My five years of service on the Board have been tremendously rewarding; however, the demands of my work greatly limit the time and attention that I can provide to the District. Therefore, it is time that I relinquish my seat to someone with as much dedication -- but with much more time -- to serve the Open Space District. Years of undaunted and driven devotion by the public, the board, and the staff inspired me to join the District Board. I am deeply proud to have served with and for these dedicated people who have created a world-renowned treasure of lands rich with natural, recreational, and educational opportunities despite its metropolitan influence. My leaving the District Board member by no means ends my commitment to supporting a balance of nature, beauty, and recreation in the Bay area. I have enjoyed many accomplishments on the District Board, and certainly I leave many challenges unresolved. Yet, I have absolute confidence, especially in the District's staff, that its lands and the resources will be managed as best possible. Although I may not be with you, know that I whole-heartedly support you and wish you well.

I assumed that the ban on dogs was not capricious or purposely discriminatory. So, I asked for the reasons for the ban. The conversation with the ranger raised some questions that I would appreciate having answered. She stated that a concern about dogs was the feces that they might leave behind. In view of the fact that any number of wild animals -- particularly those similar to dogs, such as coyotes and foxes -- will deposit similar scat, I ask why you consider domestic canine feces to be more objectionable? If you do so on the basis of domesticity and that they are not part of the natural biota, then I must respectfully ask how you justify allowing horses on the trails. Also, since I have not seen evidence of any sanitary facilities provided for humans, it must be assumed that human urine and feces are regularly deposited within the preserve. With respect to the potential for disease transmission, human feces must be considered to be a greater risk for humans than dog feces. With respect to the potential for disturbing wildlife, I would assume that human waste would be similar to that of any other predator, including dogs. Which leads me to my next question. She further stated thatthere was concern about disturbing wildlife. Humans are themselves 'a significant disturbance by their very presence. The mountain bikes that are allowed are a particular hazard to California Newts, Banana Slugs, snakes, toads, lizards and numerous other small animals that would not normally be stepped on by hikers; yet, you allow the bikes. However, more to the point: was this particular rationale based on any citable, veer-reviewed study by biologists or game management specialists, or was it just something the board felt to be self-evident? It is my impression that the experience of ranchers has been that individual dogs are rarely a threat to livestock and certainly never while under supervision. The problem has historically been with feral and/or domesticated animals running in packs that have been problems. The California Fish and Game Code specifically prohibits allowing dogs to harass animals that are not game animals being pursued legitimately during open season; therefore, the state provides you with a means of control . Why is it then necessary to exclude dogs for concern about them disturbing wildlife? While hiking, I noted a closed trail that specifically excluded bikes and horses because of the erosion resulting from their use. Since dogs have low impact on the terrain -- they are even easier on the ground than Vibram soles -- dogs would seem to have less permanent effects on the total system than horses or bikes. Is then political expediency the reason that you allow horses and bikes and not dogs? If you are pandering to the influence of what are typically economically-advantaged horse owners, I point out that dog owners certainly outnumber horse owners by a ratio of at least 1000 to 1 . Are you really serving the community equitably by allowing horses and not allowing dogs? Horses are usually a means of transportation. For many of us, our dogs are our friends and companions, however. we find it as objectionable to go somewhere without our dogs as some would find it to be forced to leave their children home. Do you prohibit seeing-eye dogs? Would it not be possible to at least open certain trails to dog owners? Lastly, I point out that with the more frequent attacks by mountain lions upon joggers and even bikers, you should be giving consideration to protection of users of the preserves. I could well imagine that if someone were killed or seriously hurt by a mountain lion you may well find yourself in litigation as a result of prohibiting users from any effective means of protection or deterrence from attacks. Would you rather hikers carry firearms, or be allowed dogs for protection? Sincerely, 4yde H. S n�cer Open Space MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT April 13, 1995 DRAFT RESPONSE Clyde H. Spencer PREPARED BY STAFF 2141 Muirwood Ct. FOR BOARD CONSIDERATION San Jose, CA 95132 Dear Mr. Spencer: Thank you for your March 31, 1995 letter supporting