and development for the Sierra Azul Open Space Preserve.
• Major activities completed not incorporated in the original program emphasis are preparation of a
plan for access for persons with disabilities, in compliance with the 1990 Americans with
Disabilities Act and revision of the adopted budget to reduce costs in response to the threat of
significant cuts in revenue due to the state budget crisis. Also, research and negotiation was
conducted to address issues in the administration of the District's historic leases.

OPERATIONS PROGRAM
To Implement the
BASIC POLICY OBJECTIVE:
The District will follow a land management policy that provides proper care of open space
land, allowing public access appropriate to the nature of the land and consistent with
ecological values.
General Program Emphasis for 1992-1993
The emphasis of the Operations Program is to provide for responsible stewardship and safe use of
District lands, as well as to enhance visitor appreciation and participation.
PROGRESS:
• The Operations Program continues to provide for the on-site operational needs of District
lands. Maintenance and construction crews realigned several trails to accommodate multiple
use and improve trail safety.
• At Monte Bello Open Space Preserve, crews constructed a trail bridge, improving the all-
weather link to Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve.
• Improvements to existing structures include the renovation of apartments at El Corte de
Madera and Sierra Azul for use as ranger residences.
• Patrol staff continues to attempt to mitigate trail-use conflicts through visitor education and
active enforcement of District use regulations.
• The docent program began offering docent training twice a year to provide for increased
interest in the program.
• A core of dedicated volunteers continues to perform a variety of field work projects. The
use of volunteers for administrative tasks increased in all programs in the past year.

QMrations Program
Objective
Provide responsible stewardship of all District lands by furnishing those public safety, maintenance, and
resource protection services necessary and appropriate for effective management of District lands.
Key Projects and Activities
1. Draft a new staffing plan for Board consideration based on the Strategic Plan for the Nineties that
includes field staff development to cover open space stewardship needs and that open space
management personnel support needs.
PROGRESS:
• The reorganization of the operations program is complete insofar as current budgetary
constraints permit. Two lead open space technician positions were approved and
implemented as a conversion of two existing open space technician positions. The full-time
docent coordinator position, delayed because of budgetary concerns, was filled in February.
• The development of a ten-year operations staffing plan is pending, awaiting clarification of
the District's financial future.
2. Implement adopted ranger field operations manual.
PROGRESS:
• The field operations manual has been implemented. Sections on evidence and search
procedures subsequently added.
• Additions and revisions to the manual will continue periodically as the staff formalizes other
field procedures.
3. Begin implementing adopted resource management policies and plans for specific high priority
projects District-wide.
PROGRESS:
• In the absence of adopted resource management policies, a variety of small resource
management related projects primarily focusing on erosion control, revegetation, and exotic
species eradication were conducted with planning program support.
4. Begin implementing adopted trail policies and guidelines.
PROGRESS:
• Since the Board adoption of trail use guidelines, operations staff has been assisting the
planning program with the trail inventory process.
• The development of a volunteer trail patrol program is underway. Recruiting is planned for
summer, with a training program in the fall. Ranger bicycle patrol is also being studied.
• Rules and regulations revision recommendations are being finalized for Board review at their
the May 26 meeting.
5. Develop plans for a new radio system to meet the District's primary communications needs.
PROGRESS:
• The District began use of the new system on May 1, 1993 with the City of Mountain View
providing all dispatch services.

PROGRESS:
• The June 1992 event received moderate publicity and attended by approximately 75 people.
Report R-93-54 Page 12
5. Revise Visitor's Guide.
PROGRESS:
• The Visitor's Guide has not been revised, due to staffing changes and the large quantity of
the "old" guides still available for distribution. Proposals for an entirely new Visitor's Guide
(as opposed to a revision) will be forthcoming.

