Dear Neighbors,
Thank you to the dozens of Kent Woodlands residents who attended our annual meeting last month. Here's a quick recap of the speakers. If you would like to dig deeper, follow the links below for access to their presentations:
Undergrounding Committee: Thank you to board member Joel Ritch who provided a succinct update on the process and costs involved to underground our electrical lines. This small yet powerful group of volunteers is calling for many more of you that could lend a hand. This is a large undertaking, but as we've recently seen in other parts of Marin, including Tiburon, it’s possible with your help. See article below for information about how to volunteer, and click HERE for the presentation.
Marin Water: It was great to hear from their Water Efficiency Manager, Carrie Pollard, who let us know that Marin Water offers a complimentary on-site visit to help assess water savings opportunities. She also shared lots of information about our neighborhood's water consumption and ways we can each save money and water, especially given inevitable future droughts. See Carrie's presentation HERE.
Wildfire Resilience Design Framework: Thanks to board member Ghigo DiTomasso, who invited Studio VARA to present the many ways they are designing new homes and substantial remodels to stand up against the threat of fire. Presentation available HERE.
Marin County Sheriff's Office: Deputy Jerry Niess provided a neighborhood update and noted concerns about parking, speeding, and rising incidents of fraud. We also learned that our other regular Deputy, Doug Allen, is transitioning out of the neighborhood and will be replaced by other deputies. Note that for non-emergency issues, members should contact the Sheriff's office 415-479-2311.
Sincerely,
Jeff Leh, President
