3. GENERAL MANAGER DIVISION

This item was pulled and move to a later board meeting for further discussion.

a. Adoption of Amendments to the Board Operating Guidelines to Clarify the Types of Meetings for Which Board Members May Receive Compensation

District Counsel Carol Victor made a brief presentation on this item. She explained it has been 15 years since there were any changes to the definition of compensable meetings, and 30 years in changing compensation. The planned revised policy is modeled after Alameda County Water District. Victor went through both the clean and redlined proposed amendments that were attached to the staff memo. The amendments consisted of 10 different items either with changes or with changes noted. There was robust discussion amongst the Board on this item. Victor said that the reason that this is before the Board is because it is a requirement to apply to new state law. Many special districts that have taken advantage of compensation that the District has never taken advantage of, and the legislature enacted this law to curb those excesses. President Corbett stated that she is comfortable coming back with amendments and ideas proposed today. Corbett commented that Board members have an opportunity to decide how many meetings they want to go to in a month. Corbett stated that in the future there is an opportunity to attract new board members and it doesn’t hurt that board members get compensated in this economy. The legislature passed this to curb abuses. Victor will return to a Board meeting with edits to ensure this is Park District business and policy related meetings are compensable. Victor explained with some editing this goal can be achieved. 12 Unapproved Minutes Board Meeting of March 3, 2020 This item was moved to another Board meeting. Director Waespi would like to address the ability to raise Board pay 5% every year rather by passing a resolution that it happens every year. The Board would have the opportunity to take 5% increase however would only take the same amount that the employees receive even if employees receive less than 5.

Supplemental Agenda b. East Bay Regional Park District’s Contingency Planning for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Acting General Manager Victor stated that due to this rapidly developing public health emergency, it was anticipated the Board might want to have a conversation about COVID-19. President Corbett commented she appreciated staffs’ recommendation the Board might need to have a discussion.

DGM Ana Alvarez and Kip Walsh, Chief Human Resources Officer gave a presentation on COVID -19. DGM Alvarez stated she proactively responded to the health advisory initiated by CDC, monitored local health agencies, and sent out emails to the staff. Staff has established a team made up of multidisciplinary skill sets. Payroll and Human Resources are the most essential functions.

Corbett asked if the Alameda County Health District has reached out to groups. DGM Alvarez said the District has not heard from Alameda County Health District, but staff are monitoring the public information being provided.

Rosario asked if employees can work from home. DGM Alvarez replied the District is trying to be flexible. Rosario asked about the sick leave bank. Wieskamp asked if there are simple things that can be done to minimize getting Covid-19. Wash hands, use sanitizer, paper towels. Corbett commented that she appreciates that staff are considering telecommuting and teleconference practices and are posting information flyers in the parks encouraging hand washing and the use of hand sanitizer. Whatever the public health institution does, triggers the District actions.

Waespi added his thanks and commented that this DC trip was the best of the six he’s attended, and he appreciated the follow-up summary. Corbett asked if there will be continued conversations with the VA, the city of Alameda and the District. Is there a place for coordination with planning the park and landscape planning with the VA’s work and the work the District is doing? Pfuehler answered he will follow up.

c. Approve Special Use Agreement – City of Fremont’s Operation of Patterson House: Ardenwood Historic Farm (Patterson/O’Connor)

RECOMMENDATION

The General Manager and the Board Operations Committee, by unanimous vote at its October 17, 2019 meeting, recommend that the Board of Directors approve the Special Use Agreement with the City of Fremont for the operation of the Patterson House at Ardenwood Historic Farm for a five-year term ending December 31, 2024.

REVENUE/COST

The proposed contract would compensate the City of Fremont a total of $436,655 over the five-year term for providing house tours to the general public and scheduled groups for nine months of the year, from April through December, at $83,907 for 2020, $85,585 for 2021, $87,297 for 2022, $89,043 for 2023, and $90,823 for 2024. The cost of the contract is included in the existing District budget.

BACKGROUND

The Park District and the City of Fremont (City) entered into a Management Agreement in 1982 for the operation of Ardenwood Historic Farm. The original Management Agreement made provisions for the City to restore, operate, and interpret the Patterson House which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Since 2010, a separate shorter-term agreement has afforded the Park District greater flexibility in how the Patterson House is incorporated into the overall operation of Ardenwood, while continuing to support the Ardenwood Land Use Plan, Business Plan, and the Mission, Vision, and Goals of the Park District.

This Special Use Agreement defined both Park District and City responsibilities regarding the Patterson House operation for a five-year interval. Tours of the Patterson House include the history of the 16-room Queen Anne Victorian farmhouse, which operates as a museum of local history and Victorian life. Tours are led by docents dressed in 19th century clothing, take about 45 minutes and are on a drop-in basis (no registrations taken.)

16 The Special Use Agreement between the Park District and City compensates the City for providing house tours, as well as the costs to cover maintenance, operation, and interpretive services of the Patterson House, ongoing building maintenance costs, Patterson House management, and part-time interpretive staff. Staffing costs account for the majority of expenses incurred in operating the Patterson house.

ALTERNATIVES

None are recommended.

WHEREAS, the City of Fremont has operated the Patterson House with a Special Use Agreement since 2010 which serves the Park District’s interest and provides flexibility in how the Patterson House is incorporated into the overall operation of Ardenwood; and

WHEREAS, the Board Operations Committee at its October 17, 2019 meeting reviewed and unanimously recommended approval by the full Board of renewing this agreement.

d. Authorization to Execute a Contract for Youth Employment Services with California Conservation Corps for 2020: District-wide (O’Connor)

RECOMMENDATION

The General Manager recommends that the Board of Directors authorize executing a contract with California Conservation Corps (CCC) for the purposes of vegetation management and fuels reduction throughout the Park District.

REVENUE/COST

Funding for the proposed contract in the amount of $195,860 is included in the 2020 Adopted Operating Budget in various units within the Operations Department. The proposed contract includes the cost of the CCC crew members, crew leader, transportation, and other program expenses. The job tasks and locations have been determined by staff based on anticipated needs throughout the parks.

SOURCE OF FUNDS Parkland Unit (101-5120-000-6191) $ 30,000 Recreation Unit (101-5130-000-6191) 20,000 Lakes Unit (101-5140-000-6191) 30,000 Shoreline Unit (101-5150-000-6191) 20,000 Interpretive Parklands Unit (101-5160-000-6191) 40,000 Delta Unit (101-5170-000-6191) 60,000 AVAILABLE BALANCE $ 200,000 USE OF FUNDS Contract with California Conservation Corps $ 195,860 BALANCE REMAINING $ 4,140

BACKGROUND

The California Conservation Corps (CCC) is a Department within the California Natural Resources Agency, established in 1976. The program provides young men and women a year of paid service working on environmental projects and responses to natural and man-made disasters. On-the-job experience provides skills that may lead to future careers. Scholarship opportunities are available to crew members as well.

In recent years, the California climate has changed across the region and these climatological shifts have resulted in earlier and longer fire seasons. Proper vegetation management is crucial for fire mitigation. It is therefore essential that the Park District meet local fire jurisdiction abatement deadlines for vegetation removal. Limited resources, increasing fire weather restrictions on maintenance activities, and the elimination of Glyphosate in developed areas impact staff’s ability to meet regulatory demands. The contract with CCC crew will provide additional assistance to meet the deadlines and ongoing needs pertaining to vegetation removal in developed park and trail areas. The 2020 Adopted Budget designated monies for the purpose of hiring crews to support the ongoing effort to reduce the fuel loads and weeds due to the loss of Glyphosate in the developed areas.

ALTERNATIVES

None are recommended.

g. Resolution Objecting to the Sale at Public Auction of 13.66 acres of Tax- Defaulted Real Property by the Alameda County Tax Collector’s Office, and Authorization to Submit a Purchase Application to Alameda County for the Acquisition of the Property and to Transfer and Appropriate Funds Necessary to Complete the Purchase: Leona Canyon Open Space Regional Preserve (Reeves/Kelchner)

RECOMMENDATION

The General Manager recommends that the Board of Directors adopt a Resolution objecting to the sale by public auction of 13.66 acres of tax delinquent property by the Alameda County Tax Collector's Office, authorize staff to submit a purchase application to Alameda County for the purchase of the property and to accept the property on behalf of the Park District, and transfer and appropriate the funds necessary to complete the purchase of the property as an addition to Leona Canyon Open Space Regional Preserve.