increased access for dogs on District open space preserves. The District's Board of Directors reviewed your comments at our Regular Meeting last night. Your letter has been forwarded to the Board committee appointed to investigate the issue of access for dogs. The District allows dogs on leash at 6 of our 23 preserves: Pulgas Ridge, Windy Hill, Foothills, Long Ridge, Fremont Older, and St. Joseph's Hill. Guide and service dogs under physical control, specifically licensed to assist the blind, deaf, or disabled may go anywhere on the preserves with their owners. Current access allowed evolved during the period from 1983 to 1987. Based on continued support for additional access for dogs, the Board of Director's Dog Use Committee initiated a study process in September 1993 to carefully review the current program for dog access. A summary of the current status of our review of dog access is attached for your information. During the past year and one-half, District staff and a citizen's task force, under the charge of the Dog Use Committee, have conducted extensive research on the policies and experiences of other agencies regarding dogs, and on academic or scientific research on the issue. Very little hard evidence was available and the policies and opinions ranged widely among agencies. Research is currently focused on which of our preserves might be appropriate to open up to leashed dogs and under what criteria. Also, draft criteria have been developed for reviewing potential for an experimental off-leash subarea. A public meeting before the Dog Use Committee to review the results of this research is anticipated in May. After review by the committee, the issue will come before the full Board. I appreciate your various comments on this issue, and they will be given careful consideration. Your name has been added to the list of persons to be notified of meetings regarding increased access for dogs on District preserves. I hope you will attend to further express your views.

No action is required of the Board. DISCUSSION The Legislative, Finance, and Public Affairs Committee asked staff to research the legal and tax implications of a program to accommodate Directors who wish to donate all or a portion of their monthly compensation to the District. The attached letter from Director Hanko, Chairperson of the Legislative, Finance, and Public Affairs Committee, and the attached memo from S. Schectman, District Legal Counsel, outline the results of this research. Prepared by: M. Smith, Public Affairs Manager Contact person: C.

The Committee is sending to the Board District Legal Counsel ' s memo on this subject as an informational report . We are also requesting the General Manager to comment on how he would administer such a program. The Committee suggests that each Board member should feel free to participate or not on a voluntary basis; that individual participation could be decided on monthly and anonymously (or not) according to the wishes of the individual donor. As a guide for individual recognition under this program, the Committee suggests the use of the Board' s already adopted Gifts Recognition Policy, under the section titled Unsolicited Gifts : $100 - $499 Letter signed by Board President $500 - $999 Resolution of the Board (Special Order of the Day) * * (Only if desired by donor) OpenSpace MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT MEMORANDUM April 3, 1995 TO: President Siemens and Board Members FROM: Susan M. Schectman, Legal Counsel SUBJECT: Tau. Consequences of Donation to District of Boardmembers' Compensation Issue The Board is considering a program which would allow District Boardmembers to donate all or a portion of their monthly compensation to the District. The Board has requested an opinion concerning the feasibility and tax consequences of such a program. Summary Boardmembers who wish to make a donation of their compensation to the District have two alternatives: (1) A Boardmember may elect to receive the full compensation due him or her and make a donation of all or a portion of it back to the District. The Boardmember will be taxed on the full amount of the compensation received. However, the Director will be entitled to a charitable deduction for the donation up to 50% of adjusted gross income. (2) A Director may agree in advance to forego all or a part of his or her compensation before it is earned. If this income is waived, it will not be taxable income to the Director. No charitable deduction will be available. The Director may not direct that the foregone income be applied to a designated project. However, the District can publicly recognized the special contribution made by the Director by foregoing compensation and can give special recognition to him or her by identifying the amount of cost savings and the types of projects this savings enabled the District to accomplish. This choice has the most tax advantages to the Director, yet has the same financial benefit to the District as Scenario One. This seems the better choice for a Director who wishes to forego compensation. 