• Bolinas parks tax measure draws solid support (marinij.com) — Bolinas voters are strongly backing Measure L, which would double the annual parcel tax for local parks from $75 to $150 and could adjust slightly each year. If the two-thirds threshold is met, the Firehouse Community Park Agency will gain about $210,000 annually for upgrades and operations at Mesa Park and Downtown Park over the next four years.