Organizational Relations Subprogram
Objective
The objective of the Organizational Relations Subprogram is to inform other public agencies and private
organizations about the District and to secure legislation to protect the Districts funding and otherwise aid
g g P g
in the accomplishment of the District's goals.
Key Projects and Activities
1. Accomplish or make significant progress on priority items in District's legislative program.
PROGRESS:
• Successfully exempted District from state budget cuts through close work with District's
lobbyist and calls and letters to appropriate legislators.
• Successful in helping to defeat harmful legislation and to have other bills amended to meet
District needs.
• As noted in general manager's Final Status Report on th Legislative Program, the state
budget crisis dominated the District's legislative program and therefore less was achieved on
other aspects of the adopted legislative program.
• Informational meetings with members of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors took
place in March, 1993.
• The District has taken steps towards the possibility of a funding measure on the June, 1994
ballot.
• A public opinion poll and a visitor survey have been undertaken.
• Basic research into funding options has been done.
• Initial compilation of voter statistics has been accomplished and some primary research into
land use and parcel counts completed.
• Contact made with public affairs managers or public information officers at other park, open
space or land conservation organizations.
2. Produce the 1991-1992 Annual Report as part of one issue of Open Space.
PROGRESS:
• The 1991-1992 Annual Report was printed, and distributed with a letter from the President
of the Board of Directors. The production schedule will now consist of only one issue of
Open Space, as an annual report. The next issue will be printed in late 1993.
3. Hold joint meetings with the Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties Parks and Recreation
Commissions.
PROGRESS:
• These meetings did not take place. However, liaison with these and other boards and
commissions is part of the overall public affairs plan that is being implemented.
• An additional key project is the District's involvement in the Bay Area Open Space Council,
a consortium of open space authorities working to coordinate the broad issues affecting its
members. The general manager and public affairs manager are representing the District on
this consortium. In addition, the District is involved in an advisory capacity with the
formation of the new Santa Clara County Open Space Authority and providing assistance as
needed.

Media Relations Subprogram
b'ective
The objective of the Media Relations Subprogram is to inform the public as fully as possible about the
District's purposes and activities through news stories, features, and public service announcements in the
press, and on radio and television.
Key Projects and Activities
1. Write and produce press releases covering Board meetings, special meetings, District policies,
docent walks and volunteer activities for the public in accordance with the District's policy statement
regarding open information and cooperation.
PROGRESS:
• A "metered" press release program implemented as part of the public affairs plan. Since
implementation, over twenty press releases and countless follow up calls have been provided
to the media.
• Comprehensive lists of media contacts compiled.
• Personal contact with the press has increased.
• District is regularly mentioned in the Government Calendar listings of many papers and has
received three mentions in the Mercury News' Leigh Weimers column, one of the most
widely read columns within the District boundaries.
• District successfully worked to gain positive publicity for the "mortgage burning" celebrating
the completion of the Pulgas Ridge assessment district payments.
• As a result of these activities, overall media coverage of the District has increased.
2. Publicize availability of District sites at a level consistent with the Board's policy for Relative
Emphasis of District Sites.
PROGRESS:
• Completed as ongoing work. The public relations plan outlines various strategies and
methods for generating a higher level of public awareness of the District.
• The District's speaker's bureau has reached nearly 500 people.
• The District display is regularly scheduled at corporate and civic events.
• Public affairs is working with the planning and operations programs to increase use of the
Daniels Nature Center.
• Public information meetings are being held as needed, such as those for the Vidovich
acquisition, Rancho San Antonio eucalyptus removal, Olive Tree Lane access, etc.
• The public affairs plan also calls for "town meetings" that will provide a forum for the
public to provide direct input to the District's Board and management. These meetings may
be postponed until a new general manager is hired and could then be publicized as "meet the
general manager" meetings.
• Overall, an increasingly high level of outreach has been accomplished and District collateral
materials are being distributed at a much higher rate than was previously the case.
3. Publicize the District's Twentieth Anniversary.
PROGRESS:
• The Twentieth Anniversary committee continues to meet and is making plans for a final
event to complete celebration of the 20th Anniversary.
Report R-93-54 Page 15

placed at selected preserves.
• As noted above, a significant amount of press coverage was generated for the 20th
Anniversary through the Founder's Day Dinner and through personal contact with the media.
4. Publicizes special Board meeting workshops to be held in an appropriate planning area well in
P� g P
advance of meeting.
PROGRESS:
• Publicity for the August 19 Corte de Madera workshop began on July 29, allowing 21 days
advance notice for attendance. Publicity included notifying appropriate newspapers and
directly notifying affected neighbors.