330 Distel Circle - Los Altos,CA 94022-1404 - Phone:415-691-1200 - FAX:415-691-0485 - E-mail: rnrosd@netcom.com Bwrc of0irectors:Pete Siemens,Mary C Davey, leena I lenslmw,Ginny Babbitt, Nonette Nanko, Betsy Crowder,Wim de Wit General Manager:L.Cr,ig Brition Discussion CAVEAT: In answering this question, I can review certain general tax principles for the Board. I am not attempting to advise any Director individually concerning his or her personal tax liability. Directors who wish to participate in this program should consult their own tax adviser to determine how such a program would affect them personally. Donation of a Directors' compensationg could fall into three scenarios with the following tax consequences: Scenario l: Director Smith is entitled to $500 in compensation for January. Smith receives the $500 and makes a $200 donation back to the District. Rem: Smith has received $500 in taxable income. The taxable income is reduced by a $200 charitable deduction. The District qualifies as a charitable organization for charitable deduction purposes. The total amount which may be donated for deduction purposes may not exceed 50% of the Director's adjusted gross income. Scenario Two: Director Smith is entitled to $500 in compensation for January. He instructs the District that he does not wish to receive $500 and instructs the District to send him only $300. Result: If a Director refuses compensation already earned, the result may very well be the same as Scenario One: the Director has received $500 in taxable income and made a $200 charitable contribution to the District. This is due to a tax principle known as the "Constructive Receipt Doctrine" which provides that a person who has earned income but refuses payment thereof is still taxable on the full income earned. However, if the Director instructs the District in advance of earning compensation that certain compensation will be waived or foregone, the Director will not be taxed on the amount of compensation foregone. A charitable deduction is not available for the amount foregone because it has never been earned. Scenario Three: Director Smith is due $500 in compensation in January. He instructs the District that he only wishes to receive $300 and instructs the District to direct the $200 he would otherwise have received to an earmarked special project of the District, such as building a trail, a memorial site, or other specified project. Result: If a Director refuses compensation already earned, the result is the same as Scenario Two: he will be taxed on the full amount earned and be entitled to $200 charitable deduction. 2 If the Director instructs the District in advance that the $200 in income will be waived, the Director should not direct the District to use the $200 he would otherwise have earned to a specific project. If he does so, he risks creating a situation where the full amount will be taxable income to him. Tax law holds that, where a person has the right to receive income but directs that it be paid elsewhere, that person is still chargeable with that income. To avoid this, the Director must make sure that the income is never earned and thus cannot be designated for expenditure on a specific project. However, even where the income is waived, the District Board of Directors can recognize Directors who have foregone compensation by giving them special public recognition. For example, annually, the Board could recognize such Directors, acknowledge the amount of compensation foregone and the resulting savings to the District, and acknowledge the types of projects the Board was able to accomplish as a result. If a Director wishes to participate in this type of program, the arrangements should be set up properly in writing prior to earning income. The Director's instructions can be accepted by the Board as an agenda item or by the General Manager. cc: Craig Britton 3 Opery Space R-95-53 MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT Meeting 95-08 April 12, 1995 AGENDA ITEM Authorization to Proceed with Phase Two for Sale of Su ius Property at Teague Hill Open Space Preserve P . GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Authorize the general manager to execute the attached addendum to the contract with Enshallah Developments, Inc., real estate and development consultants, to continue to assist and represent the District in its dealings with the Town of Woodside to secure the necessary approvals to proceed with the sale of the surplus property at Teague Hill Open Space Preserve. 2. Approve a maximum $20,000 budget expenditure for Phase Two of Enshallah's services and a maximum$5,000 budget expenditure for engineering services and application filing fees for a total additional authorization of $25,000. DISCUSSION When the Teague Hill property in Woodside was originally purchased by the District in 1988, the acquisition was approved with the understanding that the District could not afford the total purchase price of $7,500,000 without recapture of a significant portion of the purchase price (see report R-88-59, dated May 15, 1988 and report R-88-87, dated July 18, 1988). Two 35- acre parcels were created by the District in the least objectionable part of the property to be sold for residential subdivision. At your regular meeting of October 26, 1994, you authorized the general manager and legal counsel to work with the Town of Woodside to use a lot line adjustment mechanism