📢 Action Alert: This Thursday's Marin Water Watershed Committee meeting is a key opportunity to show support for advancing both environmental restoration and public access.

Over the past year, District staff have gathered community input through site walks and open houses to develop three potential scenarios that balance restoration, access, and management. At Thursday’s meeting, they’ll present a recommended path forward—and public feedback will help shape the final plan.

Now is the time to speak up for the outcomes you want reflected in the final plan. Join us on Thursday to thank the District for moving this process forward and to demonstrate support for a thoughtful, balanced plan that expands access while protecting the watershed.

Huge thanks to Trail Stewards and County Bicycle Coalition for their leadership.

🚵 Bike the Vote: Voter Registration Closes Soon 🗳️

California uses a “Top-Two” primary system for most state and federal races. That means the June primary is the ultimate filter that decides which two candidates — regardless of party — advance to the November ballot.

For advocates of trails and public lands, this is often the most important moment to speak up. In many districts, the primary is the only time voters have a real choice between different approaches to conservation, recreation, and infrastructure policy.

Your June vote is one of the best opportunity to shape the future of California’s trails and public lands use policies.

📅 Voter Registration Deadlines:
✅ Online: May 18, 2026
✅ By Mail: Postmarked by May 18, 2026
✅ In Person: June 2, 2026

Fact vs. Fiction: The USFS Roadless Rule
🙅‍♀️ MYTH: Roadless Areas are "locked up" and meant to keep people out.
✅ FACT: Roadless Areas provide high-quality, undisturbed public lands experiences. They contain 25k+ miles of recreational trails, including 10k+ miles of trail open to MTBs.

🚳 MYTH: Roadless Areas aren't open to Motos.
✅ FACT: Roadless areas contain 9k+ miles of OHV accessible routes in the western states. That's 33% of all moto accessible miles!

🔥 MYTH: You can’t manage forests for wildfires in a roadless areas
✅ FACT: Commercial logging is prohibited, but stewardship-based forest management and restoration cutting including fuels reduction and active firefighting are explicitly allowed.

The draft EIS and proposed Roadless Rule rescission are expected in the coming weeks. When it drops, public input will matter.

📍 May 18 — Los Angeles
📍 May 27 — Ojai
📍 May 28 — Ventura