REVENUE/COST

The subject property may be purchased through the Alameda County Tax Collector’s Office for $31,017 pursuant to State Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 3695 and 3695.4 (State R&T Code). Provided the purchase is approved by the State Controller’s Office and the property owners do not redeem the back taxes owed prior to the sale date set by the tax collector, the Park District’s purchase of the property can go forward, and staff will return to the Board following completion of the purchase to request the transfer and appropriation of additional funding required to close out this acquisition project and provide for any needed site safety and security measures.

Today’s Board action will authorize the transfer and appropriation of Measure WW acquisition funds from the Leona Canyon Allocation Area to project account Alameda County-Mbanugo/ Leona Canyon (CIP 218400WP38) as follows:

84 SOURCE OF FUNDS: Designated Acquisitions – Measure WW Undesignated (CIP 229900WW00) $31,017 TOTAL CURRENT APPROPRIATION $31,017

USE OF FUNDS: Alameda County-Mbanugo / Leona Canyon Acquisition (CIP 218400WP38) Purchase Price $31,017 Previous appropriation for due diligence expenses 20,000 TOTAL CURRENT PROJECT COST: $51,017

BACKGROUND

Pursuant to State R&T Code, each year the county tax collector provides notice to public agencies that levy property taxes such as the Park District of the forthcoming sale of properties that are five or more years delinquent in payment of property taxes, and that accordingly have been declared tax-defaulted and approved by that county’s board of supervisors for sale at public auction. A public agency receiving such notice may object to the sale of a tax-defaulted property to allow that agency the opportunity to purchase the property directly from the county tax collector for public purposes including parks and open space preservation before the property is offered for sale at public auction. A property acquired directly from the county tax collector in this fashion may be purchased at the minimum bid price set by the tax collector for the public auction, typically equal to the amount of back taxes owed on the property plus any accrued interest and penalties.

In January of this year the Park District received notice from the Alameda County Tax Collector’s Office of the forthcoming auction sale of tax-defaulted properties including the subject property owned by the Mbanugo family. Located in the City of Oakland to the west and downslope of Skyline Boulevard, the 13.66-acre undeveloped property is bordered to the west and south by Leona Canyon Open Space Regional Preserve and is situated on the edge of the canyon directly above the park. The York Equestrian Trail, a public recreational trail owned by the City of Oakland, wraps around the property’s northern boundary and connects to Skyline Boulevard.

The Park District has a long-standing interest in protecting this property and was previously engaged in purchase negotiations with the property owners beginning in 2009 (Board Resolution No. 2009-09-228). A 2011 purchase offer by the Park District was not accepted, and negotiations at that time ended. The current opportunity to acquire the property through tax sale would result in a significant savings to the Park District as the purchase price set by the County pursuant to State R&T Code is well below the previously appraised fair market value of the property. On February 18, 2020, by its Resolution No. 2020-02-030, the Park District Board authorized negotiations for direct purchase of the property from the County.

The property features a ridge covered in oak woodlands, scattered bay trees, and chaparral. A small seasonal creek runs along the property’s western boundary. Acquisition of the property would preserve the largest remaining privately held expanse of open space located adjacent to Leona Canyon, expand and provide a more logical boundary to the park, provide an open space

85 buffer along the City’s York Equestrian Trail, and preserve viewsheds within the park. This acquisition would advance the Park District's 2013 Master Plan goal of acquiring properties contiguous to existing parkland when the timing, price, and conditions of the acquisition are acceptable.

To secure the opportunity to purchase the property directly from the County for park and open space preservation purposes, the Park District must formally object to the sale of the property by public auction. This objection must be in the form of a Resolution by the Park District Board submitted to the County Tax Collector. Acquisition of tax-defaulted property through this mechanism is not assured. The direct sale to the Park District must first be approved by the State Controller’s Office, a process that can take several months. Once the State has approved the purchase and the County has set a date for the sale to occur, all parties of interest, including the current property owners, are advised of the sale date, known as the “pay by” date. The property owners then have until the close of business on the day prior to the pay by date to redeem their property from tax sale by paying all back taxes and penalties owed to the County. The sale of the property to the Park District will proceed only if the property owners do not redeem the tax status of the property in this manner.

h. Resolution Objecting to the Sale at Public Auction of Thirty-three Tax- Defaulted Parcels Totaling 2.52 acres of Real Property by the Alameda County Tax Collector’s Office, and Authorization to Submit a Purchase Application to Alameda County for the Acquisition of the Parcels and to Transfer and Appropriate Funds Necessary to Complete the Purchase: Claremont Canyon Regional Preserve (Reeves/Kelchner)

RECOMMENDATION

The General Manager recommends that the Board of Directors adopt a Resolution objecting to the sale by public auction of thirty-three tax delinquent parcels totaling 2.52 acres of open space land by the Alameda County Tax Collector's Office, authorize staff submit a purchase application to Alameda County for the purchase of the parcels and to accept the properties on behalf of the Park District, and transfer and appropriate the funds necessary to complete the purchase of the properties as an addition to Claremont Canyon Regional Preserve.

REVENUE/COST

The subject parcels may be purchased through the Alameda County Tax Collector’s Office for a total of $225,545 pursuant to State Revenue and Taxation Code Sections 3695 and 3695.4 (State R&T Code). Provided the purchase is approved by the State Controller’s Office and the property owners do not redeem the back taxes owed prior to the sale date set by tax collector, the Park District’s purchase of the parcels can go forward, and staff will return to the Board following completion of the purchase to request the transfer and appropriation of additional funding required to close out this acquisition project and provide for any needed site safety and security measures.

As there are no remaining Measure AA acquisition funds allocated to Claremont Canyon Regional Preserve, staff recommends utilizing funds from the Park District’s “DCLA” General Fund account that is reserved for use on land acquisition projects when other funding is not available. Today’s Board action will authorize the transfer and appropriation of DCLA account funds to project account Alameda County-Boyd/ Claremont Canyon (CIP 251000WP58) as follows:

94 SOURCE OF FUNDS: District-Wide Committed for Land Acquisition Account (CIP 229900DCLA) $225,545 TOTAL CURRENT APPROPRIATION $225,545

USE OF FUNDS: Alameda County-Boyd / Claremont Canyon Acquisition (CIP 251000DCLA) Purchase Price $225,545 Previous appropriation for due diligence expenses 10,000 TOTAL CURRENT PROJECT COST $235,545

BACKGROUND

In January of this year the Park District received notice from the Alameda County Tax Collector’s Office of the forthcoming sale at auction of tax-defaulted properties including 33 parcels totaling 2.52 acres of open space land located along the northerly boundary of Claremont Canyon Regional Preserve in the vicinity of Panoramic Way in Oakland. These “paper subdivision” lots are part of an older subdivision of land within Claremont Canyon in which the majority of the lots proved infeasible to develop. The Park District has acquired a number of these lots over the years, many through tax sale, for the purposes of removing private inholdings and expanding park boundaries to protect additional open space and improve recreational access. The subject parcels feature steep slopes covered in chaparral and scattered oak, Monterey pine and eucalyptus trees. A popular social hiking and jogging trail winds through the parcels and connects from Panoramic Way to the Park District’s Stonewall to Panoramic Trail. Several vantage points offer dramatic vistas of the Bay Area and Pacific Ocean.

Acquisition of these parcels advances the Park District's 2013 Master Plan goal of acquiring properties contiguous to existing parkland when the timing, price, and conditions of the acquisition are acceptable. On February 18, 2020, by its Resolution No. 2020-02-030, the Park District Board authorized negotiations for direct purchase of the subject parcels from the County.

To secure the opportunity to purchase the subject parcels directly from the County for park and open space preservation purposes, the Park District must formally object to their sale by public auction. This objection must be in the form of a Resolution by the Park District Board submitted to the County Tax Collector. Acquisition of tax-defaulted property through this mechanism is

95 not assured. The direct sale to the Park District must first be approved by the State Controller’s Office, a process that can take several months. Once the State has approved the purchase and the County has set a date for the sale to occur, all parties of interest, including the current owners of each parcel, are advised of the sale date, known as the “pay by” date. Each owner then has until the close of business on the day prior to the pay by date to redeem their property from tax sale by paying all back taxes and penalties owed to the County. The sale of the parcels to the Park District will proceed only if the property owners do not redeem the tax status of their respective parcels in this manner.