to establish up to six legal lots while preserving the maximum possible amount of public open space. You also authorized the general manager to negotiate a contract with Enshallah Developments, Inc. in the amount of $10,000 to assist and represent the District in working with the Town of Woodside and in marketing the property (see report R-94-105). Geraldine Steinberg of Enshallah has completed the first phase of research and discussions with Woodside officials. She has obtained very positive results in clarifying the potential and process for using lot line adjustments to create saleable parcels. This effort centered on a very detailed review of the history of parcelization of the property since the Spanish land grant to the present and review of the District's powers under the Subdivision Map Act. Based on these discussions, Woodside Town officials have agreed that the District has a basis for filing an application for certificates of compliance on up to seven parcels (six saleable parcels and the open space remainder). This application is approved administratively. The certificates would then be 330 Distel Circle • Los Altos, CA 94022-1404 * Phone: 41.5-691-1200 - FAX:41.5-691-0485 - E-mail:mrosd(0,netcom.com � Board of Directors:Pete Siemens,Mary C'.Davey,Tema I lenshaw,Ginny 13abbitt,Ntmette Hanko,Betsy Crowder,Wim de Wit General Manager.t.Craig Britton R-95-53 Page 2 recorded with the county. Subsequently, Enshallah would submit a lot line adjustment map for review by the Planning Commission for conformance with zoning. After approval by the Planning Commission, the map would be recorded and the legally saleable parcels would exist. They would still be subject to the proving of access, geotechnical, and septic system feasibility at the building permit stage. Enshallah's initial $10,000 budget for services to represent the District has been expended. A new authorization of$20,000 to continue these services through the submittal and review phase (Phase Two) is requested at this time. Costs will also be incurred for preparation of the lot line adjustment map by Brian, Kangas, Foulk, Civil Engineers, who have performed the previous studies of the site for the District and others, for filing fees for certificates of compliance with the Town, and for a preliminary soil percolation assessment. These costs are estimated roughly at $5,000 at this time, for a total requested additional authorization of $25,000. There is sufficient budget in the planning consultants category to cover these costs. All of Enshallah's fees would ultimately be credited against their real estate commission should they represent the District in the sale of the property. Prepared by: Randy Anderson, Planning Manager Contact person: L. Craig Britton, General Manager ADDENDUM TO SPECIAL SERVICES CONTRACT This agreement is an addendum to that Special Services Contract dated December 7, 1994, by and between the MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT, hereinafter known as "District" and ENSHALLAH DEVELOPMENTS, INC., hereinafter known as "Consultants. I. SCOPE OF WORK In consideration of mutual covenants contained herein, Consultants will render the following additional services to the District: PHASE II - SECURING CERTIFICATES OF COMPLIANCE AND LOT LINE ADJUSTMENTS A. Gather required information and prepare the prescribed applications and documentation for the Town of Woodside to obtain Certificates of Compliance and Lot Line Adjustments for the historic lots. B.

Date Open Space R-95-54 MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT Meeting 95-08 April 12, 1995 AGENDA ITEM Transfer of La Point Scenic Easement to the Santa Clara County Open Space Authority GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION Adopt the accompanying resolution approving and authorizing execution of the Scenic Easement Transfer Agreement with the Santa Clara County Open Space Authority. DISCUSSIO At your June 30, 1975 meeting, you adopted Resolution 75-14 accepting the gift of a 20-acre scenic easement from Merrill E. and Dorothy J. La Point (see report R-75-93, dated June 27, 1975). Although located approximately seven miles due south of the southernmost edge of the District's sphere of influence, this easement was accepted as a gift and recorded just prior to the tax sale. This was a creative opportunity to assure that this property would be preserved, while declining to assume fee title and any liability associated with the tax delinquency and/or ongoing property tax obligations. Because of the property's location, it was hoped that a similar agency might one day be formed that would assume the preservation benefits of this easement. Now that the Santa Clara County Open Space Authority has been officially created to preserve desirable open space lands in most of the balance of Santa Clara County, they have been offered a gift transfer of this scenic easement. In fact, it is with great pleasure that our District is able to offer the Open Space Authority its very first parcel of open space for permanent preservation. Board President Siemens and I attended the Authority meeting of March 23, 1995, were introduced, and their Board expressed appreciation as they approved this proposed gift transaction.

