Protect Marin County’s parks & open spaces – yes on a

By: DogTrekker Staff

A vibrant dog park bathed in sunlight features abundant greenery with mature trees, offering ample shade for leisurely outdoor activities. In the distance is a well-equipped playground that presents an additional activity area. An inviting picnic table spreads out nearby, ideal for enjoying meals al fresco or taking relaxing breaks from play. A neatly-placed trash bin aids in maintaining the park's cleanliness for everyone's enjoyment. Dominating the scene is a generously wide dirt path gracefully curving through the expanse of grass, promising exploratory walks and lively fetch games.

Measure A’s quarter-cent sales tax supports parks, open space, and agricultural lands across Marin. These funds can’t be used for any other purpose. The existing Measure A has not only supported Marin County Parks facilities and programs but also become an important funding resource for city and town parks and family farms that contribute to Marin’s food supply.

In 2012, DogTrekker.com supported Parks Measure A and voters approved a one-quarter of one percent sales tax (County Ordinance 3586) to support parks, open space, and agricultural lands across Marin. This is a Measure A Extension that we need to say YES to.

Here is more information on the Measure A Extension and a look at all of the projects that the original Measure A funded. Vote yes and continue to enjoy our incredible park system with your pup.