as to maximize accomplishment of the goals of the District within existing financial and other
constraints.
General Program Emphasis for 1992-1993
Implement organizational restructuring and related infrastructure needs as approved for 1992-
1993 for the Strategic Plan for the Nineties.
PROGRESS:

0 After several rounds of drafts of the Strategic Plan for the Nineties, the final draft
of the plan was presented to the Board in July, 1992. Due to funding uncertainties
created by the state budget crisis, discussion of the proposed plan was put on hold.
The Board subsequently approved the plan in January 1993, with the addition of an
overall policy objective to protect and defend the District's existing property tax
revenue from reduction by the state.

I,.- State Budget Crisis Impact On The
Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District
• The District depends almost entirely on property tax revenues, unlike many other special
districts that have additional sources such as fees or charges. Therefore, an equal percentage
reduction in tax revenues would take a much higher proportion of our total funding, as compared
to these other districts.
• The possible revenue reduction could amount to over one-third of the District's projected
property tax revenues of$10 million in fiscal year 1993-94, and would have a devastating effect
on this voter-mandated program.
• Any such reduction would cause the District to curtail all new acquisitions of open space, to
consider the possibility of extensive staff reductions and to look at significantly reduced
maintenance and/or closure of open space preserves.
• The District has already put all major acquisitions on hold; any reductions in the annual
budget will prohibit further acquisition and preservation of open space by the District.
• As a non-enterprise entity, the District has no other regular source of revenue and since the
District imposes no user fees or charges, there are no means of directly replacing lost property
tax revenue.
• A number of critical projects for the public benefit have already been postponed or canceled
due to the threat of this reduction in revenue.
• The District is a regional entity, encompassing significant portions of Santa Clara and San
Mateo Counties, as well as a portion of Santa Cruz County.
• Our surveys show that a portion of our visitors come from outside the District boundaries,
making this a special district of truly regional significance.
• The District manages state-owned lands, including portions of Burleigh-Murray State Park,
tidelands and certain Caltrans rights-of-way.

Dear
The Midpeni la Regional Open Space District, now in its 20th year, is a "-county special district
which has acquired ove 5,000 acres of open space in 23 preserves, with publ' access 365 days a year. The
state is seriously consideri a property tax shift from local agencies which w d negatively impact the District.
Current proposals inc de transfer of art, all or more than 'bailout" funds provided to local agencies
P P g
via AB 8. Property taxes are th only significant, ongoing sourc f revenue for this district, and it is important
to reiterate to you the devastatin effect that such a decrease ' revenues would induce.
Loss of only the "bailout" nds would cause a District to freeze all new acquisitions of open space,
to implement staff reductions, and t look at sign eantly reduced in and/or closure of open space
P
preserves, which would reduce ubli access seriously compromise fire and emergency response in the
P Y P g Y P
mid eninsula/Santa Cruz Mountains are Fu er, we would lose our ability t borrow P ty o bo o money or issue bonds,
which has historically been the source fo ch of our acquisition funding.
Unfortunately, the District h no vi ble means of replacing this loss of revenue. Out of the District's
projected property tax income of$1 million ( scal year 1993-94), about$5.9 million is already pledged to debt
service for previous land acquisiti , as author' by State law. Our current "bare-bones" budget for operations
is $4.5 million, which leaves s no room for a ditional budget reductions. Loss of the "bailout" funds will
compromise the District's ab' ity to carry out the v ters' mandate.
This special district has a very low propert tax rate, at 1.7 cents/$100 of assessed value. We are
mandated by the voters t provide the unique function o acquiring and preserving open space, and the facilities
we provide are of local, regional and statewide significa e. I urge you to reject any budget proposal that does
not exempt the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District om the loss of AB 8 funds, or provide for complete
replacement of any loss of revenue.

