San Francisco Bay Trail Progress in Richmond Since October 2011 Adoption of Bicycle Master Plan and Pedestrian Plan SAN FRANCISCO BAY TRAIL PROGRESS IN RICHMOND SINCE OCTOBER 2011 ADOPTION OF BICYCLE MASTER PLAN AND PEDESTRIAN PLAN Introduction: This report by TRAC, the Trails for Richmond Action Committee, summarizes new and improved Bay Trail sections completed or ready to advertise for bids since adoption of the City of Richmond’s Bicycle Master Plan and Pedestrian Plan in October 2011. This includes four gap closure projects plus three projects renovating old, deteriorated sections of the Bay Trail along the southern shoreline. Richmond now has over 32 miles of Bay Trail built -- more than any other city on this planned 500-mile hiking and biking route encircling San Francisco and San Pablo Bays. The Bicycle and Pedestrian plans with General Plan 2030 provide the foundation needed to support closure of the ten miles of gaps remaining in the planned Bay Trail route. A map of Richmond’s completed and planned Bay Trail is shown on the final page of this report. Renovation of South 51st Street Bay Trail Spur: Located just off the Bayview Ave. exit from I-580, this 250-yard trail follows the tidal channel at the mouth of Baxter Creek to reach Stege Marsh and McLaughlin Eastshore State Park section of Bay Trail connecting Marina Bay with Point Isabel Regional Shoreline. In late 2011, the City’s Parks & Landscaping Dept. carried out a major renovation of this Bay Trail spur at the end of South 51st St. providing instant access to Bay vistas, rich tidal wetlands and bird watching. This renovation included new Bay Trail signs, removal of noxious weeds and seeding with a colorful mix of wildflowers. Renovation of Bay Trail Between Shimada Park and Meeker Slough Bridge: In late 2011, the City’s former Redevelopment Agency rebuilt and widened ! mile of Bay Trail between Meeker Slough bridge and Shimada Park while adding new LED lighting, landscape irrigation and Bay Trail signs. This old, narrow and deteriorated section of trail was built in the 1980s predating adoption of the San Francisco Bay Trail Plan. The City’s Parks & Landscaping Dept. followed up with a multi-phase program of landscape renovation. Shipyard 3 Trail: Over 150 people turned out to celebrate opening of this two-mile section of Bay Trail on May 26, 2012 as a showcase for the City and Port of Richmond, as well as for the Rosie the Riveter/WWII Home Front National Historical Park. Following a proposal by TRAC, this project had been in the works for over a decade of feasibility, planning and design studies using grant funds secured by TRAC. Wildcat Marsh Trail: In Sept. 2012, East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) celebrated completion of the 0.83-mile Wildcat Marsh Trail connecting the Landfill Loop Trail with the Bay Trail along the Richmond Parkway via Wildcat Creek Regional Trail. West County Wastewater District made this possible by providing land for the trail which EBRPD built with Measure CC & State Proposition 84 funds. Meeker Slough Bay Trail Lighting Restoration: In 2103, the Parks & Landscaping Dept. installed new LED lighting bollards and landscaping along the 0.6-mile Bay Trail section between Marina Bay tennis courts and Meeker Slough bridge, replacing an old lighting system that had been in disrepair and non- operational for many years. Bay Trail Gap Closure Shipyard 3 Trail to Dornan Drive: The City completed construction plans in 2013 to close these two gaps in the Bay Trail. Funding was secured for construction when the City Council appropriated $235,000 of Cosco Busan oil spill damage funds to supplement $450,000 resulting from grant applications prepared by TRAC. One section opens a scenic new stretch of shoreline linking Brickyard Cove Road with the Shipyard 3 Trail. The other extends from the western side of Brickyard Landing condos to Dornan Drive near Ferry Point. The City’s contractor, W.R. Forde, plans to finish construction by January 14. Plunge Bay Trail Gap Closure: The City has completed construction plans and specifications for this Bay Trail section along Garrard Blvd. between Cutting Blvd. and the Ferry Point tunnel. A designated Focus Area in the Bicycle Master Plan, this is the central hub for Richmond’s Bay Trail where spokes radiate north and south, as well as to the Shipyard 3 Trail and the Ferry Point Loop encircling Miller/Knox Regional Shoreline. Construction bids are expected to be advertised this month thanks to the City Council appropriating $254,000 of Cosco Busan oil spill damage funds to augment $87,000 of grant awards.

