Our hearts go out to the friends and family of part time West Marin resident, Kenneth Kidd, who lost his life when he was caught in an avalanche at the Palisades in Tahoe.

"I'm so sad, we've been neighbors for 20 years, he's always been a wonderful neighbor, I'm devastated it happened," said Susan Rowsell.

A public hearing is set for 6 p.m. Wednesday (today) at Buck Hall, at the Lodge at Marconi at 18500 Highway 1 in Marshall around the draft 10-year effort to restore forestland and prevent wildfires in Tomales Bay State Park.

Park officials say the use of prescribed burns, tree cutting and herbicides will help offset the negative effects of decades of fire suppression and climate change. Environmental activists, however, argue that the work will disrupt the habitat for sensitive and endangered wildlife.

If you have thoughts, opinions and comments about short term rentals (STRs) in West Marin, now is the time to get involved. You can read more about the issue in the latest Point Reyes Light (link below).

For those who wish to have no STR regulations, more info here:
https://www.westmarinaccesscoa...

For those looking for community driven regulations, more info here:

"Hello Neighbors,

We have our last chance this week to take a stand for our community! We are rallying folks to make a sign for the zoom meeting with Dennis Rodoni tomorrow at 6pm. Will you please join us? Make a sign that says "Homes Not Hotels" and make it visible. If Rodoni logs onto zoom and sees hundreds of these signs this would doubtless make an impact.

This is Dennis's last meeting with the community to get an understanding of what we want. The bottom line is we have a housing CRISIS on our hands and our representatives have a responsibility to regulate a market which is spiraling out of control. If left up to the market, Airbnb and the like will continue to drive up the cost and diminish the stock of housing. A double whammy that will ultimately undermine the fabric of this community. If this is something you care about, now is the time to act!

1) Dennis Rodoni & the CDA’s Listening Session on Zoom on Monday the 8th from 6-8pm (you must pre-register here:)

Welcome! You are invited to join a meeting: Short Term Rentals - Community Listening Session. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the meeting. https://us06web.zoom.us/meetin...

2) Attend the Board of Supervisor’s Special Session (in-person or on Zoom) on Thursday the 11th at the Civic Center at
5pm. This is where the BOS will discuss the ordinance after public comment. It will give you an opportunity to hear the perspectives from both CDA (Community Development Agency) and the five Sup[erviosors. Both West Marin Residents for Housing and the PRVA are organizing carpools to go to this meeting. Here are the Zoom instructions, in case you need them: https://www.marincounty.org/-/...