On February 8, 2020, a fire broke out in the infirmary at Camp Arroyo. The fire was caused by the clothes dryer. This incident resulted in smoke damage to the modular building which is approximately 1,000 square feet in size. This building provides critical medical support to the

104 campers at Camp Arroyo which often serves severely ill children. This project is an emergency. The Taylor Family Foundation is hosting a camp with sick children the weekend of March 27, 2020. If the project is not completed by then, the District would need to rent travel trailers or provide other means to house the children. The District solicit bids from two contractors, Marcon Construction Inc. of Oakland, CA and Balfor. Marcon declined to submit a bid.

The District is insured for property damage through the CSAC-Excess Insurance Authority/Lexington Insurance Company. Balfor has been recommend by insurance as a preferred contractor. Balfor is a highly qualified, full-service property restoration company. Balfor will be responsible for all work necessary to complete the project by March 27, 2020, including the cleaning of all hard surfaces such as the floors, walls, fixtures, counters, registers, windows, lights, medical beds, etc, laundering medical curtains and other fabric items, replacing the drop ceiling tiles, insulation and flexible HVAC ducts, servicing the HVAC system, replacing filters and inspection of the electrical system. The cost proposal that Balfor prepared is reasonable. The General Manager approved this emergency contract with work beginning on March 9, 2020.

j. Authorization to Enter into an Agreement with Timelooper, Inc. for Virtual and Augmented Reality Program and Production Services: Interpretive & Recreation Services (Kassebaum//O’Connor)

RECOMMENDATION

The General Manager recommends that the Board of Directors authorize an agreement with Timelooper, Inc., not to exceed $90,200, to develop new digital experiences that will expand the Parks to People outreach program.

REVENUE / COST

The project is fully funded through three grants in the amount of $90,200 awarded to Interpretation and Recreation Services by the Regional Parks Foundation, budgeted through the 2020 Adopted Budget in Account 101-5241-547-6191.

BACKGROUND

In 2019, the Park District began the Parks to People program run through Mobile Visitor Center II at Shadow Cliffs Regional Recreation Area. Funded through grants from the Regional Parks Foundation, Parks to People is a virtual and augmented reality enhanced program that provides people who are unable to visit our parks an opportunity to interact with them in a fully digital, or digitally enhanced environment.

During 2019, the Southeast Interpretive Sector’s staff worked with Timelooper, Inc to create four virtual reality (VR) experiences focusing on sustainability at Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park, geology at Las Trampas Wilderness Regional Preserve, the Alameda Creek watershed in Sunol Wilderness Regional Preserve, and history, resources and future development at Concord Hills Regional Park. These experiences are available on the Timelooper App to users around the world. Through public events attended by the Mobile Visitor Center II, independent downloads on the Timelooper App, and during naturalist led programs, the Parks to People program served over 16,000 people in the first year.

110 For 2020, the Regional Parks Foundation has awarded Interpretive & Recreation Services three grants to expand and improve these program offerings. The first grant allows for the expansion of the Parks to People program into classrooms, senior centers and other locations by developing a version of all Park District VR experiences available on reusable headsets.

The second experience will be a 360-degree view from Mission Peak. It will highlight Bay Area history and allow the user to view the present and see into the past and future. This experience will focus on the impact that people have on the landscape including modern climate resiliency efforts.

The final experience is taking place at Coyote Hills Regional Park. Ohlone people will be interviewed and the recordings will become digital holograms. These will be embedded into a VR experience featuring the Ohlone people and their ancestors at Coyote Hills. In addition, the holograms will be accessible to people hiking in Coyote Hills, as augmented reality avatars allowing the Ohlone people to tell their story directly to the public and allowing an additional 8,000-10,000 participants to be served by this program.

This contract will allow the Parks to People program to reach new audiences and will expand the types of stories available through this new interpretive media.

ALTERNATIVES

None are recommended.

k. Approval of Accounting Adjustments to Reflect the Disposal of One Fixed Asset with a Book Value Over $25,000 (Strawson O’Hara/Auker)

RECOMMENDATION

The General Manager and the Board Finance Committee (by unanimous vote) recommend that the Board of Directors approve the accounting adjustments to reflect the disposal of one fixed asset with a book value over $25,000 during the 2019 fiscal year.

REVENUE/COST

There is no revenue/cost impact associated with the acceptance of the report.

BACKGROUND

The District tracks and depreciates fixed assets using the enterprise resource planning (ERP) system known as One Solution. Annually, the District performs an inventory of assets and records an accounting adjustment to “write-off” the remaining net book value (original cost less accumulated depreciation) of any asset no longer in the District’s possession. The Operations- Fleet Manager reviews and determines the best disposal method for surplus equipment.

Per Section VIII (I) of the Board Operating Guidelines-Financial Controls – Adjustments to Financial Records, items with a book value of over $25,000 are subject to Board review and action to remove them from the Fixed Assets Inventory. For 2019, one asset disposal meets this requirement: a central heating system at Coyote Hills Visitor Center with a book value of $32,665.50.

The following is a summary of assets disposed in 2019:

- 48 assets were disposed through the Board-approved auction process. $148,269 was received from First Capitol Auction, Inc. for these items. All but four of the items were fully depreciated.

114 - 20 assets were determined not to be auction-able and were disposed or recycled. The net book value of these items combined was $55,031 at the time of disposal.

- 2 assets were listed as stolen: Ventek Paystations which both had a net book value of zero. The thefts occurred at Coyote Hills Regional Park and Quarry Lakes Regional Recreation Area.

A detailed listing of all fixed assets disposed of during 2019 is attached. The one fixed asset with a net book value over $25,000 is highlighted on the second page of the attached report. This report was reviewed by the Board Finance Committee on February 26, 2020.

ALTERNATIVES

None are recommended.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors of the East Bay Regional Park District hereby authorizes the retirement and “write off” of one fixed asset with a net book value of $32,665.50, as detailed in the Board material, from the District’s financial records as of December 31, 2019; and

L. Authorization to Appropriate Funds and Execute a Contract with Student Conservation Association (SCA) for Trail Maintenance and Fuels Management Projects: Distict-wide (Barrington/O’Connor)

RECOMMENDATION

The General Manager recommends that the Board of Directors approve a contract with the Student Conservation Association (SCA) to provide semi-skilled labor for trail and fuel management projects District-wide for a ten-month period between May 2020 through March 2021, and authorize the appropriation of $118,100 from the General Fund to the Maintenance and Skilled Trades (MAST) Public Works Division #2 to support the work of the trail crew.

REVENUE/COST

Funding for the SCA contract will not exceed $250,000. These funds are budgeted in the 2020 MAST Public Works Division #2 operating budget (Account 101-5950-000-6444). The contract includes wages for Student Conservation Crew members and leaders, along with transportation costs. The contract amount also includes the provision of temporary housing for the SCA crew members in a Park District residence during the term of the contract.

This action also proposes appropriation of an additional $118,100 from the General Fund for supplies and services to support the SCA Small Trails /Fuels Management Crew operating budget. These supplies and services will cover the cost of equipment, safety supplies, travel, utilities, and maintenance contracts to be used by the SCA crew members to perform work.

BACKGROUND

A District-wide Small Trails / Fuels Management Crew was established in 2019. This crew consists of one full-time Alternate Work Program Supervisor and a youth labor crew provided by the SCA. One-time Discretionary Funds were approved in the 2019 Adopted Budget for the cost of the SCA crew, along with supplies and services. The 2020 Adopted Budget designated $250,000 for SCA contract costs, however, supplies and services for the crew were not budgeted; therefore an additional $118,100 is needed to support the crew’s activities in 2020 and to ensure the program’s continued success.

120 The model for this new crew represents an opportunity for the Park District to continue and enhance its partnership with the SCA and provide relevant job training and education to young adults seeking future employment as park professionals.

