We are in the home stretch of applying to the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District's Matching Grant Program. (Say that five times fast!) The due date is April 30th, 2018 and the collaborative effort has been educating and rewarding. If the grant application is approved and we can reach a satisfactory agreement with the seller, the City of Petaluma will take title to the property and will work with our coalition and partners to maintain and protect La Cresta Ridge and Ravine in perpetuity. After fifteen years, this would be a welcome acheivement!
We will continually keep you posted on the progress!