The Board of Directors of the Mid peninsula Regional n Section0 e pe g Open Space District does hereby approve that certain Scenic Easement Transfer Agreement between the Santa Clara County Open Space Authority and the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District dated March 15, 1995, a copy of which is attached hereto and by reference made a part hereof, and authorizes the President or appropriate officers to execute the Agreement on behalf of the District. Section Two. The President of the Board or other appropriate officer is authorized to execute the Quitclaim Deed granting the real property interest (Scenic Easement) being conveyed by the District. Section Three. The General Manager of the District shall cause to be given appropriate notice of acceptance. The General Manager is further authorized to execute any and all other documents necessary or appropriate to the closing of the transaction. Section Five. The Board of Directors finds and determines that, pursuant to Section 5540 of the Public Resources Code of the State of California, the no cost transfer of this Scenic Easement furthers the purposes of the District because this property lies outside the District boundary and is more appropriately and adequately owned, managed and operated by the Santa Clara County Open Space Authority. Further, the Board of Directors finds that the granting and releasing of this real property interest is in accordance with the Basic Policy of the District in that this transfer will maximize the opportunity for preservation of open space, will foster cooperation between these government agencies to preserve open space and will most efficiently utilize available government resources in managing open space. Santa Ci..a County Open Space Authority SCENIC EASEMENT TRANSFER AGREEMENT WHEREAS, in 1975 MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT received a gift of a Scenic Easement over the East 1/2 of the Southwest 1/4 of the Northeast 1/4 of Section 27 Township 10 South, Range 2 East, M.D.B. and M., and WHEREAS, even though the real property underlying the easement was outside the geographic boundaries of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District, the District accepted the gift of the Easement because no other agency existed at the time to provide a stewardship program for the Easement, and WHEREAS, SANTA CLARA COUNTY OPEN SPACE AUTHORITY has now been formed by action on the legislative, and the real property underlying the Scenic Easement is within its geographic boundaries, and WHEREAS, MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT would derive great pleasure from transferring said Scenic Easement to SANTA CLARA COUNTY OPEN SPACE AUTHORITY, NOW THEREFORE BE IT AGREED, that said Scenic Easement be transferred from MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT to SANTA CLARA COUNTY OPEN SPACE AUTHORITY by Quitclaim Deed, as attached hereto as Exhibit "A", and incorporated herein by this reference.

MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT R-95-51 Meeting 95-08 April 12, 1995 AGENDA ITEM Agreement with California Department of Forestry and Fir -Protection to Use Radio Frequencies GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATI Authorize the general manager to enter into a contract agreement with the State of California, Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CDF) to use state licensed radio frequencies for mutual aid incidents and training. DISCUSSION For the past several months, staff has been working on securing the use of several new mutual aid fire and law enforcement frequencies. The use of these frequencies will improve the field staff's ability to communicate directly with other emergency service providers. Over one-half of District lands are within the jurisdiction of CDF. It is essential for District field staff members to communicate effectively with CDF when responding to fires and other emergencies on District preserves and adjacent lands. The attached agreement allows for the use of specific CDF radio frequencies for this purpose. This is being offered at no cost to the District and is subject to termination by either party with seven (7) days written notice. In addition to the CDF frequencies, the District recently acquired a FCC license for "fire blue," a Santa Clara County mutual aid fire frequency, and authorization to use "CLEMARS," the California Law Enforcement Mutual Aid System.

