Continue to work on perserving our open space.
Part of the charm of Martinez is our respect toward our natural habit, surrounding hills and wild life. Our parks are beautiful and keeping them up will benefit our whole community.

We have pretty much set aside as much land as we need to keep Martinez different from Concord or Walnut Creek. We must connect the Open Spaces so that wild life can migrate from area to area as population, food, water, and weather dictate. Those passing lanes could also include walking and bycycle paths for human users and keep the wildlife from suffication starvation and over population while contibuting significately to our environment and lifestyle. Everyone benefits!

Completely agree. Open space can be preserved, but cannot be recreated once developed and paved over. We can do better than sprawl. Need to have good trail connections between neighborhoods and open space. In 2030, I'd like to be able to walk along the ridges, and along the creek and have a natural experience.
