Remember those last few steps?

We’ve taken several of them. There’s just a few more to go...

We’ll see, but we are thinking that this may be the last “update” before what we hope to be a final announcement of Martha’s acquisition. But there’s a bit more distance to cover.

On May 23, 2024, the California Wildlife Conservation Board (WCB) approved a $5.5 million grant to Trust for Public Land for the Martha property purchase! This grant is contingent on finalization of the State Budget in late June.

If, as we hope, the final State Budget includes the WCB funding, as the proposed budget currently does, a very small funding gap of $72,915 will remain. We will know the outcome, with certainty, later this Summer.

In the meantime, we continue to seek funds to limit the Town of Tiburon’s pledged contribution to $1 million, if at all possible. We take our promise to the Town very seriously: Help us raise the final $72,915 now with a gift to TOS. Any excess funds raised will be used for Martha's maintenance and improvements - stewardship.

Just a few more exciting steps to take…will you take them with us?

Our very best,

Tiburon Open Space
