  • H. Parks, Recreation and Open Space
    IV. Environmental Setting and Impacts H. Parks, Recreation and Open Space Environmental Setting The San Francisco Recreation and Park Department maintains more than 200 parks, playgrounds, and open spaces throughout the City. The City’s park system also includes 15 recreation centers, nine swimming pools, five golf courses as well as tennis courts, ball diamonds, athletic fields and basketball courts. The Recreation and Park Department manages the Marina Yacht Harbor, Candlestick (Monster) Park, the San Francisco Zoo, and the Lake Merced Complex. In total, the Department currently owns and manages roughly 3,380 acres of parkland and open space. Together with other city agencies and state and federal open space properties within the city, about 6,360 acres of recreational resources (a variety of parks, walkways, landscaped areas, recreational facilities, playing fields and unmaintained open areas) serve San Francisco.172 San Franciscans also benefit from the Bay Area regional open spaces system. Regional resources include public open spaces managed by the East Bay Regional Park District in Alameda and Contra Costa counties; the National Park Service in Marin, San Francisco and San Mateo counties as well as state park and recreation areas throughout. In addition, thousands of acres of watershed and agricultural lands are preserved as open spaces by water and utility districts or in private ownership. The Bay Trail is a planned recreational corridor that, when complete, will encircle San Francisco and San Pablo Bays with a continuous 400-mile network of bicycling and hiking trails. It will connect the shoreline of all nine Bay Area counties, link 47 cities, and cross the major toll bridges in the region.

  • Supervisor Katy Tang
    NOVEMBER 2015 SUNSET · PARKSIDE SUPERVISOR KATY TANG MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERVISOR Larsen Playground We are excited to share with you that Larsen Playground will be re-opening this month, and we welcome you all to celebrate the return of its jet-inspired play structure with us! Many of those who grew up in San Francisco remember Larsen Park as the “airplane park,” in reference to the decommissioned jet that served as a play structure from 1959 through 1993. Thanks to the Friends of Larsen Playground (including Cammy Blackstone and Nano Visser), former District 4 Supervisor Carmen Chu, neighbors, and generous donors, we are proud to bring back one of San Francisco’s most missed landmarks in our district. We will be unveiling a sculpted replica of the F-8 Crusader jet to pay tribute to the great Larsen jet of the past – along with new playground features and new restrooms. Please bring your family to join us for the Larsen Playground Re-opening on Saturday, November 21, 2015 from 11:00AM-1:00PM at Larsen Playground (Vicente Street between 19th & 20th Avenue). For more information on the project, visit: www.sfrecpark.org/project/larsen-park-jet-playground Affordable Housing Bonus Program (AHBP) As San Francisco faces growing housing demands, it becomes increasingly important to preserve and protect our middle class working families. I recently co-sponsored legislation with Mayor Ed Lee to create a local Affordable Housing Bonus Program (AHBP). This program seeks to incentivize the development of affordable housing units throughout the City, including those that serve middle-income households and families needing 2-bedroom units.

  • Mountain Lake Enhancement Plan Environmental Assessment
    1. Introduction The Mountain Lake Enhancement Plan and Environmental Assessment is a cooperative effort between the Presidio Trust (Trust), the National Park Service (NPS), and the Golden Gate National Parks Association (GGNPA). The Presidio Trust is a wholly- owned federal government corporation whose purposes are to preserve and enhance the Presidio as a national park, while at the same time ensuring that the Presidio becomes financially self-sufficient by 2013. The Trust assumed administrative jurisdiction over 80 percent of the Presidio on July 1, 1998, and the NPS retains jurisdiction over the coastal areas. The Trust is managed by a seven-person Board of Directors, on which a Department of Interior representative serves. NPS, in cooperation with the Trust, provides visitor services and interpretive and educational programs throughout the Presidio. The Trust is lead agency for environmental review and compliance under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). GGNPA is administering project funds and coordinating phase one of the project. The San Francisco International Airport has provided $500,000 to fund the first phase of the Mountain Lake Enhancement Plan under the terms and conditions outlined within the Cooperative Agreement for the Restoration of Mountain Lake, 24 July 1998. The overall goal of the Mountain Lake Enhancement Plan is to improve the health of the lake and adjacent shoreline and terrestrial environments within the 14.25-acre Project Area. This document analyzes three site plan alternatives (Alternatives 1, 2, and 3) and a no action alternative. It is a project-level EA that is based upon the Presidio Trust Act and the 1994 General Management Plan Amendment for the Presidio of San Francisco (GMPA) prepared by the NPS, a planning document that provides guidelines regarding the management, use, and development of the Presidio.
