Video: The Story of How Marin Was Ruined

Citizen Marin has launched a new video describing the slow decline of Marin based on bad planning decisions and to drive awareness of the Larkspur Station Area Plan.

In December I published an article "The Story of How Marin Was Ruined". It describes the slow but gradual demise of the quality of life in Marin after cumulative planning decisions - such as the grandiose plans for Larkspur where 920 units equivalent to 5 Win Cups, and a hotel, and 177,000 square feet of additional retail are planned.

Nearby Sunnyvale is marked for even more significant growth - 4,412 additional housing units along El Camino as the council has designated the area a "Priority Development Area" where high density housing should be concentrated.

This article has now be turned into a video by Citizen Marin complete with narrated voiceover and infographics.
