C<strong>an</strong> ONE project be a catalyst for m<strong>an</strong>y existing local <strong>an</strong>d regional<br />
problems, such as me<strong>an</strong>ingful engagement with S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay?<br />
At nearly three miles in length, the Saltworks’ Bayside Park would become one of the largest waterfront parks on S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay.<br />
As summer comes to a close, m<strong>an</strong>y of us are spending more time<br />
outdoors. And what better place in the State of California th<strong>an</strong><br />
S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay.<br />
� e S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay is a national treasure — a treasure that<br />
should not only be protected but celebrated <strong>an</strong>d appreciated.<br />
Did you know that Redwood City has more linear shoreline th<strong>an</strong><br />
<strong>an</strong>y other city in S<strong>an</strong> Mateo County? But because of m<strong>an</strong>-made<br />
divides, such as Highway 101, places to directly engage the Bay in<br />
Redwood City (<strong>an</strong>d for the rest of the region for that matter) are<br />
almost non-existent. And that really is too bad.<br />
� e Saltworks in Redwood City provides <strong>an</strong> opportunity to<br />
convert a privately-owned industrial saltmaking site into l<strong>an</strong>d that<br />
is publicly accessible on S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay.<br />
Not only does the Saltworks proposal include the single-largest<br />
privately funded restoration program in the history of S<strong>an</strong><br />

<strong>The</strong> Answer is YES.<br />
Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay by restoring hundreds of acres into tidal marsh<br />
habitat, it includes a nearly three-mile ‘Bayside Park’ right at the<br />
edge of S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay. � is Bayside Park would connect a<br />
critical gap in the S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay Trail.<br />
� is Bayside Park would become one of the largest waterfront<br />
parks on S<strong>an</strong> Fr<strong>an</strong>cisco Bay <strong>an</strong>d one of the largest parks in<br />
Redwood City. � e park would be home to a variety of recreational<br />
<strong>an</strong>d educational amenities where people from all over the region<br />
would come to embrace the Bay <strong>an</strong>d learn more about what makes<br />
the Bay a national treasure.<br />
� e Saltworks site, because of its scale <strong>an</strong>d location, alone c<strong>an</strong><br />
satisfy this import<strong>an</strong>t regional need.<br />
But don’t take our word for it. See for yourself. Examine the<br />
facts. Ask for a thorough evaluation of our proposal <strong>an</strong>d the<br />
opportunities — all of the opportunities — presented by the<br />
Saltworks site.<br />