  • Pt. Isabel-Stege Area
    Tales of the Bay Shore -- Pt. Isabel-Stege area Geology: The “bones” of the shoreline from Albany to Richmond are a sliver of ancient, alien sea floor, caught on the edge of North America as it overrode the Pacific. Fleming Point (site of today’s racetrack), Albany Hill, Pt. Isabel, Brooks Island, scattered hillocks inland, the hills at Pt Richmond, and the hills across the San Pablo Strait (spanned by the Richmond Bridge) all are part of this Novato Terrane. Erosion and uplift eventually left their hard rock as hilltops in a valley. Still later – only about 5000 years ago -- rising seas from the melting glaciers of our last Ice Age flooded the valley, forming today’s San Francisco Bay. The “alien” hilltops became islands, peninsulas linked to shore by marsh, or isolated dome-like “turtlebacks.” Left: Portion of 1911 map of SF Bay showing many Native American sites near Pt. Isabel and Stege. Right: 1853 U.S. Coastal Survey map showing N. end of Albany Hill, Cerrito Creek, Pt. Isabel, and marshes/ to North. Native Americans: Native Americans would have watched the slow rise of today’s Bay. When Europeans reached North America, the East Bay was the home of Huchiun Ohlone peoples. Living in groups generally of fewer than 100 people, they moved seasonally amid rich and varied resources, gathering, hunting, fishing, and encouraging useful plants with pruning and burning. They made reed boats, baskets, nets, traps, mortars, and a wide variety of implements and decorations. Along the shellfish-rich shoreline they gradually built up substantial hills of debris – shell mounds -- that kept them above floods and served as multipurpose homesites, burial sites, refuse dumps, and more.

  • Chapter 4.9 Land Use and Planning
    Section 4.9 Land Use and Planning 4.9 LAND USE AND PLANNING 4.9.1 Introduction This section evaluates the potential land use and planning impacts of development under the 2014 LRDP. The planned 2014 LRDP land uses are described and assessed for potential conflicts with existing RBC site and surrounding land uses and land use plans. Public and agency NOP comments related to land use and planning are summarized below: The EIR should consider proposed new building heights and massing in terms of compatibility with surrounding uses. The EIR should consider 2014 LRDP compatibility with the Eastshore State Park General Plan goals and policies. The 2014 LRDP should conform to local zoning and approved local land use policies to the maximum extent feasible. These comments are considered in the analysis below. 4.9.2 Environmental Setting Project Site The approximately 134-acre RBC site is in the City of Richmond, approximately 5 miles northwest of the UC Berkeley campus and the LBNL site in Berkeley (see Figure 3-1). The City of Richmond is in Contra Costa County. The RBC site is bounded on the west by a PG&E service station, on the northwest by Regatta Boulevard, on the northeast by Meade Street, on the east by South 46th Street, and on the south by the San Francisco Bay. I-580 runs parallel to Meade Street along the northeastern boundary of the RBC site. Existing On-Site Land Uses The RBC site has been the location of a variety of industrial enterprises dating back to the mid- 19th century.

  • Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline Closed Oct. 27 for Trail Repair
    > East Bay Regional Park District | Embrace Life! > About Us > News > Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline Closed Oct. 27 for Trail Repair News Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline Closed Oct. 27 for Trail Repair By EBRPD Public Affairs October 9, 2015 The East Bay Regional Park District will CLOSE Pt. Isabel Regional Shoreline from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27, for slurry-seal repair work on the paved trails. No entry into the park will be allowed from either the Isabel Street side or the Rydin Road side. The Marina Bay-to-Point Isabel Trail from the bridge at Meeker Slough to the end of Rydin Road will be closed; there will be no access to North Point Isabel. The trail from the end of Central Avenue to Isabel Street will also be closed. In addition, Mudpuppy’s Dog Wash and the Sit and Stay Café will be closed for the day. The closure is to allow work crews to slurry seal the asphalt, which will help smooth out and protect the trail and reduce the need for replacement. The material is wet, very sticky, smelly and difficult to remove. We do not want people or dogs on it until it is completely dry. The project will take all day, including drying time. North Point Isabel trails will not be slurry sealed. That area will be closed because the trails that lead to it are being slurry sealed and there will not be any way to access it. The asphalt there needs replacement, which is a bigger job and will be done at another time.

  • California Clapper Rail ( Rallus Longirostris Obsoletus ) TE-807078-10
    2009 Annual Report: California Clapper Rail ( Rallus longirostris obsoletus ) TE-807078-10 Submitted to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Sacramento December 16, 2009 Submitted by PRBO Conservation Science Leonard Liu 1, Julian Wood 1, and Mark Herzog 1 1PRBO Conservation Science, 3820 Cypress Drive #11, Petaluma, CA 94954 Contact: [email protected] Introduction The California Clapper Rail ( Rallus longirostris obsoletus ) is one of the most endangered species in California. The species is dependent on tidal wetlands, which have decreased over 75% from the historical extent in San Francisco Bay. A complete survey of its population and distribution within the San Francisco Bay Estuary was begun in 2005. In 2009, PRBO Conservation Science (PRBO) completed the fifth year of field work designed to provide an Estuary-wide abundance estimate and examine the temporal and spatial patterns in California Clapper Rail populations. Field work was performed in collaboration with partners conducting call-count surveys at complementary wetlands (Avocet Research Associates [ARA], California Department of Fish and Game, California Coastal Conservancy’s Invasive Spartina Project [ISP], and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service). This report details PRBO’s California Clapper Rail surveys in 2009 under U.S. Fish and Wildlife service permit TE-807078-10. A more detailed report synthesizing 2009 and 2010 survey results from PRBO and its partners is forthcoming. Methods Call-count surveys were initiated January 15 and continued until May 6. All sites (Table 1) were surveyed 3 times by experienced permitted biologists using a point transect method, with 10 minutes per listening station. Listening stations primarily were located at marsh edges, levees bordering and within marshes, boardwalks, boat-accessible channels within the marsh, and in the case of 6 marshes in the North Bay, foot access within the marsh.
