Sleepy Hollow Homeowners Association May 3, 2013 Board of Supervisors of Marin County 3501 Civil Center Drive San Rafael, CA 94903-4157 Re: Stream Conservation Area (SCA) Proposed Amendments to the Development Code Honorable Members of the Board of Supervisors: INTRODUCTION The Sleepy Hollow Homes Association (SHHA) objects to the proposed changes to Chapters 22.33 (Stream Protection) and 22.63 (Stream Conservation Area Permit) as they would apply to the residents of the unincorporated portion of San Anselmo known as Sleepy Hollow. We ask that the County exempt and/or delay implementation of any changes to Chapters 22.33 and 22.63 as to the city-centered corridor streams, including Sleepy Hollow. The SHHA supports implementation of the proposed amendments to the San Geronimo Valley, to protect wildlife habitat in streams where Coho Salmon currently exist. The SHHA supports regulations to ensure the health and survival of the species in these areas. The SHHA recognizes the urgency of this matter to the San Geronimo Valley, both for the survival of the endangered and declining Coho population and for the property rights of the affected residents who are currently subject to a building moratorium.

  • Ethnohistory and Ethnogeography of the Coast Miwok and Their Neighbors, 1783-1840
    ETHNOHISTORY AND ETHNOGEOGRAPHY OF THE COAST MIWOK AND THEIR NEIGHBORS, 1783-1840 by Randall Milliken Technical Paper presented to: National Park Service, Golden Gate NRA Cultural Resources and Museum Management Division Building 101, Fort Mason San Francisco, California Prepared by: Archaeological/Historical Consultants 609 Aileen Street Oakland, California 94609 June 2009 MANAGEMENT SUMMARY This report documents the locations of Spanish-contact period Coast Miwok regional and local communities in lands of present Marin and Sonoma counties, California. Furthermore, it documents previously unavailable information about those Coast Miwok communities as they struggled to survive and reform themselves within the context of the Franciscan missions between 1783 and 1840. Supplementary information is provided about neighboring Southern Pomo-speaking communities to the north during the same time period. The staff of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) commissioned this study of the early native people of the Marin Peninsula upon recommendation from the report’s author. He had found that he was amassing a large amount of new information about the early Coast Miwoks at Mission Dolores in San Francisco while he was conducting a GGNRA-funded study of the Ramaytush Ohlone-speaking peoples of the San Francisco Peninsula. The original scope of work for this study called for the analysis and synthesis of sources identifying the Coast Miwok tribal communities that inhabited GGNRA parklands in Marin County prior to Spanish colonization. In addition, it asked for the documentation of cultural ties between those earlier native people and the members of the present-day community of Coast Miwok. The geographic area studied here reaches far to the north of GGNRA lands on the Marin Peninsula to encompass all lands inhabited by Coast Miwoks, as well as lands inhabited by Pomos who intermarried with them at Mission San Rafael.

  • Sea Level Rise Adaptation Report Marin Ocean Coast
    Marin Ocean Coast Sea Level Rise Adaptation Report Marin County Community Development Agency February 2018 Collaboration: Sea-Level Marin Adaptation Response Team Marin County Community Development Agency February 2018 | Marin County, CA | marinslr.org A Call to Action for West Marin Residents West Marin is abundant with natural resources that are integral to its cultural identify as demonstrated by the long heritage of open space preservation and appreciation. Federal, state and local parklands abutting the Pacific Ocean provide a retreat from the hustle and bustle of Bay Area living. Coastal bluffs, beaches, wetlands, and more draw millions of international visitors for surfing, birding, kayaking, hiking, picnicking and more. Protected ranchlands are stewarded by multi-generation family farming operations which feed the region with milk, cheese, yogurt, butter, ice- cream and other products. Nestled within these vast swaths of open space are small but mighty communities that serve as both visitor hubs and homes to residents who cherish and value the unique sense of place. Climate change presents unprecedented threats to West Marin. Wetlands and beaches could be drowned with rising waters, and native plants and animal populations could plummet from changes in temperature and precipitation, ocean acidification, invasive species, and more. Coastal flooding and erosion threaten homes, roads, and utilities that are critical to the long- term sustainability of West Marin. Spearheaded by the Marin County Community Development Agency in 2014, Collaboration: Sea Level Rise Adaptation Response Team (C-SMART) is a partnership based community planning approach to solve some of these challenges. The Marin Ocean Coast Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment analyzed the vulnerabilities of natural and built assets from near- to long-term combined sea level rise and storm scenarios.

The annual flow regime developed considers individual species life stage needs. Approximately 37% of the average annual runoff is identified as being needed for spawning and rearing purposes.

She was my second celebrity encounter since moving back to Northern California last year, the first being a certain celebrity chef cutting me off on Highway 12. I later learned that Ms. Hedren’s appearance is an annual tradition, and that some of the money she makes from it goes to support her extensive charity work. Though I’ve never seen the film in its entirety, I learned the story through multiple trips to the restaurant and the Saint Teresa of Avila Church in Bodega. Even I, who spent the majority of my life in Middle Tennessee, feel local pride knowing these beautiful places are immortalized in such a loved and influential film.
