Town hall meeting on saving state parks

A town hall meeting with the theme, "Working Together to Keep our State Parks Open," will be held Tuesday in San Rafael.

Assemblymember Jared Huffman, D-San Rafael, Marin Community Foundation president and CEO Dr. Thomas Peters and the Marin Open Parks Coalition will host the event.

"The town hall (meeting) is an opportunity to brainstorm on ways to keep our treasured state parks open in both the short and long term," said Huffman.

The meeting will be primarily focused on local solutions for state parks in Sonoma and Marin counties.

The Petaluma Adobe State Historic Park is one of 70 parks in the state system targeted for closure next summer because of the state's budget woes.

Tuesday's meeting will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Osher Marin Jewish Community Center,

200 N. San Pedro Road, San Rafael.