Funding History and Profile
of the
Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District
• In 1973, voters overwhelmingly approved formation of the District with property tax funding
set at the equivalent of 2.5 cents per $100 of assessed value.
• After 1978's Proposition 13, the District lost about 60 percent of its annual property tax
revenue.
• By shifting school property tax money to cities, counties and special districts, and augmenting
school funds directly, the state was able to provide so-called "bailout" funds. This still left the
District with an annual property tax revenue reduction of approximately 32 percent.
• This put the District's property tax revenue rate at 1.7 cents per $100 of assessed value, one
of the lowest property tax rates in the state.
• In fiscal year 1993-94, the District will receive approximately $10 million in property tax
revenues, of which an estimated $3.6 million is "bailout" money.
Y
• Debt service for past notes and bond issues will amount to about 58 percent of the 1993-94
property tax revenues, leaving a minimal amount for maintenance, operations, development and
new open space acquisitions.

Dear Assemblyman Hauser:
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District, I wish
to express our strong support for AB 1052.
The bill would allow public agencies to acquire agricultural land without the potential of
providing relocation assistance to lessees of the property, provided that the agency honors all
I,r
the terms of the lease.
The bill proposes a common sense, equitable treatment of those parties holding leasehold
interests of agricultural land without imposing a financial burden on those public entities that can
live with the terms of the lease.
We appreciate your carrying this legislation.
Sincerely yours,
Herbert Grench

TO: All Staff
FROM: Craig Britton, Acting General Manager
Attached for your review is the refined listing of general manager characteristics developed at
last night's workshop. The five Board members present (Nonette and Teena were absent) sorted
the characteristics into the categories of:
MUST Something that, if the candidate did not meet this criteria or have this
characteristic in significant degree, the candidate simply wasn't to be considered.
WANT Things that are very important but wouldn't necessarily disqualify a person if
didn't have.
NICE Great if they also had this.
SET ASIDE Not sure what characteristic is/means -- put aside for now.
The next step is for individual Board members to review the characteristics and relay what
wording changes and/or consolidation of characteristics they'd propose. The Board will also be
submitting recommended additions, changes, and deletions in the portions of the general manager
job specification (attached) that was part of the April 28 packet.
After receiving input from the Board by May 12, Jean and Deirdre will be consolidating all the
information for presentation to the Board on May 26. The Board scheduled another workshop
for the 26th with Geoff Ball again facilitating the session.
Please give me a call or stop by if you have any questions.

Edward and Idonna Snow
24871 Olive Tree Lane
Los Altos Hills, CA 94024-6427
Dear Mr. & Mrs. Snow: '
As you requested, the District has researched the issue of access over Olive Tree
Lane. First I'd like to summarize our findings on patrol access.
The District believes it has a right to use Olive Tree Lane for patrol and emergency
access to the former Vidovich property. Such access is necessary to the District and, we
believe, beneficial to all property owners. Efficient patrol patterns enhance the pubiic'safety
and encourage patrol attention to diverse areas of-the preserve. The District's primary
interest at this time is in a continuation of the past use of Olive Tree Lane that provides
access for the District employees, agents, and contractors.
The District's private easement derives from long established use of the easement by
the District and by the former owners of the District property. The District and prior owners
of the District property have used the Olive Tree Lane access whenever they had occasion or
need to do so. For many years the District used the access almost daily with the knowledge
and support of the former owner, George Neary. The District is also aware that each prior
owner of the property, the Nearys and the Vidoviches, used the access from Olive Tree Lane
routinely and maintained a lock on-the gate for that purpose. The District's use is well
documented. As far as the District has been able to determine, that access has never been
substantially interfered with by any of the owners of the Olive Tree Hill West subdivision.
The period of use far exceeds the five years necessary to create use by prescription.
While the District believes this right of access could be established in court if ,
necessary, all parties should be able to work out an amicable agreement as to the level,
nature and frequency of use. The District is always willing to listen to the concerns of the "
District's neighbors and to attempt to work out solutions that will alleviate those concerns.
This includes possible participation in the cost of maintaining the road in a manner consistent
with the District's level of use of the road.
Second, with regard to the right of the public for access on Olive Tree Lane, we are
aware of facts that support a right of the public to use the street. However, it must be
emphasized that it is not the District's goal to have Olive Tree Lane declared a public street. _
The District respects the privacy of the neighborhoods in all of the areas adjacent to our
preserves, and to the extent possible, mitigates the impact of the public use of the property.