With the recent purchase of the property needed to complete the trail connection, the District now plans to build the trail segment later this spring.

The District would also be willing to meet with the group to discuss this matter further if that is your wish. The purpose of this letter is to clarify the rights of the Portola Park Heights Homeowners Association and its members relating to easements over District land. The District hopes that this letter will help avoid future potential problems and ensure a smooth working relationship with our Portola Park Heights neighbors. After one of the January winter storms, one of the association's members was seen cutting trees on District property on the Long Ridge Open Space Preserve. The District investigated the circumstances thoroughly, and determined that the action appeared to be unauthorized and unwarranted. The District has decided, however, to refrain from taking further action in this instance and wants to take the opportunity to emphasize the importance of working together in advance to resolve such matters. This approach lessens the possibility of decisions or acts which could expose your association or its members to the risk of substantial legal liability. The association's members, who are property owners, have an easement through District property, and a right to maintain the easement in an open and safe condition. As an easement owner, however, your rights are specifically limited. Before the association or any easement holder enters and makes changes to District land for the purposes of maintaining and exercising easement rights, the association or easement holder must be able to prove that the work is necessary to protect or i f work, u does i anyway, that those rights. If someone cannot rove the necessity o the o but t exercise P h' � person faces a risk of liability for damages done to District land. Unauthorized cutting of trees is a violation of both state law and District regulations. Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District Land Use Regulation Section 702.1 provides: No person shall damage, injure, collect, or remove any plant or tree or portion thereof, whether living or dead, including but not limited to flowers, mushrooms, bushes, vines, grass, turf, cones and dead wood located on District lands. 330 Distel Circle - Los Altos,CA 94022-1404 - Phone:415-691-1200 - FAX:41 5-691-0485 - E-mail: mrosd@netcom.com Board or Directors:Pete Siemens,!Nary C. Davey, Teena Henshaw,Ginny Babbitt, Nonette Hanko, Betsy Crowder,Wim de Wit Genera!Manager:L.Craig Britton Page 2 The basic value of a tree that is 12 inches in diameter exceeds $2,500. State law provides for either double or triple damages for the wrongful cutting of trees (Code of Civil Procedure Section 733; Civil Code Section 3346.) The cutting or removal of trees with a circumference more than 39" at 4 1/2 feet off the ground also violates San Mateo County ordinances. The District views the cutting, felling and/or removal of trees on District property as a very serious matter. In the management of its lands, the District takes such action with extreme caution and reluctance. Therefore, any concerns you may have regarding trees on District land should be resolved with District staff prior to taking any action without District permission. The District requests that the association and its individual members contact District staff before starting any maintenance work whenever you have concerns about interference with your access rights. Thank you for sharing this letter with the members of the Portola Park Heights Homeowners Association. The District wants to work with its Portola Park Heights neighbors in a cooperative manner. Good communication between us will help preserve g reserve the fights of your association and its members while protecting and preserving the Districts property and the rights of the public.

Additional changes outlined on the site plan include realignment of the Fowkes driveway, fencing, signing and landscaping. I believe all of the concerns raised at the February 9, 1993 neighborhood meeting at the Fowkes home have been addressed. I would like to schedule an evening meeting to explain the components of the plan 'on the ground.' I will hold a meeting at the gate location on Wednesday, April 19 at 6:00 p.m., when I can walk you through the plan and answer any questions. If you cannot attend on April 19 and would like to meet, please give me a call. Perhaps we can schedule another time or discuss your concerns over the telephone. I recently met with a representative of a company specia!*-*,ig in security gate systems. They designed the proposed system which consists of two eight-foot gates, two motor operators to open and close the gates, a digital keypad and a backup battery system for the gate motors. As designed, the gates will open automatically when vehicles are exiting. Also, a safety feature will be installed which keeps the gates open until a vehicle passes beyond a specified point (in either direction) before the gate closes. The digital keypad can hold LIP to 10 different codes, allowing each household a separate code to trigger the gate-opening mechanism. I am hopeful that this provides enough code options. If more than one code per household is needed, a different model keypad will be required at a slightly higher cost. Portable transmitters are available. The cost is dependent upon how many are ordered. Purchase of a transmitter will be the responsibility of each homeowner, however, I can coordinate the purchase. They will cost $25.00 if 1-5 are ordered, $20.00 if 6-10 are ordered, or $17.50 if 11 or more are ordered. I would like to schedule the Fowkes driveway realignment later this month, followed shortly 330 Distel Cirde - Los Altos,CA 94022-1404 * Phone: ,l 15-091-1200 * FAX:415-691-0485 0 E-mail: mrosd0inetcom.com Ho'lld o(1)irc(tots:Pete sienlvt),,NA,Iry C.17avvy, Teelm f 14,11,haw,Ginny Babbitt, Noriette I lanko,Betsy Crowder,Wim tie Wit (Ir t,I I A 1,11 wgi It:I 'raig Britton thereafter with the gate and electrical system installation.

