Preservation of Open Space

By Jim Fraser

Candidate for Council Member; Town of Tiburon

This information is provided by the candidate
We are blessed within our community of Tiburon to have approximately 250 acres of open public space. As a resident, I have personally enjoyed the beautiful hills, fields and valleys over the years, and have probably recorded many running and walking miles over many of our public areas. During my time as a Parks and Open Space Commissioner, I advocated and supported an annual " line item budget " for the town's open spaces, and am now pleased to note that the town is in the midst of crafting an Open Space Master Plan. In my role as a Planning Commissioner, I have been a strong advocate of preserving and protecting our existing open space, and have advocated and supported the allowable set asides with new development projects. Access to these spaces is vital too, and in my role as a Planning Commissioner, I have focused on ensuring proper public access.