Olive Tree Lane, whether public or private, is clearly not designed or situated to provide for
public access. There is no space for public parking. There is no gate for public entry, and
the District has no intention to install one. The District will continue to enforce the policy
that this is not a point for public entry to, or exit from, the preserve. However, if local
residents regularly use this point for entry, and other parties mount a legal challenge, the
residents might have difficulty legally preventing other persons from walking on Olive Tree
Lane to or from the preserve.
The District's belief that the public may have a claim of access is clarified by
reviewing the legal interpretation of the term "public street." A public street is merely a
street that the public has a right to use. A public street is not necessarily a street that is
accepted by, or maintained by, a governmental entity. Public rights in a street can be
created by implication from the acts of the owner of the property and of the public. For
I example, a public street may be created where an owner intends to create a public street by
offering it for dedication in a subdivision map and the public then uses the street without
objection. This is true even where a governmental entity has rejected the offer of dedication.
In 1967, the Santa Clara County Superior Court heard the case of Nelson v. Dunn
P10581 - 174836. The court found that a portion of road, extending from a cul-de-sac on
Olive Tree Lane, connected two subdivision tracts (Olive Tree Hill Tract 2958 and Olive
Tree Hill West Tract 3672) and was a public street. The court based its conclusion on the
theory of common law dedication and the following factors: (1) the recorded subdivision
map showed an actual intent to dedicate the street to the public; (2) the public's acceptance
was shown by public use for an uninterrupted period since October of 1963; (3) the owner of
that section of street permitted the public to use the street, without objection, for a long
period; and (4) the circumstances of the acquiescence (permitted use) rebutted any
supposition that the use was permissive only (i.e. under a license).
It is important to note that cases in which the use has been for less than five years
require stronger proof than where the use has exceeded- five years. In Nelson v. Dunn the
court found the necessary proof although the use continued for less than five years. That use
has continued unabated ever since.
W.G. Dunn was one of the defendants in the lawsuit and he was one of the partners
who created Olive Tree Hill West. Olive Tree Lane is a street showing on the subdivision
map. The subdividers offered the street for dedication. The public's acceptance has been
implied by use, and that acceptance has been acquiesced in by the owners of the underlying
fee. When all factors are taken into consideration a court would probably conclude that all
of Olive Tree Lane is a public street by common-law dedication.
In summary, the District has provided this information because the residents of Olive
Tree Lane asked us to do so. The District does not intend to pursue the claim that Olive
Tree Lane is a public street, or to encourage public access through this route. The District's _
use of the street is unlikely to cause any significant adverse effects on the property owners,
or bearing on the,public street issue. The District does not intend to encourage public access

on the street, and if asked will state that Olive Tree Lane is not intended as a point of public
access to the District preserve. The publicity surrounding the District's purchase of the
Vidovich property has caused an increase in the public's interest in investigating ways to get
into the property. We are willing to work with you to address this problem, and it has been
our experience that in time, as the allowable access points are clarified, this activity will die
down.
I hope this information is helpful to you in understanding the District's position in this
situation. I apologize for the delay in providing it. Hopefully it will encourage you to take
advantage of our offer to replace the existing gate, which carries no obligation or expectation
with respect to public access.
Sincerely,
Randy An �erson,��
