AGENDA ITEM 1
AGENDA ITEM
Initial 5-Year Measure AA Project List, Including Projects Identified for Fiscal Year 2015-16
GENERAL MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATIONS
Approve the proposed 5-year Measure AA project list, including projects identified for Fiscal
Year 2015-16 for their inclusion in the District’s 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan, as presented
in this report and/or as modified by the Board at this meeting.
SUMMARY
At the September 10 Study Session, the District Board of Directors (Board) approved
prioritization criteria and screening methodology for use in evaluating Measure AA projects to
identify the highest priority projects to include as part of the initial 5-year project list and
incorporate into the District’s 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) (R-14-114). The October
29 Study Session is a continuation of the District’s prioritization of Measure AA projects, during
which the Board will consider approving the proposed 5-year Measure AA project list, including
the list of projects identified for Fiscal Year (FY)2015-16. Once the Board approves the 5-year
Measure AA projects list, staff will develop cost estimates for projects prioritized within the
initial three year schedule to inform the first bond issuance which is tentatively scheduled for late
spring-early summer 2015.
BACKGROUND
Measure AA calls for the implementation of the Top 25 Vision Plan Portfolios (Portfolios) over
the course of 20 to 30 years. Each Portfolio includes many projects within it. Recognizing that
not all projects can be completed at one time and that Measure AA allows for a 20-30 year
implementation timeframe, on September 10 the Board approved a set of 11 prioritization criteria
(see Attachment 2) to identify (1) the highest priority projects that should be considered for early
implementation, (2) highly desired projects that may be considered pending additional staff
capacity, and (3) lower priority projects that can scheduled further out into the 6+ year horizon.
DISCUSSION
Following the September 10 Study Session, the Measure AA project team, which includes
representatives from multiple departments, applied the Board-approved criteria to evaluate and
prioritize Measure AA projects. This work identified the Essential projects (i.e. those that met
an Essential criterion, see Attachment 2) that should automatically be added to the initial 5-year
Project List. This work also resulted in the ranking of projects based on total score. Each
R-14-130 Page 2
department then evaluated their existing capacity based on current staffing levels to manage
Measure AA projects while taking into account other department obligations, including support
of Measure AA projects led by other departments, implementation of non-Measure AA projects,
core function duties, administrative tasks, and unanticipated assignments or opportunities. Next,
each department estimated the duration and potential start dates for each Essential project to
understand the remaining capacity available to take on additional Measure AA projects. This
remaining capacity was then applied to the highest-scoring Measure AA projects. All projects
that were identified for the first five years were grouped into one list: the 5-Year Measure AA
Project List (see Attachment 3). All other projects were grouped into a second list: the “Parking
Lot” List (see Attachment 7).
The 5-Year Measure AA Project List identifies 51 projects that departments estimate can be
implemented with existing staffing levels, taking into consideration an average vacancy rate of 1
to 2 positions per department. The “Parking Lot” List identifies additional projects that the
Board may choose to add during the first 5 years pending additional staff capacity. A few lower
scoring projects with scores between 5 and 4 points were included as part of the 5-Year Measure
AA Project List because these projects are already underway or could be accomplished relatively
quickly. Deferring projects that are currently underway would result in a loss of project
momentum and added cost. Also, a few higher scoring projects and two (2) Essential projects
did not make it to the 5-Year Measure AA Project List – these projects have not yet been
initiated, require additional staffing to pursue, and though they carry a legal commitment, that
obligation does not need to be met within the first 5 years.
For ease in understanding the comprehensive 5-Year Measure AA Project List and to distinguish
the less discretionary projects from the more discretionary projects, staff further organized these
projects into three main subsets (see Attachments 4 – 6) as follows:
1. Essential projects (31 total) – projects that meet one or more of the Essential criteria and
therefore are deemed of high priority for implementation (non-discretionary)
2. Other Land Conservation projects (6 total) – land purchase projects, not included in
the Essential projects, that are opportunity-driven and are therefore impractical to
schedule, and yet require District flexibility to pursue and carry out when the
opportunities arise (less discretionary)
3. Other Public Access / Restoration projects (14 total) – the remaining Measure AA
projects that are not included in the two subsets above (more discretionary)
Board Consideration
Due to the less discretionary nature of the Essential and Other Land Conservation projects as
described above and in the interest of reserving the Board meeting time to discuss more
discretionary projects, the General Manager recommends that the Board focus its attention on the
Other Public Access / Restoration projects.
Process Recommendation: The General Manager recommends that Essential projects and
Other Land Conservation projects remain as highest priority and approved for automatic
inclusion into the 5-Year Measure AA Project List.
R-14-130 Page 3
Board members may wish to suggest moving specific projects from the “Parking Lot” List for
inclusion into the 5-Year Measure AA Project List. In order to remain within current staff
capacity, for each new project that is added to the 5-Year Measure AA Project List, another
project of roughly equal level of effort should be removed from this list and placed on the
“Parking Lot” list. As additional staff positions are approved by the Board in the future, more
projects from the “Parking Lot” list can be moved onto the 5-Year Measure AA Project List.
Process Recommendation: The General Manager recommends consensus from at least four
Board members to move a project from the “Parking Lot” List to the 5-Year Measure AA
Project List and that projects added to the 5-Year Measure AA Project List are
accommodated by shifting other projects to the “Parking Lot” List.
The final 5-Year Measure AA Project List will help inform future staffing and other resource
needs for the District, which are being evaluated separately through the Financial and
Operational Sustainability Model (FOSM) study. Recommendations for increased and/or
redeployed staff capacity will be developed and incorporated into the upcoming and future
Action Plan and Budget development processes for Board consideration.
Public Input
The October 29 Study Session Agenda will provide opportunities for public input on the Board’s
discussions and deliberation of the 5-year Measure AA Project List.
COMMITTEE REVIEW
The Measure AA Ad Hoc Committee met on October 22 and provided guidance to staff on the
delivery of the Measure AA Project Lists and the process for shifting projects from the “Parking
Lot” List to the 5-Year Measure AA Project List. The Committee agreed with the overall format
of the lists, the recommended process, and the goal of arriving at an approved Measure AA
Project List as the desired outcome for the October 29 Study Session. Given the ambitious
nature of the Measure AA Projects List, the Committee anticipates a robust discussion from the
Board on the individual projects, where the Board would need to focus at a higher level rather
than at the detailed project-level. If Board members have questions about specific project
scopes, they are encouraged to submit them to staff prior to the October 29 Study Session to
streamline Board discussions at the meeting.
FISCAL IMPACT
The decisions under consideration as part of this Agenda Item will substantially influence
District spending beginning in FY2015-16; however, there is no fiscal impact to the FY2014-15
(current) budget related to this item, unless modest and obvious staff changes are suggested and
approved as part of the mid-year budget. Subsequent implementation of Measure AA projects
would be integrated into future Action Plans and Budgets, which will be subject to future Board
approval as part of the year Action Plan and Budget approval process. Measure AA projects
would be funded through the periodic issuance of bonds, as approved by the voters on June 3,
2014.
R-14-130 Page 4
PUBLIC NOTICE
Notice was provided pursuant to the Brown Act and sent to the new Measure AA
Implementation notification list, District docents, volunteers, and the Vision Plan notification
list.
At the direction of the newly-formed Measure AA Ad Hoc Committee, the District also broadly
distributed notification of the Measure AA project prioritization process to the larger public to
further engage public interest as follows:
• Continual updates to the Measure AA website
• Hard copy flyers distributed to Cities and Counties, city halls, libraries, Parks and
Recreation Departments, community centers, and sporting goods stores
• Flyers at Preserve trail heads
• E-blast to Mindmixer participants and partner agencies with new flyer
• Facebook ad (linked to Eventbrite registration page)
• Press release prior to Board Study Session
CEQA COMPLIANCE
No compliance is required as this action is not a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).
NEXT STEPS
Pending approval of the 5-Year Measure AA Project List, staff will develop Measure AA project
cost estimates, which will inform the projected total expenditure amount for the first bond
issuance. Staff will also utilize the approved 5-Year Measure AA Project List to integrate into
the FY15-16 Annual Action Plan and budget preparation. In addition, the 5-Year Measure AA
Project List will also be incorporated into the District’s 5-Year CIP, which will identify the
proposed start years, anticipated project duration, yearly project cost, and total cost. The 5-Year
CIP will be presented to the Action Plan and Budget Committee in January, before full Board
review and consideration in February. Each year, the Board will have an opportunity to review
the rolling 5-year CIP to determine whether any adjustments to the Measure AA Project List are
warranted based on changing conditions (e.g. new opportunity is identified, priorities have
shifted, etc) using the prioritization criteria as a guide.
Implementation of each Measure AA project will require an incremental increase in operations
and maintenance capacity, which is being concurrently assessed by the Operations Impact
Group. Results of this assessment will be fed into the Financial and Operational Sustainability
Model (FOSM) study to further inform the recommendations on future staffing.

Public Comments Received Prior to

Board Consideration of the Initial 5-Year
Measure AA Project List
Subject: FW: Alpine Fire Road
From: Jeff Jordan
Sent: Tuesday, October 21, 2014 11:28 AM
To: Pete Siemens; Yoriko Kishimoto; Jed Cyr; Curt Riffle; Nonette Hanko; Larry Hassett; Cecily Harris
Cc: Steve Abbors
Subject: Alpine Fire Road
Dear board,
I'm writing to implore you to prioritize improvements to the water damaged area of upper Alpine Fire Road.
I am a home owner in Portola Valley and am an avid outdoorsman. I typically am out on the trails multiple times each
week, either riding my mountain bike or hiking with my dog. And almost all of these activities start on Alpine Fire
Road. Virtually every trail between Portola Valley and both Skyline and Page Mill Road bans both bikes and dogs -
with the very notable exception of Alpine Fire Road. It literally is our life line to all of the MPOSD trails in the area -
Monte Bello, Russian Ridge, Skyline Ridge, Saratoga Gap, etc.
There are only two other options and both are very challenging for both biking and hiking: 1) Spring Ridge Trail in
Windy Hill has brutal uphill segments that only the extremely fit can conquer on bikes, and it ends on a segment of
Skyline that is no where near any of the other Open Space preserves (forcing you to ride along the shoulder of Skyline
Blvd, a scary and dangerous undertaking); and 2) the trail off of Alpine Road that is the detour route when upper
Alpine Fire Road is closed (lower Meadow Trail?) is also a brutally steep trail that is treacherous and sometimes
impassable when it gets muddy.
Alpine Road is a historic route that has been neglected for years. In addition to being critical to the pursuit of outdoor
activities in the area, it also feels like a critical route for fire prevention and access. Again, I implore you to prioritize
the improvements that will keep it open for all of these uses.
Thank you.
Jeff Jordan

Subject: Fw: Designation of a Portola` Historic Trail in San Mateo County
Attachments: ABSTRACT - Portola Trail.docx; ABSTRACT - Portola Trail.docx
On Monday, July 21, 2014 3:00 PM, Paul Reimer wrote:
Dear Jane; Welcome to MPROSD. I am contacting you at the suggestion of Noelle Thurlow at POST to
make you aware of my effort in support of historic recognition for Gaspar de Portola` and his exploratory
expedition of 1769. A designated Portola` Trail would lie almost entirely within the boundary of
MPROSD except for the northern-most portion in City of Pacifica and GGNRA's Bay Discovery Site
monument on Sweeney Ridge. I am attaching a one-page abstract of my research report that will be
published by the San Mateo County Historic Association in the fall. Your District's recent purchase of the
Toto Ranch from POST already places you within my list of Right of Way providers for the designated trail at
a key point where the route would cross under Hwy. 1 beneath the Tunitas Creek Bridge
Since I live in Portola Valley not far from your office, phone number 650 854-5044, I'd look forward to the
chance of coming by to talk about my proposal and to show you my maps of a possible route. Since 2019 is
the 250th Anniversary of the Portola` Expedition, I am interested in whether or not it is possible to achieve
such a designation in the next 5 years. I know of similar interest from National Park Service, San Mateo
County Parks and Rec. Department, State Parks and S.M. County Historians. Soon I must find a sponsor
beyond the cooperation that POST has already given me. I'd be interested in your thoughts on this matter.
Either your District or the San Mateo County Parks Dept. would represent ideal Sponsors.
For your info, I am a retired Civil Engineer and have been a long-time member of POST's Advisory Council
and Stewardship Committee.
ABSTRACT IS IT TIME FOR A PORTOLA` HISTORIC TRAIL DESIGNATION IN SAN MATEO COUNTY ? Gaspar de Portola`, a Catalonian, came to New Spain following his appointment as Governor of Baja California in 1767. Upon his arrival, he was given the sensitive task of replacing the Jesuit Priests with Franciscans at 17 established missions in Baja California, the Jesuit Order of the Catholic Church having fallen out of favor with King Carlos III of Spain.(1759-1788). At this same time King Carlos, with rising concern over Russian and English presence along the Pacific Coast, directed his emissaries in New Spain to perfect the Spanish claim to Alta California through colonization of San Diego, Monterey and, ultimately, San Francisco. Portola`, now renowned for his successful re-priesting, volunteered to lead the 1769 expedition as organized by the Visitor General in New Spain, Jose de Galvez. After an initial march from the Presidio in Loreto to San Diego Bay, Portola` reconstituted the expedition to leave a permanent colony at San Diego and rode north with his servant, 62 other Spaniards, Mexicans and Christianized Indians along with 100 horses and mules. 78 days later the expedition was at the edge of Monterey Bay. Neither the protected harbor nor the expected supply ship was in sight and the expedition turned north still in search of its objective. That disheartening turn resulted in Portola`s march across the Santa Cruz Coastal Plain and into what is now San Mateo County at Ano Nuevo. In fact, after inhabiting six different campsites along the San Mateo Coast during October/early November 1769 and withstanding dysentery, scurvy and hunger, Portola` and his expedition saw San Francisco Bay from what is now called Sweeney Ridge, the first Europeans to do so. Diaries from Portola` and Expedition Members Fray Crespi and Ensign Costanzo reported the Bay as big enough to harbor “all the Navies of Europe”. Finally reaching consensus among his captains that they were substantially north of Monterey Bay and that the Indian tale of a waiting supply ship was fabrication, Portola` led his troop back to San Diego after an arduous 6 months trek with discipline intact and without loss of a man except for five Indians who deserted to stay in fertile Alta California. The Expedition’s 250th Anniversary will occur in 2019. With Portola`s return in January of 1770, a report was dispatched to the Viceroy in Mexico City and, subsequently, to King Carlos in which the discovery of San Francisco Bay, its imposing size and the extension of the colonial potential for Alta California ( by some 300 miles) was noted . Despite two centuries of neglect after Cabrillo sailed the Pacific Coast, the decade beginning with Portola`s trek in 1769 saw a strong effort to perfect the Spanish claim to Alta California. That effort included Portola`s return to establish Church and Presidio in Monterey in the summer of 1770 as well as the De Anza Expedition which arrived on the San Francisco Peninsula in 1776 to begin Spanish Colonization of the Bay Area. The paper from which this abstract comes is to be published by the San Mateo County Historical Association and will include the basis for identifying the six Portola` Campsites as well as factors leading to a “Best Guess” trail location between. Based upon research to date, it appears possible to “best guess” Portola`s Historic Route in coast-side San Mateo County and to find 100% public/preservation ownership for the Historic Right of Way designation in proximity thereto.

Subject: Dirt Alpine
Dear MidPen Board Members:
I am one of the many users of the upper portion of Alpine Rd. (“dirt Alpine”). My wife and I
ride up and down the road an average of 2-3 times a month on our mountain bikes. I am
writing to add my voice to those other trail users who are requesting that repair of dirt Alpine
be made a priority of the Board.
We have watched the roadbed crumbling for years, as a result of unmaintained culverts –
which I understand was wholly or partially to blame for the major washout that required the
temporary repairs that were carried out. There is a second blocked culvert, of which you are
likely aware, several hundred yards down the road from the location of the major wash-
out/temporarily repaired culvert, in the section that was blocked off when the major washout
occurred. The roadbed where this second blocked culvert is located has been crumbling
away, bit by bit, literally for decades and the road is now down to about 4 feet in width in
that location (which is marked with cones). The point being that dirt Alpine has received
virtually no maintenance for years, so making it a “priority” would not so much be an
emergency measure, but would be more in the nature of making up for long term neglect.
The detour route set up around the section where these two culverts are located does not
offer a realistic solution to the maintenance problem. The section into which users are
rerouted when the detour is in place is so steep and exposed that it is basically unusable for
mountain bikers and is even difficult to walk up, particularly after it has rained.
In short, if dirt Alpine is not repaired on a priority basis (particularly in the location of the two
culverts), and weather conditions cause another detour, it is the equivalent of closing the
road altogether. Other than Stevens Canyon to the south and Windy Hill to the north (which
is too steep for most bike riders) there are no other (legal) biking routes to the Skyline that
are closed to motor vehicle traffic. I hope that you will give priority to repairing this popular
recreational route.
Thank you,
Mitchell S. Griffin

Subject: Re: Measure AA meeting comments
I will comment on a couple categories of what I consider priority actions (and give examples of some Ridge
Trail projects that fit).
• I think there is high value in completing projects quickly - promoting quick accomplishments should raise
community awareness and support of the District's mission & goals. Examples (these are taken from your
2014/15 plan):
• Mt Um trails & staging (so many priorities intersect on the mountain)
• Purisima to the Sea Trail - the first Coastside project since annexation • El Corte de Madera trails
phases 3 & 4 - now that the staging area is open, and since these are already underway, you will generate
valuable PR by completing soon.
• I totally concur with prioritizing ecological restoration as represented by the need to upgrade existing ranch,
forestry and other service roads - these can be among the most destructive developments on landscapes,
and need close attention throughout their development stages (and if the old roads were not well-designed
or maintained the issue is even more critical). La Honda Creek's road network is a good example of
appropriate high priority ranking.
However, even when the roads are upgraded the preserve cannot open til there is a developed trailhead.
Similar to Mt Um, La Honda Creek is an example of potentially multiple priorities reinforcing each other, and
increasing positive publicity for the District:
• the genuine ecological benefits of the roadwork could lead directly to significant new public access to a
high visibility property that is currently practically unavailable.
• if you add development of the planned Red Barn staging area at the same time as the road upgrades
it ties the restoration work and public access together in your messaging, and the public would be
delighted to see that project underway soon.

Subject: Supporting fixing dirt Alpine Rd/trail
Hello Members of the MidPen Board -
I would like to voice my support for prioritizing the permanent repair of the dirt section of Alpine Road, with its recent slide area. This is a
wonderful and high-use trail, due to the access it provides to Skyline open space areas such as Black Mountain. It gets use from both bikes and
hikers/runners. The alternative route is quite steep and extremely slippery in wet winters (which we will hopefully have again!), as well as
exposed. Dirt Alpine, on the other hand, has a gentle slope and pleasant shade most of the way. The road's historic nature is an additional
bonus.
Please put a high priority on this pleasant, popular, car-free access to Skyline open space.
Thank you for your time and consideration,
Lara Sox-Harris

