POST is a private, non-profit land trust that protects local land in order to preserve it as parks and open space. When POST acquires a piece of land, the organization’s goal is to transfer it to an entity who can manage it in perpetuity, often to public agencies like the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District.
Prior to the meeting, additional information and the agenda will be posted to the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District’s Web site at http://www.openspace.org.
