History
The Sonoma-Marin office officially opened its doors in 1995. However,
much of Marin, including Mt. Tamalpais, Samuel P. Taylor Park, Stinson
Beach, the Northridge, Tomales Bay beaches, and Angel Island, was preserved
due to the tireless efforts of many Marin conservation groups working
in concert with Greenbelt Alliance.
Sonoma County, in particular, is unique in that every city in Sonoma
except Cloverdale now has sprawl-busting Urban Growth Boundaries (UGBs),
setting an example for the Bay Area and beyond. Greenbelt Alliance has
been focusing its attention on helping citizens mobilize to preserve open
space and agriculture by supporting UGBs and encouraging efficient and
equitable land use within their boundaries.