Subject: The cyclist's perspective on project prioritization
To the Directors of the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District:
As we understand the plan for your meeting on the 29th you are to prioritize the various projects that comprise the first 25 portfolios to be
funded by bond sales made possible by Measure AA.
We know this is a complicated process and there are many competing constituencies vying for their own particular interests. That said, we
are hoping that you can remember your campaign pledges related to AA. "Improved access" was generally the most prominently
mentioned goal, with "new hiking and biking trails" usually the number one sub-goal. See attachment.
Cyclists comprise a very large percentage of open space users. Without delving into the specifics of which projects are opened where, you
can please many your "customers" if you work to create or improve:
Regional trail connections - Routes "up to the ridge line" to the less utilized parks and open spaces, routes north and south along the
ridge line… complete the bay area ridge trail.
Multi-use trails - We're happy to share with other users and are receptive to new access rules on newly opened routes e.g. uphill only
routes, or bikes ok on even number days etc.
Access to single track - In the past, from our perspective, it has often seemed as if hikers and equestrians "get all the good routes" and
cyclists get scraps. We get the fire roads that climb too steeply to be of much use. In the future we hope for improved access to
gently climbing single track trails as well.
We hope you can keep these thoughts in mind as you consider the alternatives. We're all very excited that this measure has passed and is
moving on to implementation. Thank you for taking this on.

Subject: Upper Alpine Rd.
Dear Board of Directors for Mid Pen Open Space,
As a longtime resident of Portola Valley and an avid hiker, biker and runner, I am concerned about the state of the
upper alpine road which has been in disrepair for years. Ugly orange plastic fencing has attempted to warn people
about the deteriorating trail - which is an eyesore and in winter, if this is closed, detours to get around this area are
perilous, at best.
Is there any reason this pass through - which is a vital connector to all the upper trails and areas over Page Mill - has
not been fixed? Every time I am up there, people are trying to figure out if they can get through, why it is closed off -
in other words, this is a very frequented route that people use and enjoy and it seems such a shame that it has been
neglected for repair. I would also add that if the road slips further, this might be more difficult to fix as well as
damaging to the surrounding trees and hillside.
I typically turn around at this point as it is more trouble and hassle to try to ride this route than it is worth - and what a
shame to not use what is practically in our backyard because it has gone from natural open space trail to riding or
hiking hazard.
I know there are many things that compete for Open Space dollars but this one would be money well spent,
appreciated and well used, as a result!!!
Thank you,

Dear Mid-Peninsula Board: As a 20 year resident of Portola Valley and Woodside, I'd like to convey the value of Upper Alpine Road to
my family over the years. It serves a unique role as an important hiking and cycling connector to the
various open spaces in the area and as you know, is one of the very few non-paved routes from the valley
floor to the ridge top in the area. Over the years it's become our absolute favorite connecting hiking and
cycling route. With it's sense of history, exceptionally natural feel and generally moderate slope, I believe it's deserving ofpriority for prudent spending to maintain and possibly enhance the road and trail system. Most notable forattention is a long-term solution to the temporary fix made to the road in the past year or so and makingsure that the existing bypass off the historic road is ecologically sustainable.
Thank you all for your outstanding efforts to make our area such a great place to live, keep up the good
work.

Re: Measure AA List
To Whom It May Concern:
On Wednesday, October 29, 2014, the board of directors of the District will
discuss and approve the list of Measure AA projects, as this project list has been
prioritized by District staff for the board's review and approval using the criteria
adopted by the board on September 10, 2014. This approved list will represent
the District's first 5-year Measure AA project implementation schedule -as well
as be a great demonstration of the District's commitment to deliver on the vision
approved by the voters in June.
In advance of the October 29th board meeting, I write to provide comments
on behalf of the Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST) regarding projects we
believe score strongly under the District's prioritization and weighting
methodology, and therefore should be included in the District's first 5-year
Measure AA project implementation schedule.
We have identified six project areas that we believe in each case merit
being included as high priority project areas in the "Top 25" Vision Elements.
The remainder of this letter discusses how we believe these six projects fit well
within many of the board-approved prioritization criteria. (Note: when referring
below to individual prioritization criteria we use the descriptions of these criteria
as set forth in the publicl� posted draft minutes of the District board study
session on September lOt .)
1. Bear Creek Public Recreation and
Element Opening the 1,065-acre Bear Creek Redwoods to
the public has been a top goal of POST's ever since we stepped in to purchase 805
acres of this property in 1999, in conjunction with the District's acquisition of the
remainder of the property. Since the Bear Creek Redwoods property extends
from Lexington Reservoir (and the 500-acre county park located there) to Skyline
Boulevard, and is only a short drive from San Jose, it can serve as a gateway to
the network of Santa Cruz Mountains parks and preserves, as well as provide a
key connection in a trail system that can link the City of San Jose to the Pacific
more than 50 miles away. The Bear Creek Redwoods portfolio of projects comply
with most of the board-approved prioritization criteria, including specifically:

• Inclusion provides benefit to two or more user groups (hikers, bicycles,
horses, dogs, families, all-access) and/ or underserved populations or
greater access for limited mobility.
• The action taken would result in a significant, beneficial impact to public
use and recreation.
• The action taken would result in a significant, beneficial impact to natural
resource values.
• Implementation action enhances or leverages opportunities for
partnerships.
2. Purisima Creek Purisima-to-Sea Watershed Protection
and Conservation Element Completing this project will represent
the culmination of decades of work by the District and POST to secure and permanently
protect a chain of properties along Lobitos Ridge, connecting Purisima Creek Redwoods
OSP with a now existing segment of the California Coastal Trail. District staff are
already working on taking title to the upland portion of the Purisima Farms property,
to complement POST's construction and opening of the Cowell-Purisima Trail and
staging area. We believe that this portfolio of projects complies with most of the board
approved prioritization criteria, including specifically:
• The action is in the middle of implementation and/ or the action is an
essential part of a multi-phase project that is currently underway.
• High level of confidence regarding the ease and flexibility of
implementation.
• Inclusion allows for a wide geographic distribution of benefits and new
facilities.
• Inclusion provides benefit to two or more user groups (hikers, bicycles,

• The action taken would result in a significant, beneficial impact to public
use and recreation.
• Implementation action enhances or leverages opportunities for
partnershi ps.
3. Russian Public and Wildlife
Element One of the prime project opportunities within this project portfolio is at
Mindego Hill, where the District's construction work on the Ancient Oak trail
connections and staging area is almost complete. These new amenities will provide the
public with an outstanding example of the District's ability to combine public access
with the reintroduction of ecologically sustainable conservation grazing. We believe
Peninsula Open Space Trust
Measure AA Project Priority List

that this portfolio of projects complies with nearly all of the board-approved
prioritization criteria, including specifically:
• The action is in the middle of implementation and/ or the action is an
essential part of a multi-phase project that is currently underway.
• High level of confidence regarding the ease and flexibility of
implementation.
• Inclusion allows for a wide geographic distribution of benefits and new

4. La Honda Driscoll Ranch Public Wildlife
Protection and Conservation Element The District has completed
its master plan for 3,68I-acre Driscoll Ranch (acquired from POST in 2006) and the other
lands within the La Honda Open Space Preserve. POST is coordinating with District
staff on potential transfer of a more recently acquired property (the 3I8-acre Driscoll
Orchards property) to the District, to improve the public access opportunities at La
Honda Creek OSP and protect the vital San Gregorio Creek corridor. As part of this
coordination, the District is benefiting from POST's grant funds (from the Resources
Legacy Foundation) to achieve some of the District's stewardship goals. The completion
of this portfolio of projects will demonstrate a major success for the District in bringing
the implementation of a complex master planning process to a successful conclusion.
We believe that this portfolio of projects complies with nearly all of the board-approved
prioritization criteria, including specifically:
• The action is in the middle of implementation and/ or the action is an
essential part of a multi-phase project that is currently underway.
• High level of confidence regarding the ease and flexibility of

• The action taken would result in a significant, beneficial impact to natural

5. Redwoods Protection and Salmon Conservation
Element # The Santa Cruz Mountains area represent a unique ecologic resource as
well as an outstanding opportunity for public access and recreation a short distance
from major urban centers. We are encouraged that the District is placing a significant
focus on open space and habitat preservation in this area, which remains under
significant threat from development fragmentation and loss of critical wildlife
corridors.
POST's work in this area has resulted in three completed acquisition projects that
come within this Vision Element and are ready now to. benefit from Measure AA funds.
These three projects include the 318-acre Driscoll Orchards property described above
(in item 4\ as well as the 353-acre Alpine Ranch property, which was acquired by POST
in December 2012 for $5 million, and borders a County Park on two sides. Permanent
protection of the Alpine Ranch property will benefit the Pescadero-Butano watersheds
(with their steelhead and coho salmon runs) while also providing many public
recreational opportunities, both on the property itself and as part of a possible future
connection between Russian Ridge OSP and Pescadero Creek County Park. POST
greatly appreciates that the District will consider acquiring a conservation easement
over Alpine Ranch to facilitate its permanent protection. The third completed project
that is relevant to this Vision Element is the 117-acre Hendrys Creek property, which is
surrounded on two sides by the Sierra Azul OSP and contains perennial Hendry's
Creek. POST and District staff are working on a potential transfer of fee title to this
property to the District by early 2015.
We believe that each of these three projects, as well as future acquisition
opportunities within this Vision Element, complies with all eight of the board-approved
prioritization criteria.
6. South Wildlife and Trail
Element We understand that one of the goals of this work will be to
establish mechanisms for safe passage of mountain lions across the Highway 17
corridor. We are very interested in working with the District to identify possible
wildlife corridor projects and wildlife passage improvements in that area. We believe
that this portfolio of projects complies with most of the board-approved prioritization
criteria, including specifically:
• Inclusion allows for a wide geographic distribution of benefits and new
facilities.
• Inclusion provides benefit to two or more user groups (hikers, bicycles,
horses, dogs, families, all-access) and/ or underserved populations or
greater access for limiteq mobility.