The SCA has provided jobs, life skills training, social responsibility, conservation awareness and leadership skills to young adults through environmental service projects since 1957. The SCA has partnered with the Park District, the National Parks Service, the U.S. Department of the Interior and many other agencies. Past SCA projects completed in partnership with the Park District include such labor-intensive jobs as the removal of illegal trails, fence repair, erosion control, vegetation/fuel management, and habitat restoration work.

ALTERNATIVES

None are recommended.

The requested contract amendment and transfer and appropriation is for the Develop the Dumbarton Quarry Campground project that is currently under construction.

BACKGROUND

Dumbarton Quarry Associates (DQA) is constructing the Dumbarton Quarry Campground on the Bay for the Park District, pursuant to the Indenture Agreement for Transfer of Real Property (Agreement) dated August 18, 1977 (as amended and modified in March 1997, December 2007, December 2008, November 2012, and July 2017) between the Park District and DQA. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, most project expenses are to be paid by DQA. However, some expenses are the Park District’s obligation, and the Park District has been directly dispersing funds for these expenses related to the Dumbarton Quarry Project (Board Resolution No. 2018-08-212).

The campground will consist of 62 full-hook up RV sites, six new buildings including a camp store, an amphitheater, playground, picnic areas, parking, and trails. It will be the first full-service campground operated by the Park District. When completed, the total value of the improvements is anticipated to exceed $15 million.

Staff procured a contract with Anchor CM for construction management services in accordance with Board Operating Guidelines and recommend that the Park District amend the contract for the duration of construction. Engaging the services of a construction management firm is consistent with the District’s typical practice for a project of this scale and complexity. The consultant’s scope of services will include construction management, inspector and engineer assistance, estimating for betterments, cost validation, and development of thorough, detailed and organized records of the design documents and construction events for the campground. Staff believes a construction management firm is necessary for successful project delivery.

Construction of the campground began in 2019 and is partially complete, with most grading and main utilities installed. Buildings branch utilities and appurtenances are partially complete. Finish grading, paving, irrigation, site furnishings and landscaping work remains. Campground construction is anticipated to continue through 2020 with closeout activities extending into 2021.

ALTERNATIVES No alternatives are recommended.

City of San Leandro – San Leandro Shoreline Development Project

On February 24, 2020 the San Leandro City Council authorized adopting an addendum to the Certified Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Shoreline Development Project. The Council also authorized adopting the zoning map amendment, a general plan text amendment, a general plan map amendment, and a disposition and development agreement that includes a purchase and sale agreement with Cal Coast Companies LLC Inc. to facilitate the future development of approximately 75 acres of the San Leandro shoreline area as part of a public- private partnership. The public-private partnership is proposed to result in up to 485 housing units, a 220-room hotel with attached restaurant, a 15,000 square foot two-story restaurant and banquet facility, a 3,000 square foot market and café, a redesigned nine-hole golf course, a new library, a nine-acre passive park, and related site improvements. The project site is located along the San Leandro shoreline south of Oyster Bay Regional Shoreline and includes a portion of the San Francisco Bay Trail.

City of Berkeley – Lease Agreement with California Department of Transportation

On March 10, 2020, the Berkeley City Council directed the City Manager to negotiate a lease agreement with California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for the leasing of State property at University Avenue and West Frontage Road. The property will be used for a temporary outdoor shelter with restrooms, hand washing stations and garbage service. For the past year, a growing number of people experiencing homelessness, approximately 100, have camped on State and City property adjacent to the freeway on- and off-ramps at the intersection of University Avenue and Interstate 80. The City is working with Caltrans to develop a safer, more structured environment for people to shelter on the Caltrans right of way until a permanent location can be identified. The Park District manages the adjacent McLaughlin Eastshore State Park and maintains parts of the San Francisco Bay Trail that traverse along West Frontage Road.

STAFF PRESENTATION No presentation.

GM COMMENTS COVID-19 RESPONSE In response to the global COVID-19 virus pandemic that has made its way to the Park District’s communities of Alameda and Contra Costa counties, a cross-divisional Park District team has spent the last few weeks learning about the threats posed by this virus. The Park District is closely following communications from the CDC and our local public health agencies and communicating with District staff on ways to keep themselves safe and healthy at work, with our top priority being the health and well-being of our staff and park visitors as we prepare protocols to protect critical organizational functions. On March 10, Contra Costa County Health Services issued guidance recommending cancellation of large community gatherings where 50 or more people are within arm’s length of each-other. Out of an abundance of caution, the Park District has decided to cancel all Park District staff and community events of more than 50 people throughout the two-counties through March 29, and will be refunding fees for all affected reservations – so far this does not include private or concessionaire-held events. Refunds are also available for any member of the public who decides to cancel their unaffected event or reservation through April 30.

The cost to the Park District for this action is $21,000, which represents the cost of the utilities provided by the Park District to the caretaker residence and adjacent buildings. Wieskamp seconded. The motion was approved unanimously.

Agenda Item 2: Judge John Sutter Regional Shoreline Park Operational Plan and Development Shoreline Unit Manager Jeff Manley and Park Supervisor David Mecchi provided updates and a background overview of the new Judge John Sutter Regional Shoreline Operational Plan through a presentation. Items included background of the Gateway Park Project Concept, funding and agreements, Oakland Venue Management events, parking areas and lots, west overflow features and storage, trail access and connections, observations pier trail,

Waespi inquired on the opening date. Mecchi replied that the park is slated for opening in late Spring.

Acting Business Services Manager Tiffany Margulici provided an overview of the relationship between the Park District and Oakland Venue Management (OVM).

Acting Business Services Manager Tiffany Margulici provided an overview of the concessionaire and agreement through a presentation. Items included a review of the location, background, types of rental equipment, Request for Proposal process and timeline, expected revenue, planned investment, proposed projects, and staff recommendation.

Waespi inquired if the Concession Fee with revenue gross receipts could exceed the $8,200 established by staff. Margulici replied staff arrived at this figure by reviewing the past five years of sales. The amount could exceed $8,200, if sales are good. The fee base will remain at 4%.

142 Waespi inquired if Outback Adventures (Outback) have other locations. Outback Adventures Jay Ganjei replied there are locations in Cupertino at Stevens Creek Reservoir and in San Rafael at Buck’s Launching.

Waespi inquired if Outback has ever been sued. Ganjei replied no. Waespi questioned if an accident does occur with one of your renters, does Outback have an agreement for liability in the event a renter fell off the boat. Ganjei replied liability depends on the victim(s) and whether they or their family believe who is liable. Safety is a top concern and is enforced by way of contracts and postings.

Castile provided a more detailed overview of the safety measures set in place at the park by park Lifeguard Services and Public Safety staff.

Rosario inquired if Outback equipment is removed from the storage area during the winter. Ganjei replied that staff has evacuated twice during flooding and has been working with park staff to come up with a preparedness plan and to monitor water levels during a storm event.

Rosario inquired if there is language in the agreement related to moving the equipment. Margulici stated there is standard language in the contract related to such incidents/occurrences.

Rosario inquired if records are kept of renters. Outback Adventures Christina Camp replied there are hard copy agreements maintained of renters.

C. BUSINESS BEFORE THE BOARD

6. COMMITTEE REPORTS

c. Finance Committee Minutes and Recommended Actions from the Meeting of February 26, 2020 (Coffey)

Attendees Board: Colin Coffey, Ellen Corbett and Dee Rosario

Staff: Robert E. Doyle, Ana M. Alvarez, Debra Auker, Deborah Spaulding, Michelle Strawson O’Hara, David Sumner, Ruby Tumber, Meadow D’Arcy, Mary Brown, Kim Balingit, Ren Bates

Speakers: Rosalva Flores & Ashley Casey, Brown Armstrong, Accountancy Corporation Monique Spyke, Managing Director, PFM

Public: Rick Rickard, PAC member

Committee Chair Colin Coffey began the meeting at 12:37PM with the introduction of Committee members.

Agenda Item No. 1 December 31, 2019 Investment Report and Portfolio Review

Assistant Finance Officer Deborah Spaulding presented a report of the District’s investment activity as of the end of the fourth quarter 2019. The report is in accordance with State law and in conformity with the District’s 2019 Investment Policy. The market value of the District’s pooled cash and investments as of December 31, 2019 was $263.5 million. This reflects an increase of $29.4 million from September 30, 2019, which is mainly the result of the timing of property tax revenue. The District’s pension trust, project bond funds and debt service funds held an additional $101.4 million.

