What do you love most about Marin today?

As native resident, born and raised here, we need to improve the quality of life here. Biggest issue is the housing mandate and we need to reclaim our local control. Restore our local zoning and have smart growth through housing needs and zoning for people who want to live above businesses or build ADU’s. Keep private equity firms out by selling to actual people who need a place to live. Prioritize community over developers rather than allowing developers to dictate growth. Keep marin safe- keep county speed limit at 55 MPH and double the fines for violations.

Create and ensure adequate affordable housing for seniors and lower income adults in the county, so those who qualify can afford to pay rent or for housing loan and live in the county.

A county with a thriving 4-year health-focused university who can be at the forefront of teaching the next generation of leaders and workers in various health spaces.

Transportation from train depot in downtown San Rafael to Dominican University, which would encourage many, many more travelers to use the train. (DUC employs many who live in Novato, Sonoma County.

The protected space, the shared goal to make affordable housing but seek to define that housing according to environmental and aesthetics concern More fairs, town halls, and celebrations across communities. So that each pocket or small town in our county hosts a gathering for cross communication and neighborhood activities

The amount of open space and open viewable area. The fact that our cities are not vertically built/few call buildings, and no building on the tops of hillsides or mountains.

Two SAFETY ideas for Manzanita Park & Ride 1. Repair the pedestrian crossing signal at the car entrance to Manzanita Park & Ride. When I got off the Marin airporter in the dark I had to make a scary "run for it" across the street to get to the pedestrian/bike path headed for Tam Valley. I've discussed this with Mill Valley Public Works and they confirmed this is in your jurisdiction. 2. Install a REAL TIME camera so we know when Manzanita Park & Ride is actually flooded and when it is not. The only nearby real time gage is at Coyote Creek. I've discussed this with Michelle Jennings at Alert Marin if you'd like to know more. I am at 415-381-2464 (not a cell) Thank you and PLEASE take these requests SERIOUSLY

Be pragmatic about service delivery and the plan's deliverables. Avoid overpromising. The plan should be grounded in the resources the County realistically has—funding, staffing and talent, and time.

Marin County supervisors should appoint a committee of 8-10 citizens with financial and economic qualifications to analyze the future effects on the county's budget and its ability to provide services due to the employee pension program and its liabilities. The committee should make recommendations to mitigate any adverse effects.

Re-commit to strengthen support for productive agriculture through expanding permitted uses on ag land in return for increased ag investment on the parcels

I love how accesible the national parks and outdoors space is to the public!

Make it more affordable by adding more fast and rail transit option. Coming to work in the mornings from Novato is a nightmare. We live and work in Marin. Don't push us out. More BRT and Rails, fewer cars and traffic jams. We are the working group and working age, and not all of us are 6o years old and older. We are the hope and future of Marin. Don't push us out.

Our dedication to preserving open space accessible to all.

Quiet beaches and trails during weekdays. Rich environment including redwood forests, Tomales Bay, beaches. Clear air and quiet in West Marin.

That we protect open space and natural beauty. People come from all over for our views, and I hope we never change that about Marin.

Our nature, our open spaces and urban/suburban parks are our treasure.

Super El Niño is on the way. We need cooling centers for seniors and disabled, and basically everyone, on the very hottest days. I would start planning for that right now. Because it’s gonna hit with a vengeance in 2027.