• The action taken would result in a significant, beneficial impact to public
use and recreation.
• The action taken would result in a significant, beneficial impact to natural

• Implementation action enhances or leverages opportunities for
partnerships.
Based on the foregoing review of the approved prioritization criteria, POST
continues to believe the six project areas described above to be high priority project
areas that merit inclusion in the first 5-year Measure AA implementation plan.
We appreciate the complexity of the task before staff and the District's board, in
evaluating, prioritizing, reviewing and approving projects amongst so many worthy
options that resulted from the thoughtful Vision Plan effort. POST remains excited to
support the District's efforts to prioritize projects, and leverage the Measure AA
funding with other resources.

Subject: Re: Designation of a Portola` Historic Trail in San Mateo County
Dear Jane; There was a lot going on at my house when you called this morning and, consequently, our
conversation was much too disjointed and long. Clearly, it is now up to the S.M. County Parks and Rec. Dept
and I know you will be hearing further from Marlene and Sam as they evaluate the Portola` Trail for
presentation to the Parks Commission and to the Board of Supervisors. Whether or not, in my zeal, I have
the Cart before the Horse in encouraging the MidPen District's definition of a Portola` Trail project within its
Priority Projects List remains to be seen. What I am deathly afraid of is that your District makes up a priority
list in which the proposed Portola` Trail is conspicuous by its absence.
As we discussed, it is ownership of the Toto Ranch that brings your District into play. The Portola` Trail route that makes the most
sense, as I see it, would utilize the farm road that provides access to Toto Ranch from Hwy. 1 and then runs to the north along the
west end of the Ranch property. I would like your District to confirm such a route or find a better one that is compatible with the
grazing lease and also leads to the Tunitas Creek Bridge under which the combined Coastal-Portola` Trail would switch from the
west side of Hwy. 1 to the east side.
There is one intervening property for which the trail alignment fall-back is to return to the Hwy 1 Right of Way ( still on the east side
) until the Stage Road intersection is gained. The Stage Road alignment then becomes the right of way for the combined Trails to
the intersection with Hwy. 84. At that point, the Coastal Trail turns to the west toward San Gregorio State Beach Parking Area. If
your Districts interest could then be focused on the remaining part of Stage Road to and thru the Town of Pescadero, my dreams
will have been fulfilled since Stage Road takes the right of way to Cloverdale Ranch and south to the Ano Nuevo State Reserve.
The hooks within the South San Mateo County Coast Priority Action Locations that accompanied Measure AA on which I hope to
hang your Districts consideration of a Toto Ranch to Pescadero Pedestrian Improvement Project are as follows:
Under Natural, Cultural and Scenic Landscapes - Sense of Place - o Maintain a sense of place by protecting and increasing
access to locally significant, iconic natural or cultural features. o Preserve the scenic backdrop and
designated scenic corridors, emphasizing the view from major roadways and parklands. o Cultivate partnerships that
preserve and/or enhance cultural resources. o Increase
interpretation of cultural resources. o Provide new public access or
improve access with trails and staging area improvements.
o Provide regional, long distance trails that connect open space to communities.
(58) Cloverdale Ranch - Provide trail connections to nearby State parks.
(75) Regional - Encourage, facilitate and partner to complete and manage the California Coastal Trail on the San Mateo Coast.
Jane,Is this enough to win an argument for a joint Coastal/ Portola` Trail Project in the Mid Pen. District's priority
list

a key point where the route would cross under Hwy. 1 beneath the Tunitas Creek Bridge
Since I live in Portola Valley not far from your office, phone number 650 854-5044, I'd look forward to the
chance of coming by to talk about my proposal and to show you my maps of a possible route. Since 2019 is
the 250th Anniversary of the Portola` Expedition, I am interested in whether or not it is possible to achieve
such a designation in the next 5 years. I know of similar interest from National Park Service, San Mateo
County Parks and Rec. Department, State Parks and S.M. County Historians. Soon I must find a sponsor
beyond the cooperation that POST has already given me. I'd be interested in your thoughts on this matter.
Either your District or the San Mateo County Parks Dept. would represent ideal Sponsors.
For your info, I am a retired Civil Engineer and have been a long-time member of POST's Advisory Council
and Stewardship Committee.