Graphs accompanying the investment reports were provided in the Finance Committee packet.

AFO Spaulding introduced Monique Skype with PFM Asset Management, who gave an update on the District’s investment portfolio, current investment environment and discussed the District’s investment benchmarking.

145 Committee member Dee Rosario inquired if the coronavirus epidemic is prolonged could it result in a recession. Ms. Skype responded concerns of the coronavirus are the impact it will have on consumer activity (spending) and manufacturing of goods, two major components of growth.

Committee member Rosario asked how it would affect the District’s investment strategy. Ms. Skype advised the strategy in this case would be continuing to increase weighting towards US Treasuries. In addition, PFM would continue to evaluate the corporate securities, and possibly decrease exposure due to the impact of the coronavirus on manufacturing and consumer spending.

Committee Chair Colin Coffey requested clarification of Federal Agencies yield spread comparisons. Ms. Skype replied a yield spread is the spread of that sector or security to a comparable maturity US Treasury.

Recommendation: Motioned by Dee Rosario and seconded by Ellen Corbett that the Finance Committee recommends to the full Board of Directors approval of the December 21, 2019 Investment Report. Motion Approved.

Agenda Item No. 2 District’s 2020 Investment Policy Review and Update on Investment Strategy

Assistant Finance Officer Deborah Spaulding advised that each year, the East Bay Regional Park District updates its Investment Policy. Finance staff reviews the policy with its investment advisor, PFM, before it is presented to the Finance Committee. After Finance Committee review, the Policy is brought to the full Board of Directors for approval. This year, three changes to the Investment Policy are recommended:

• New section added “Environmental Social Governance” (ESG) Investment Strategy. • Replace “Environmental Responsibility” section with a more comprehensive “Sustainability” statement. • Clarification allowing investments over five-year time horizon.

AFO Spaulding introduced Monique Skype with PFM who gave a brief review on Environmental Social Governance (ESG) as one of the sustainable investment approaches and how it looks at companies managing environmental and governance practices on the day to day management of their business.

Ms. Skype presentation included PFM’s Fixed Income ESG investment approach, the District’s portfolio, implementing ESG Investment Solution and defining ESG objectives and parameters.

Recommendation: Motioned by Ellen Corbett and seconded by Dee Rosario that the Finance Committee recommends to the full Board of Directors for approval of the 2020 Investment Policy for District funds. Motion approved.

146

Assistant Finance Officer Michelle Strawson O’Hara outlined the Finance Committee responsibilities as written in the Board Operating Guidelines.

AFO O’Hara introduced Rosalva Flores and Ashley Casey with Brown Armstrong CPA. Ms. Flores and Ms. Casey presented the scope, timing and objectives of the audit to Committee Members.

Recommendation: This item is informational only. No action required.

Agenda Item No. 6 (this agenda item moved up as requested by Directory Coffey) 2020 Board Finance Committee Work Plan and 2019 Board Finance Committee Accomplishments

Agenda Item No. 4 Job Order Contracting Program Quarterly Report

Capital Program Manager Ren Bates provided a JOC Program status update. In 2015 the Board awarded the first Job Order Contracts, at a total value of $6 million. On May 21, 2019 the Board awarded another round of eight $1 million job order contracts.

Capital Programs Manager Bates concluded his presentation by stating that the JOC program is working well, is a beneficial tool to the Park District, and has generated considerable time savings and reduced contracting costs.

Recommendation: This item is for information only. No action required.

148 Agenda Item No. 5 2019 Disposal of Fixed Assets

Accounting Manager Kim Balingit reported that the District annually performs an inventory of fixed assets, identifying items that have been disposed in the prior year, and recording an accounting adjustment to “write-off” the remaining net book value of any asset no longer in the District’s possession. Per Board Operating Guidelines, items with a book value (cost less accumulated depreciation) of over $25,000 are subject to Board review and action. For 2019, one asset disposal met this requirement: a central heating system at Coyote Hills Visitor Center.

An informational list was provided to the Committee summarizing all fixed assets disposed in 2019, regardless of value. In 2019, 48 assets were disposed through the Board approved action process and $148,269 was received at auction for these items. In addition, 20 assets were determined not be auctionable and were disposed or recycled. The net book value of these items combined was $55,031. Two Ventek Pay stations were stolen, each with a net book value of zero.

Committee member Rosario asked if any information in the Ventek machines are at risk. Accounting Manager Balingit replied no, adding the credit card information is transported to Ventek Company, nothing is retained in the machines.

Committee member Corbett requested a cost benefit analysis in determining whether the District will replace the pay stations and information on enforcement of ensuring parking tickets being purchased and displayed in vehicle windows. GM Doyle noted the pay stations are common in all park systems. GM Doyle will request staff look at using more durable pay stations.

Deputy General Manager Ana M. Alvarez advised committee that the Operations Division replaced machines in 2018 and are tracking closely with Public Safety monitoring of the parking. DGM Alvarez advised AGM of Operations will bring back to the committee specific revenue numbers.

Recommendation: Motioned by Ellen Corbett and seconded by Dee Rosario that the Finance Committee recommends to the full Board of Directors for approval of accounting adjustments to reflect the disposal of one fixed asset with a book value over $25,000 during the 2019 fiscal year. Motion approved.

31 • WINTER158 2020 CALIFORNIA PARKS & RECREATION Park It: District urging visitors to bring only reusable bottles Pi Day to be observed March 14 on hike in Sunol Regional Wilderness, for fee of $3.14 By Ned MacKay | East Bay Regional Park District PUBLISHED: March 9, 2020 at 5:00 a.m. | UPDATED: March 9, 2020 at 8:59 a.m.

Dan Honda/staff archives Assistant Professor Michael Allocca, right, laughs as Professor Charles Hamaker tries to clear his eyes after being hit in the face with shaving cream pies at Saint Mary’s College in Moraga on a previous Pi Day, a March 14 celebration of the ratio (3.14) of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. At Sunol Regional Wilderness this March 14, naturalist Erica Stephens will observe the day by leading a hike from to the high valley barn, where a pie treat will await.

In my last column I urged park visitors to carry out and recycle plastic water bottles that they bring into East Bay Regional Park District locations, instead of just discarding them. The park district is going a step further, encouraging people to reduce plastic use by bringing nondisposable water bottles when they visit parklands. To help with this, the district is in the process of installing water bottle refilling stations at a number of regional parks.

There’s more — the district is starting a pilot program to expand recycling and enable food scrap composting. This consists of placing three-stream compost/recycle/landfill containers at various parks. Compost includes food scraps and food-soiled paper/cardboard. Recycling includes clean paper and cardboard in addition to bottles and cans. Look for the new containers at Anthony Chabot, Briones, Robert Crown, Diablo Foothills, Garin, Lake Chabot, Sibley and Tilden Nature Area.

Sunol: Mathematicians among us recognize March 14 (3/14) as Pi Day, an occasion to celebrate a mathematical constant: the ratio (3.14) of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. At Sunol Regional Wilderness, naturalist Erica Stephens will observe the day by leading a hike from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. to the high valley barn, where a pie treat will await. The hike is for ages 7 and older, and there’s a fee of — what else? — $3.14. Registration is required. Call 888-327-2757 and select option 2.

And all ages will enjoy a Froggy Friends hike from 1 to 3 p.m. March 15 at Sunol with naturalist Alex Collins. The program will include family-friendly frog activities. The park also has three recurring programs each weekend. Animal feeding time is from 10:30 to 11 a.m. every Sunday through April 26 inside the visitor center. Nature crafts are from 10 a.m. to noon every Saturday and Sunday through March 22. And Wild Wonders, a program of games, activities and explorations, is from 2 to 3 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday through March 22.

159 Sunol Wilderness is located at the end of Geary Road off Calaveras Road about 5 miles south of Interstate 680 and the town of Sunol. There’s a parking fee of $5 per vehicle. The recurring programs are all free. Call 510-544-3249.