Open Space ----------------------------- MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT For Immediate Release Contact: Malcolm Smith April 7, 1995 Public Affairs Manager (415) 691-1200 Open Space District ' s New Visitors Map Now Available Los Altos, CA -- The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District's long-awaited Visitors JVap is now available to the public. The two-sided document features a tour-color fold-out map depicting all District preserves, noting how to get to each one, a brief description of the preserves and locations of parking, and an "activity grid" showing the various activities, facilities, and special features of each preserve. The map also includes general District information, and its history, policies, activities, programs, facilities, and regulations. Over the next two months, the map will be mailed to each of the approximately 290,000 households in the 16 cities within the District's jurisdiction. In addition, the map is available at the District office, at major trail heads, and from rangers at the open space preserves. Anyone who would like a map mailed to them can request one from the District by calling (415) 691-1200. The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District,extending from the City of San Carlos to the Town of Los Gatos, is a public agency which has preserved over 37,000 acres of diverse open space and manages 23 open space preserves. Funding is provided by a small share of the annual total property tax revenues collected within District boundaries. The District permanently protects wildlife habitat,watershed, and a variety of ecosystems, restores damaged natural resources, and provides trail improvements for passive recreational use by the public. The District's goals are to acquire a continuous greenbelt of protected open space lands for public use and enjoyment, and to preserve open space for future generations to enjoy.

Thank you for your recent letter in which you express your concern regarding budget cuts affecting the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC). You will be pleased to know that I consider the activities of BCDC of great value to the state of California. By opening up over one hundred miles of the San Francisco Bay to recreational activities, the BCDC has helped to stimulate the economy while conserving vast areas of land for public parks, and the Bay itself for sensitive marine habitats and shipping purposes. As a member of the Budget Committee, please be assured that I will do my best to ensure that the BCDC is financially able to continue serving these vital functions. This will include an effort on my part to see that the BCDC retains its institutional autonomy from the California Coastal Commission. At this point, I can not predict the outcome of this proposal, but I have already spoken to the Governor's staff, Secretary of Resources Doug Wheeler, about my opposition. I hope that is helpful Despite budget constraints, we must work to ensure that sensible environmental programs remain intact. Once again, thank you for your letter. Please continue to keep me informed about your opinions on issues facing the legislature.

I never know when it will arrive in my mailbox, but when it does I stop whatever I'm up to, brew a cup a tea, curt up in my favorite chair and read it - the Open Space News - cover to cover. I have a request. Would you please identify the pictures you use of open spaces in your newsletters. I have hiked into the Duveneck Windmill Pasture Area from Rancho San Antonio, from Rhus Ridge Road, and from Hidden Villa. But, I don't recognize where the photo on page 1 was taken from. I suspect Rhus Ridge. Anyway, I think a photo identifier would add another interesting dimension to the newsletter. I love to be able to take my newsletter to work and say, "Look, this is the trail to Duveneck Windmill Pasture Area from Rhus Ridge. The trail is right off Moody Road, and goes straight up for .9 miles. It's a killer during the hottest part of summer. But worth the effort." Anyway, that's my request.

