The Burnham Strip Committee (BSC) of MidCoast Park Lands (MPL) in El Granada is busy again! We’re up and running to preserve as parkland the open space and ocean views El Granada is blessed with and to save the historic 1906 community design by Daniel Burnham.
Continuing a 15 year effort by concerned local citizens, the Burnham Strip Committee is seeking methods and means to preserve the community open space at the front of El Granada, the oceanside view corridor so beloved by locals and visitors alike. The Committee believes the time for a serious effort to save The Strip is now, because a central portion of the property has come on the market. An 8/10 acre parcel in the middle of the Strip is available for purchase and preservation and MPL’s Burnham Strip Committee is reaching out to the community to preserve this priceless public resource.
The “Burnham Strip” is the still mostly open space between Highway 1 and the developed portions of El Granada. The BSC’s goal is to preserve the views afforded by the Strip and to assure preservation of this key open space for our children and posterity. Ultimately the BSC wants to see the entire Strip as permanently protected open space/ parkland under public management.
The Burnham Strip Committee is actively seeking additional volunteers, public participation, donations, pledges, grants, and ideas to help preserve this vital public open space. Please contact BSC Chair Leni Schultz at 650-712-8368 or [url=http://www.SAVETHESTRIP.org]http://www.SAVETHESTRIP.org[/url] for information and to help
Ms. Schultz,
You appropriately identify that you are the “Chair” of the BSC.
Who else is on the “Committee?”
Is there a reason that the savethestrip.org website does not list other directors, officers or committee members?
Same with http://www.mpl.sanmateo.org/ Why no information on who/where donations are going to?
Thanks for more information.