Fremont: Photographers will enjoy a flower photography program from 9:30 to 11 a.m. March 14 at Coyote Hills Regional Park in Fremont, led by photographer Don Jedlovec and naturalist Kristina Parkison. It’s twofold: get tips on getting professional-grade images of flowers in the park’s butterfly garden, and learn how to attract bird and insect pollinators to your own garden. The program is for ages 12 and older. It’s free, but registration is required. Call 888-327-2757, select option 2 and refer to program number 28116.

Frogs and other amphibians are the focus of a program at Coyote Hills from 10 a.m. to noon and 1 to 3 p.m. March 15 with naturalist Dino Labiste. It’s a walk from the visitor center to the marsh and a chance to make a frog craft to take home. Coyote Hills is at the end of Patterson Ranch Road off Paseo Padre Parkway. There’s a parking fee of $5 per vehicle. Call 510-544-3220.

Berkeley: Frogs and photography are also on the agenda at Tilden Nature Area near Berkeley. Naturalist “Trail Gail” Broesder will lead a search of the nature area ponds for wet wildlife. It’s from 2 to 3 p.m. March 14. And naturalist Anthony Fisher plans a nature photography clinic with your camera or mobile phone, from 1 to 2:30 p.m. March 15. Both programs meet at Tilden’s Environmental Education Center, which is at the north end of Central Park Drive. Call 510-544- 2233.

Oakley: Spiders are the subject of a program from 2 to 3 p.m. March 15 at Big Break Regional Shoreline in Oakley. You can learn about the eight-leggers and join in some arachnid-themed activities. Big Break is at 69 Big Break Road off Oakley’s Main Street. Call 888-327-2757, ext. 3050.

Online: This is just a sample. It’s springtime and there are lots of programs on the calendar in the regional parks. For full information, visit the park district’s website, ebparks.org.

165 PG&E removing trees, clearing brush at East Bay park near exposed gas line Lafayette residents raised concerns about an exposed gas pipeline in September at Briones Regional Park.

LAFAYETTE — PG&E has begun removing trees and clearing vegetation at Briones Regional Park in response to concerns raised by residents about six months ago that the heavy brush could potentially fuel a wildfire where an exposed gas pipeline lies.

Thirteen trees and eight brush areas are being cleared out for safety, said Pacific Gas & Electric spokeswoman Tamar Sarkissian.

While an assessment study commissioned by PG&E “found no immediate threat posed by the trees in the area, we agree with their recommendation to remove several trees, out of an abundance of caution for the safety of the pipelines and the nearby community,” Sarkissian said in an email statement.

PG&E began the cleanup near Buckeye Ranch Trial on Feb. 24 and expects to wrap it up by the end of this week. Sarkissian said about 10 to 12 utility employees were at the park site this past week, including tree crew members, a forester and biologist.

They’ll also also remove trees and brush at the Girl Scout Camp — which is private property — adjacent to the park. PG&E will begin that project once the Buckeye Ranch Trail work is done.

Briones Regional Park is part of the East Bay Regional Park District in the Springhill neighborhood.

166 Save Lafayette Trees, a grassroots group, first raised concerns about an exposed gas line in Briones Regional Park during a Sept. 4, 2019, meeting of Lafayette’s gas safety task force. Michael Dawson of Save Lafayette Trees shared photos of the 40-foot exposed pipeline span. A later segment of the same pipeline was found exposed near the Girl Scout Camp about a half- mile away.

PG&E hired a scientific and engineering firm to conduct an assessment of the two pipe spans, Sarkissian said. “The third-party assessment was completed and confirmed both pipe spans are safe for continued operation,” she said.

Sarkissian has said the pipe segment near the Buckeye Ranch Trail is “operated as an intentional span across the ravine; such spans are an accepted industry standard” and are subject to “ongoing monitoring and inspections to ensure the safe operations. We know through the results of our latest inspections that it continues to operate safely.”

Michael and Gina Dawson of Save Lafayette Trees were relieved by PG&E’s actions.

“Frankly, we’ll now sleep better knowing PG&E is finally removing these trees,” Michael Dawson said in an email. “It’s ugly, but necessary. We brought these trees to PG&E’s attention, and it’s taken them six months to address a dangerous situation. What’s unclear is why PG&E ignores the untested pipe welds and flammable tar coating of the 70-year-old exposed pipelines, which we also highlighted to PG&E.”

Michael Dawson said his group’s “ongoing issue with PG&E is that they don’t adequately prioritize local gas safety.”

Gina Dawson said she remained concerned about overhanging trees above the exposed pipeline.

“Like PG&E’s electrical utility vegetation management, this ‘gas safety’ project is reactive and does not timely or responsibly address community safety risk posed by inadequate maintenance of the aging infrastructure,” she said in an email. “Basically, there’s a lot more to be done for us to feel PG&E is truly putting ‘safety first.’ “

167 Park It: ‘But it’s biodegradable’ not acceptable excuse to litter Please don’t leave trash, even organic waste, in the East Bay Regional Park District By Ned MacKay | East Bay Regional Park District PUBLISHED: March 2, 2020 at 5:00 a.m. | UPDATED: March 2, 2020 at 5:08 a.m.

Victoria Sheridan/BANG archives Dan Oranji, of Antioch, points out fish in an aquarium to his daughter, Sierra Oranji, 6, at Big Break Regional Shoreline’s visitor center in Oakley. The visitor center offers a series of great programs every weekend, including Delta Discoveries from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday.

After a recent hike at Black Diamond Mines Regional Preserve in Antioch, I decided that it’s time again for one of my occasional sermons on the topic of trash in the East Bay Regional Park District, especially orange peels. There were so many of the peels scattered around that it looked like someone was leaving a trail of them in case they got lost. Since you’re reading this column, I’m probably preaching to the choir. If that’s so, please help by spreading the word — pack up your trash.

People may drop the peels because they consider them to be biodegradable. The peels do eventually deteriorate, but it takes a really long time, and meanwhile they leave an unsightly mess. Animals don’t generally consume the peels; they don’t like the taste any more than we do. I also often find discarded plastic water bottles. These are really easy to pack up. Just stomp on the bottle, roll it up from the bottom, put the cap back on, and you have a compact, lightweight item you can put into the recycle bin at the trailhead.

Other trash such as candy wrappers and unwanted food items can be taken out in containers you’ve brought along for that purpose. The plastic bags in which this paper is often wrapped are handy receptacles. Thanks for your help in keeping all public parks free of litter.

Oakley: While we’re out in East Contra Costa, the visitor center at Big Break Regional Shoreline in Oakley offers a series of great programs every weekend. Delta Discoveries is from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday. Drop in any time during the day for hands-on arts and crafts activities, with a different topic each week.

And you can help the staff monitor the Delta’s water quality during a program from 9 to 10 a.m. every Saturday and Sunday. The group tests for dissolved oxygen, pH scale, conductivity and more. Results go into a database for use by researchers, scientists and water managers. Big Break is at 69 Big Break Road off Oakley’s Main Street. For information, call 888-327-2757, ext. 3050.

168 Orinda: Bird watchers will enjoy a series of Monday bird walks led by naturalist Anthony Fisher. There’s one from 9 a.m. to noon March 9 at Briones Regional Park. Meet at the Bear Creek staging area. It’s on Bear Creek Road about 5 miles east of the intersection with San Pablo Dam Road in Orinda. Call 510-544-2233.

Berkeley: There’s always something interesting going on at the Environmental Education Center in Tilden Nature Area near Berkeley. For example, naturalist “Trail Gail” Broesder will help visitors make a unique gift and a gentle exfoliate in the form of an undyed wool washcloth, in a program from 2 to 3:30 p.m. March 7. It’s for ages 8 and older, and you’ll need the entire time to complete the project.

And Anthony Fisher will lead a newt safari from 1 to 2:30 p.m. March 8. Newts are a variety of salamander with toxic skin that migrates to ponds and streams in the winter to mate and produce a new generation. The center is at the north end of Tilden’s Central Park Drive, accessible from Canon Drive in Berkeley. Call 510-544-2233.

Alameda: At Crab Cove Visitor Center in Alameda, Family Nature Fun Hour is in session from 2 to 3 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday, with games, crafts and special surprises. After that, watch the staff feed the fish in the center’s aquaria from 3 to 3:30 p.m.