Since its formation in 1965, BCDC has been the agency responsible for protecting the San Francisco Bay and shoreline. It has effectively controlled and slowed development and expansion of landfill that would otherwise have resulted in dramatic and irreparable loss of Bay surface, sensitive wetlands, crucial habitat, and much-needed public access areas. Governor Wilson recently declared his intent to delete funding for BCDC, transferring its responsibilities to the Coastal Commission and/or other agencies, which do not have the resources, experience, or local representation to effectively carry out the long-term tasks of BCDC. The Board's resolution will be sent to Governor Wilson and to State Senator Alfred Alquist, Chair of the Budget and Fiscal Review Committee. The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District, extending from the City of San Carlos to the Town of Los Gatos, is a public agency which has preserved over 37,000 acres of diverse open space and manages 23 open space preserves. Funding is provided by a small share of the annual total property tax revenues collected within District boundaries. The District permanently protects wildlife habitat, watershed, and a variety of ecosystems, restores damaged natural resources, and provides trail improvements for passive recreational use by the public. The District's goals are to acquire a continuous greenbelt of protected open space lands for public use and enjoyment, and to preserve open space for future generations to enjoy. There are approximately 20,000 - 30,000 acres of land still at risk of being lost to development within the District's planning area. The District is divided into seven geographic wards, each represented for a four year term by an elected Board member. The Board holds public meetings on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month at 7:30 p.m., at the District offices. 330 Distel Circle • Los Altos, CA 94022-1404 • Phone:415- 1200 • FAX:415-691-0485 • E-mail: mrosd®netcom.com Board of Directors:Pete Siemens,Mary C.Davev,Teena Henshaw,Ginny Babbitt,Nonette Hanko,Betsy Crowder,Wim de Wit General:�Oanager:L.Craig Britton Open Space 1 1 A. MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT RESOLUTION NO. 95-11 RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE MIDPENINSULA REGIONAL OPEN SPACE DISTRICT SUPPORTING CONTINUED FUNDING FOR THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District fends that the San Francesco Bav Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC)provides a unique and crucial service to the communities around the Bay Area ; and WHEREAS, BCDC has proven itself to be the most effective, efficient, and successful agency in restoring the Bay's natural shoreline and enhancing economic development opportunities for local communities; and WHEREAS, BCDC is an important participant in the development of the San Francisco Bay Trail, a 400-mile trail system that will encircle the Bay, providing for public access, recreation, environmental education, and habitat preservation for the nine Bay Area counties, including a significant portion within District boundaries; and WHEREAS, since its creation in 1965, BCDC has been involved in and largely responsible for reducing the felling of the Bay from an average of 2,300 acres per year to nearly zero;for helping to increase public access to the Bay shoreline from four miles to 110 miles;for helping to increase the surface of the Bay by 800 acres;for assisting in the permanent protection of 99,000 acres of Bay wetlands;for working toward the acquisition of 10,000 acres of wetlands wildlife habitat; and WHEREAS, BCDC has shown great leadership in encouraging sound design for facilities on the Bay, and has been directly responsible for much of the public access around the Bay; and WHEREAS, with the momentous changes taking place around the Bay, and the opportunities for the future of Bay shore preservation and public access, BCDC is even more crucial than ever if the Bay shoreline is to be maintained and enhanced; and WHEREAS, it is the intent of the Governor to consolidate BCDC with the California Coastal Commission, which would dilute and weaken the effectiveness of BCDC to the point where the precious natural resource of the Bay will be threatened. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District strongly encourages the State Legislature and the Governor to maintain BCDC in its existing form with at least its current level of funding, and to abandon plans to consolidate this agency with any other agency. 330 Distel Circle • Los Altos,CA 94022-1.304 • Phone: 415-691-1200 • FAX: 415-691-0.385 • E-mail: mrosd®netcom.com Board of Directors:Pete Siemens, ',Iary C.Davey,Teena Henshaw.Ginny Babbitt.