Dear Board
I am happy AA was funded and am interested in seeing projects to allow more trail access - new
trails as well as repairs - proceed more rapidly.
I am an equestrian user as well as hiker/jogger. I have used the Alpine Road/trail for years and was
glad to see it reopened last year but hope it will be fully repaired and not undergo further
degradation with the winter season approaching.
This route is used by many hikers, bikers and equestrians. It should be a priority to remain open
and available. Please put it's repair as a priority.
Next, I would like to suggest considering a new route that would connect Monte Bello - where the
Alpine road connects to Pagemill Road - over to Skyline Ridge OSP. Upper Pagemill is curvy which
limits visibility making it more dangerous to use for bikers/hikers and impossible to use for
equestrians. It would be fantastic to have a connection from this area over to the Skyline/Russian
Ridge without having to go via the alternate route (Stevens Creek and up by the former Sherill
Winery to the Horsehoe Lake).
I have lived here since 1988 and have observed the huge increase in usage over the years - that of
course is good for so many to enjoy these incredible hills but also leads to congestion. More trails
might help ease congestion...
Thanks for your consideration.

Please direct to board
Several weeks ago I attended an Open Space meeting held open to the
public.
I kept hearing we need to address low hanging fruit projects that we can turn around right away.The comments made by the board also stated the need to open more trails to multi-use.
I give you three trails that only require sign changes.
Windy Hill Open Space
Lost Trail
Runs parallel to Sky line Blvd. Lost Trail is also part of the Ridge Trail
system.
The trail is wide with plenty of visibly. There are no dangerous features
or choke pointsPlease open this trail to include cycling. Cost to Open Space - a sign change.
Razor Back Ridge TrailThis is another trail that gets little to no use. There is essentially no Parking at the base of
Alpine Rd trail or Skyline Blvd Trail heads. The few times I have hiked
this trail I never saw
another person on the trail. This trail is ideal for Mt Bikes as they can
ride up Alpine or acrossSkyline to get access to this trail. The switch backs are all doable via Mt Bikes. This would alsocreate a safer access to Skyline from Alpine Rd. Again there is little to do on this trail other thanchanging the sign. Please consider this low usage trail for Bike access.http://openspace.org/preserves/maps/pr_windy_hill.pdf
San Born County Park / Saratoga Gap Open Space / Ridge Trail
San Born / Skyline TrailI road this trail with the Ridge Trail organization several years ago on a fund raiser day.This week I hiked the trail section from Sunnyvale Mountain Parking area down to Saratoga Gap.I am really surprised at what a jewel this trail system is. It is virtually
unused. The wide trail
was covered with a thick bead of leaves, pine needles and fallen brush.
Every step I took
left an imprint. It was obvious this is a virtually abandoned trail system.
True, work is going on
on the Sanborn/San Andreas Tail for next year. But the existing upper tail system that runsparallel to Skyline is virtually abandoned. The only signs of usage are around Castle Rock.The trail itself is wide with gradual slopes making hiking and biking very easy. Please considerOpening this section of trail from Sunnyvale Mountain Parking area to
Saratoga Gap open to
Bikes. No one else is using it, might as well. again another trail that
would only require a sign
change. http://sf.epochtimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/SanbornGuideMapFinal.pdf

Please prioritize and accelerate Dirt Alpine Road trail
improvements under Measure AA to address San Mateo
County trail safety concerns and keep the trail open to the
public.
Dirt Alpine Road is one of the few bike-accessible car-free
trails to Skyline. It has been neglected for years and requires
improvements.
Thank you for your public service.

Subject: Measure AA meeting comments
Hi Ana -
I will be in a Ridge Trail board meeting on Wednesday, so am sending brief comments
regarding Ridge Trail priorities here. I attached pages from your from your Implementation
Options document and highlighted the projects discussed below. Please share with your
board.
I am only commenting on projects listed in the Implementation Options document. I
highlighted all that are Ridge Trail-related.
• I agree with the Priority 1 ranking of Purisima to the Sea Trail and the various Mt Um
projects.
• Please consider moving El Corte de Madera trails phases 3 & 4 to higher priority (it seems
to me that since these are already partially completed you will get valuable PR from getting
these done sooner)
• Consider adding the Red Barn staging area plan to La Honda Creek ranch road upgrades
(already Priority 1), since the preserve cannot open til the staging area is done
Thanks Ana -

MROSD Staff and Board,
Thank you for public access to the MROSD preserves.
Here are my current prioritization concerns with the implementation of Measure AA funds and
plans.
Increase trail mileage first. A balance between the desires of private individuals and what you, the
MROSD representing community interests, deem worthy for immediate action, will include
increased trail access. This is because this is one area, identified in the planning process, in which
all identified stake holders expressed high value. Immediate increased access and more trail will
demonstrate that the public concerns are being fulfilled.
I will not list the trails and preserves Here. Others have written on the topic. Furthermore, the
detailed planning process has already compiled them.
One more suggestion, is that your success will be enhanced by highlighting improvements closer
to urban. areas, which have a higher profile than more remote preserves.
All the best. Thanks for all the good things you do.
Sincerely,
Paul Nam

Dear Open Space District Biard and staff,
As an East Palo Alto citizen, I'm writing to express my hope for funding priority for projects allowing for
access to open space and parkland for East Palo Alto residents, specifically, anything to do with Cooley
Landing, Ravenswood Preserve, and Bay trail access there.
Thank you!