And a special program from 6 to 7:30 p.m. March 8 will take advantage of a minus tide to watch the sun set and moon rise. Watch for animals that prowl the rocky shore during low tide. Wear old, warm clothes and boots that can get muddy. Crab Cove is at 1252 McKay Ave. off Alameda’s Central Avenue. Call 510-544-3187.

Fremont: At Coyote Hills Regional Park in Fremont, naturalist Kristina Parkison will wheel her Curiosity Cart to a hidden location along the trails between 1 and 2:30 p.m. March 7. Find it, and Kristina will reveal the artifacts of cultural and natural history that it contains.

And snakes are the stars of a drop-in program at the visitor center anytime from 10 a.m. to noon or 1 to 2:30 p.m. March 8 with naturalist Dino Labiste. Meet a variety of snake that lives in the park, learn how snakes have become part of our folklore and create a snake spiral craft to take home. Coyote Hills is at the end of Patterson Ranch Road off Paseo Padre Parkway. There’s a parking fee of $5 per vehicle; the programs are free of charge. Call 510-544-3220. This is /just a sample of activities available throughout the park district. For the full story, visit the district’s website at ebparks.org.

169 Sunday Getaway to Lake Chabot in Castro Valley Tom Stienstra March 1, 2020 Updated: March 1, 2020 4 a.m.

Lake Chabot is 89% full, temperatures are forecast to rise into the 70s as spring takes hold for boating, fishing, hiking and biking on the gorgeous lake in Castro Valley that had a recent 1,000-pound trout plant. Photo: David Smith / Special to The Chronicle

Why now: As March arrives, so has spring at gorgeous Lake Chabot. The lake is 89% full, with 4 feet of water clarity and fresh trout plants. The completed work at the dam means the paved lakeside trails are again 100% open for biking, extended walks and picnics.

Location: Lake Chabot is in Castro Valley, nestled at the foot of the East Bay foothills.

Fees: $5 parking, $2 per dog, $4 for trailer, $2 to hand launch kayaks or canoes, plus $4 watercraft inspection.

Boat: Lake Chabot provides a rare chance where you can explore quiet, pretty coves across calm, emerald water. From the small boat ramp or marina, you venture straight out on the lake to little Live Oak Island. Then, venture straight ahead past the island along Half Moon Bay on the right (bald eagles once nested directly above here) and up into Bass Cove. A right turn at the island instead takes you up around Raccoon Point and into Honker Bay.

Access: Kayaks or canoes less than 20 feet are allowed. You need to be able to handle a short portage, about five minutes, from the parking lot. Rentals: Electric boats cost $35 for an hour, $55 for two hours, $65 for four hours, $80 for day. Canoes and pedal boats are also available.

Bike/walk: Paved shoreline trails, the West Shore Trail and the East Shore Trail, contour above the lake and provide an easy, undulating route for a family-style bike ride. The lookouts along the way provide a series of gorgeous views at different areas of the lake. If you start at the marina and then link both routes, riding out to the ends of the lake and back on each trail, it is a 9.6-mile round trip. Easy, fun, beautiful.

Fish: East Bay Parks made a special plant of 1,000 pounds of trout this past week, and has scheduled another for the week of March 9-13. With cool water and 4 feet of water clarity, trout fishing has been good most days. Year after year, the best spot for shoreline bait dunkers is often the first dock out of the marina. Use Power Nuggets (or mice trails) on one hook,

170 nightcrawler on the other. $5 daily fishing permit, state fishing license required to fish. Rod- and-reel rentals, bait and tackle are available at marina shop.

Bald eagle: Sighting one of the bald eagles that occasionally roam the lake and fish for trout is always a thrill. The best viewpoint is usually in the vicinity of Alder Point along the West Shore Trail, where you gaze across the high, forested slope above Half Moon Bay. I’ve seen them perched up on trees here several times.

Dogs: Leashed dogs permitted, no dogs permitted in lake.

Swimming, water contact: No swimming or water contact is permitted.

Map/brochure: Free at park entrance; PDF at website; by mail at 888-327-2757, option 5, extension 2.

GPS, getting there: 17600 Lake Chabot Road, Castro Valley

Contacts: Lake Chabot Marina, 510-247-2526, Lake Chabot Recreation, www.lakechabotrecreation.com (no updated fishing report); Lake Chabot Regional Park, 888- 327-2757, option 3, extension 4536, www.ebparks.org; East Bay Angler’s Edge, www.ebparks.org — click on “Activities,” then “fishing,” then “Anglers’ Edge.”

171 Mushroom foraging connects people to nature, but officials hope to stem treasure hunts By Saskia Hatvany Special to The Bee February 25, 2020 11:27 AM

Taylor Bright has a degree in biology and is involved with Bay Area Applied Mycology, one of the many local mushroom clubs in the United States.

Saskia Hatvany

“There!” my guide exclaimed as he pointed at what most would describe as an unremarkable patch of forest ground. He stepped gingerly through a patch of poison oak, ducked under a drooping branch, and reached for what looked like a crumpled leaf.

“What kind is it?” I asked.

He gently cleared leaves to reveal a fleshy orange-colored mushroom the size of a baseball.

“Cantharellus californicus,” said Bryan Bramlett — the 33-year-old forager and permaculturist who led a scouting for mushrooms in the Oakland hills on a cool February morning. Chanterelle is the common name for the species. The trumpet-shaped fungus is prized for its rich, meaty flavor and can fetch up to $50 a pound in local markets.

About two years ago, Bramlett started Healing Ecosystems, a foraging education business based in Berkeley. With walks starting at $30, he takes groups on educational foraging walks in local parks and demonstrates how to identify various edible species — including mushrooms.

“I was just super into it,” said Bramlett. “I realized that there was a demand for it and that people would actually pay you to take them out and teach them about plants.”

Foraging for mushrooms is an ancient practice, but lately, the activity has been gaining popularity with a younger crowd. The hashtag #mushroomhunting and #mushroomsofinstagram have each been used hundreds of thousands of times on Instagram, and a quick scroll through reveals plenty of flannel-wearing millenials inspecting tree trunks and proudly holding up their day’s bounty. In Northern California, a Google search presents dozens of opportunities for learning how to forage edible mushrooms with local clubs and businesses.

There are multiple groups in the Sacramento area with websites and Facebook groups. The Sacramento Area Mushroomers, for instance, costs $10 annually and they regularly have events.

Taylor Bright is equally passionate about the vast world of mycology — the branch of biology concerned with the study of fungi. As we walked through the forest, she routinely stopped in her

172 tracks to open an encyclopedia-sized book filled with hundreds of colorful illustrations of mushrooms.

At 25, Bright has a degree in biology and is involved with the Bay Area Applied Mycology, one of the many local mushroom clubs in the United States.

“The fact that I got a degree in biology and never had to take a mycology course blows my mind. It’s this huge mega-science that is so left out of the academic world, and it’s a foundational part of our ecology that we are overlooking,” Bright said as she inspected a tiny spindly mushroom with a cap no bigger than a button.

Dr. Dennis E. Desjardin, professor of mycology at San Francisco State University for the last 20 years and scientific advisor to the Mycological Society of San Francisco, said he has noticed an uptick in interest in the field, but not one U.S university or college offers a concentration or degree in mycology.

Bright thinks that has to do with the fact that mushrooms remain largely feared and misunderstood, and said that not all toxic mushrooms are deadly. “In reality, a very very small percentage of mushrooms out there are actually going to do you significant harm,” said Bright.

In California, foraging for mushrooms is not encouraged in every state and regional park. Close to the Bay Area, the nearest park that allows collecting for personal use is Salt Point State Park in Sonoma County. The permit is free but fines are steep for those who take more than the 3- pound daily limit.

Dave Mason, spokesperson for the East Bay Regional Park district, said restrictions against mushroom picking are mainly in place for safety reasons, as Northern California is home to two of the most world’s deadliest mushrooms: the Western Destroying Angel and the Death Cap. Parks also wish to preserve and protect the plant life as much as possible.

Like many mushroom enthusiasts, Desjardin believes a complete ban would be unfounded.

“There are so many ridiculous aspects to the way they make the rules, and mostly because it’s a little easier to say nobody can collect anything than it is to actually police people that have permits,” said Desjardin. “Many of the parks are allowing people to collect berries to collect some other wild products in a certain quantity, but when you collect a berry, you’re actually removing the seeds of that plant out — that’s much more ecologically destructive than collecting a mushroom after it’s already dispelled the vast majority of its spores,” he said.

Mushrooms are merely the sexual expression of fungi, most of which thrive in vast underground networks of white filaments called mycelia. The largest living thing on the planet is thought to be a huge mycelial network growing underground in Oregon.

“You’re really not doing any harm to the individual — or even to the genetics of the population by collecting mushrooms — unless you’re digging them up underground and disrupting the mycelium,” said Desjardin.

If anything, picking mushrooms and walking around with them can release millions of spores onto the forest ground, helping the organisms proliferate.

173 Enrique Sánchez, who has been with BAAM and the San Francisco Mycological Society for 20 years, said those who are worried that picking mushrooms will have adverse effects on the environment should focus on a more serious threat: global warming.

“Mushrooms have a way of just coming back and coming back. If anything affects mushrooms (it’s) climate change: lack of rain, too much heat or a combination of the two. So it’s more of an environment thing than a human thing,” he said.

For Gen Zers and millennials, who came of age during a climate crisis, there is a sense of returning to nature for the answers. Many lifestyle movements driven by a young demographic — such as minimalism, the zero-waste lifestyle, and the slow food movement — have their roots in eco-consciousness.

In the last few decades, research has suggested that mushrooms have the potential to be turned into powerful superfoods, treat clinical depression and anxiety and clean up oil spills.

Mushrooms are also saprotrophs, meaning that they grow on dead or dying things. This makes them some of the most efficient composters of the natural world, and one of the only organisms that can break down lignin, the main structural component of wood.

“Deforestation and the loss of topsoil are probably one of our largest ecological crises right now, and with the loss of topsoil, the earth is losing its ability to sequester carbon. So one of the big roles of fungi is breaking down this wood, leaf litter and organic material to create this topsoil, ” said Bright.

Like anything, Bramlette and Bright caution that there is a right way and a wrong way to forage. They always encourage their students to step mindfully, not to take more than they need and never eat anything without 100 percent confidence. Above all, they emphasize that learning to forage for food is more than just filling dinner plates, it’s a way to reconnect with the environment.

“We’ve stepped back from our relationship with the natural world, and we’re so reliant on things that are extracted from it, so our relationship of reciprocity to these plants and fungi is very fissured right now, ” said Bright. “The indigenous peoples — all of their food and medicine came from the land. And when you have that type of relationship and reliance on the natural world you will do everything to protect it.”

174 Hiking in the Bay Area: Be careful out there with these hike safety tips The saga of Ian Irwin and Carol Kiparsky shows how nature in the Bay Area is also filled with hazards that can By Martha Ross | [email protected] | Bay Area News Group PUBLISHED: February 25, 2020 at 10:58 a.m. | UPDATED: February 26, 2020 at 4:52 p.m.

Carol Kiparsky and Ian Irwin were rescued on Saturday after 9 days in the Inverness forest. (Marin County Sheriff’s Office)

During the nine days Ian Irwin and Carol Kiparsky crawled through dense forest and brush, or lay collapsed from exhaustion, dehydration and terror, civilization was never far away.

At one point, the Palo Alto couple told their rescuers from the Marin County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue Team that they saw lights from a house about 1,000 feet away. They were finally found less than a mile from their rental cottage and about a half mile from the road bordering the Point Reyes National Seashore.

The gnarled brush and the couple’s deteriorating condition kept them hidden, even as people following their saga found it inconceivable that anyone could simply vanish while hiking in the San Francisco Bay Area, which is home to more than 7 million people, and heavily touristed scenic areas like Point Reyes, which received more than 2.3 million visitors in 2018.

Certainly, the length of time the couple was missing is rare. But it’s not unheard of for people to get lost for a few hours or even overnight, or get injured and need rescue while visiting one of the Bay Area’s many open spaces and local, regional, state and national parks. According to park officials and hiking experts, It happens more frequently than most people realize.

“It only takes some bad luck or perhaps a poor decision to change an easy hike into a dangerous situation,” said Jane Huber, founder of the Bay Area Hiker website and author of the book, “60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: San Francisco.”

The National Parks Service says it conducted 37 search and rescue operations in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area in 2019, and 27 in Point Reyes National Seashore in 2017, according to the latest available data. A California State Parks spokesman said it mounts two or three such operations a year in its 25 Bay Area parks.

And as the Marin County team searched for Irwin and Kiparsky, they also were dealing with another missing person in a nearby open space: A 75-year-old man, who didn’t return home after going for a weekday hike north of San Rafael. He was only found the next day after an extensive search by multiple agencies and search dogs; he had collapsed after suffering a stroke.

Huber said hikers who flock to the Bay Area’s parks looking for easy access to nature often assume they are “safe” because they aren’t venturing into backcountry wilderness. They often also expect that phone service is always available and nothing can go wrong on a quick hike just over the hill from a trailhead’s crowded parking lot.

175 But nature in the Bay Area is filled with many hazards: disorienting forests, deep ravines, lonely beaches, deadly waves, steep and rocky terrain, and surprisingly isolated spots where others never pass. Encounters with dangerous wildlife — mountain lions, coyotes and rattlesnakes — are rare but they do happen.

On certain trails, it’s easy to get confused where junctions aren’t clearly marked, or if the hiker gets distracted by unexpected rain or darkness, Huber said. “One mistake hikers make is to keep going when they suspect they have gotten off track, getting more lost,” Huber said.

Huber agreed that hikers can get hurt in a moment of inattention by tripping on a trail strewn with rocks or tree roots. “I try to be conscious of my surroundings while hiking — being in the moment helps to stay on course and safe,” she added.

And, yes, phone service can be spotty in many parks, said Lance Brede, a captain for the East Bay Regional Parks District police. The district comprises 74 parks over 125,000 acres in Alameda and Contra Costa counties.

That’s why people should never expect to only rely on their phones to navigate or summon help, Huber said. Along with taking a fully-charged cell phone on a hike, Huber said she also carries a paper map and a whistle with her; the latter can be used to call for help or even scare off big cats.

Huber and Brede recommend people always take certain essentials when they hit the trail, even for a short hike, like the one Irwin and Kiparsky planned. The couple, avid hikers who had visited Tomales Bay State Park before, left their wallets and cell phone behind when they embarked on what they thought would be a 15-minute stroll in the woods to see the sunset.

For any hike, pack plenty of water, food, an extra layer of clothing and even a lightweight space blanket, in case the weather changes or something goes wrong and you have to hunker down somewhere and wait for help, parks officials say.

“I also try to set myself up for success before I step a foot on the trail,” Huber said. “That means leaving a note at home with my destination, or texting a friend or partner to let them know where I am headed.”

Darkness is another issue people often don’t account for, which is why hiking experts also recommend carrying flashlights or headlamps. Irwin and Kiparsky reportedly got lost when it became dark sooner than they expected under the thick canopy of trees.

During the summer, Brede said East Bay parks police regularly receive calls from people who get lost after starting the eight-mile trek around Lake Chabot in the late afternoon. Hikers figure they have time to get around the entire reservoir before sunset, but then darkness comes and they can’t see their way.

“When it gets dark, it gets dark really fast,” Brede said. “There is no ambient light.” Hiking Tips

Be Prepared

The California State Parks and U.S. Forest Service recommend:

176 • Always tell someone where you plan to hike and when you plan to return. • Carrying a compass and a paper map or download the map to your phone, so it’s accessible without cell service. • Pack a flashlight and plenty of water and food. • Wear sturdy, comfortable shoes and layered clothing. • In addition, don’t leave established trails and never feed or touch wildlife. If you encounter wildlife on the trail, back away slowly; don’t run.

If you get lost

The U.S. Forest Service recommends people stay calm once they realized they are lost.

• Stay put, unless you have a clear idea of how to retrace your steps. • If you are on a trail, don’t leave it, and don’t walk around aimlessly. • Only as a very last resort, follow a drainage or stream downhill. This is often a difficult path. It could lead to a trail or road, but it could also be dangerous.
