"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Parks director Ruth Coleman resigned as a result of the scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1589, by Assemblymember Jared Huffman (D-San Rafael), requires that the Department of Parks & Recreation develop an “action plan” for generating revenue, as well as for collecting unpaid user fees at state parks. A lot of people are anticipating, to offer one example, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.dmv.ca.gov/online/elp/elp.htm\">special-interest license plate\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1589 also allows taxpayers to redirect portions of their tax refunds to the California State Parks Protection Fund in exchange for an annual state park day-use access pass. \u003c!--more-->AB 1478, by Bob Bloomenfield (D-Woodland Hills) appropriates $10 million from the fund for park maintenance projects and $10 million as matching funds for private grants for parks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1478 is the more interesting bill for Bob Patrie of the Coe Park Preservation Fund. You may recall that organization wrangled a whopping $1 million of private money to keep their beloved local park open another three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/news/openspaces/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-111261\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-111261\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/05/hdpublicplaces-mod.jpg\" alt=\"hdpublicplaces-mod\" width=\"200\" height=\"46\">\u003c/a>“AB1478 directly impacts our relationship with the DPR,” Patrie writes. He notes that half of the unreported $20.5 million in the State Parks and Recreation Fund will go towards the $1 billion deferred maintenance backlog, “rather than being entirely spent on keeping the threatened 70 parks open – a bad idea. The smell of money in the water.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In late July, the Fund and its sister non-profit, the \u003ca href=\"http://coepark.net/pineridgeassociation/support-coe/pra\">Pine Ridge Association\u003c/a>, issued a \u003ca href=\"http://coepark.net/pineridgeassociation/documents/Summer_2012.pdf\">press release\u003c/a> that more-or-less demanded the state not use the “found” money for purposes other than state parks…a temptation in these budget-strapped times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is no doubt, that many of these funds were collected by the DPR from California citizens visiting and enjoying our beautiful state parks,” writes Daniel McCranie, CPPF treasurer and board member (and also the guy who wrote the biggest check to keep Coe open.) “It is both logical and morally correct that these discovered funds be allocated to the department from which they were collected – the California State Parks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_75071\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/09/1-IMG_1585.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-75071\" title=\"1-IMG_1585\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/09/1-IMG_1585-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">It takes a team to keep a state park like Henry Coe open. Ranger Cameron Bowers and non-profit advocate Bob Patrie (Credit: KQED/Rachael Myrow)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>AB 1478 also prohibits the Department of Parks and Recreation from closing or even proposing the closure of a state park until mid-2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For over a year, we were told that there was no alternative [to park closures],” Blumenfield writes KQED. “We were told park closures were a necessary sacrifice as the state faces tough budget challenges. Californians responded by rallying to raise funds to keep them open. This inspiring accomplishment cannot be soiled by the isolated acts of rogue bureaucrats who concealed over $50 million.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About that figure…could be more, could be less. Over the weekend, the Sacramento Bee’s \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/matt_weiser\">Matthew Weiser\u003c/a> wrote that the figure most everybody is bandying about ($54 million) … \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/2012/09/02/4780548/numbers-on-hidden-funds-in-california.html\">may not be so correct\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About $20 million was in the State Parks and Recreation Fund, as previously mentioned; the rest in “a dedicated pot of money known as the Off Highway Vehicle Trust Fund.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, Finance Department chief deputy director Michael Cohen says his agency is no longer sure how much money was hidden in the OHV fund, and that answer will have to wait on three separate investigations by the attorney general, the state auditor and the Legislature. Those could take the rest of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The OHV fund serves the state’s eight parks dedicated to off-roaders, among other things. The OHV fund has routinely maintained a large balance. Parks officials have said this was to keep money in reserve to acquire land for new off-roading parks. “Yet the department has not opened a new off-roading park in 15 years,” Reiser notes dryly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Off-roading groups are understandably bitter about this state of affairs – not to mention the $34 million – if that’s what it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is that all?” asks John Stewart, a consultant for the California Association of Four Wheel Drive Clubs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Governor’s office hasn’t taken a position yet on either bill, or indicated whether he plans to sign one or both, sometime in September.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Parks director Ruth Coleman resigned as a result of the scandal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1589, by Assemblymember Jared Huffman (D-San Rafael), requires that the Department of Parks & Recreation develop an “action plan” for generating revenue, as well as for collecting unpaid user fees at state parks. A lot of people are anticipating, to offer one example, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.dmv.ca.gov/online/elp/elp.htm\">special-interest license plate\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1589 also allows taxpayers to redirect portions of their tax refunds to the California State Parks Protection Fund in exchange for an annual state park day-use access pass. \u003c!--more-->AB 1478, by Bob Bloomenfield (D-Woodland Hills) appropriates $10 million from the fund for park maintenance projects and $10 million as matching funds for private grants for parks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AB 1478 is the more interesting bill for Bob Patrie of the Coe Park Preservation Fund. You may recall that organization wrangled a whopping $1 million of private money to keep their beloved local park open another three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He notes that half of the unreported $20.5 million in the State Parks and Recreation Fund will go towards the $1 billion deferred maintenance backlog, “rather than being entirely spent on keeping the threatened 70 parks open – a bad idea. The smell of money in the water.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In late July, the Fund and its sister non-profit, the \u003ca href=\"http://coepark.net/pineridgeassociation/support-coe/pra\">Pine Ridge Association\u003c/a>, issued a \u003ca href=\"http://coepark.net/pineridgeassociation/documents/Summer_2012.pdf\">press release\u003c/a> that more-or-less demanded the state not use the “found” money for purposes other than state parks…a temptation in these budget-strapped times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is no doubt, that many of these funds were collected by the DPR from California citizens visiting and enjoying our beautiful state parks,” writes Daniel McCranie, CPPF treasurer and board member (and also the guy who wrote the biggest check to keep Coe open.) “It is both logical and morally correct that these discovered funds be allocated to the department from which they were collected – the California State Parks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_75071\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/09/1-IMG_1585.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-75071\" title=\"1-IMG_1585\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2012/09/1-IMG_1585-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">It takes a team to keep a state park like Henry Coe open. Ranger Cameron Bowers and non-profit advocate Bob Patrie (Credit: KQED/Rachael Myrow)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>AB 1478 also prohibits the Department of Parks and Recreation from closing or even proposing the closure of a state park until mid-2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For over a year, we were told that there was no alternative [to park closures],” Blumenfield writes KQED. “We were told park closures were a necessary sacrifice as the state faces tough budget challenges. Californians responded by rallying to raise funds to keep them open. This inspiring accomplishment cannot be soiled by the isolated acts of rogue bureaucrats who concealed over $50 million.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About that figure…could be more, could be less. Over the weekend, the Sacramento Bee’s \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/matt_weiser\">Matthew Weiser\u003c/a> wrote that the figure most everybody is bandying about ($54 million) … \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/2012/09/02/4780548/numbers-on-hidden-funds-in-california.html\">may not be so correct\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About $20 million was in the State Parks and Recreation Fund, as previously mentioned; the rest in “a dedicated pot of money known as the Off Highway Vehicle Trust Fund.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, Finance Department chief deputy director Michael Cohen says his agency is no longer sure how much money was hidden in the OHV fund, and that answer will have to wait on three separate investigations by the attorney general, the state auditor and the Legislature. Those could take the rest of the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The OHV fund serves the state’s eight parks dedicated to off-roaders, among other things. The OHV fund has routinely maintained a large balance. Parks officials have said this was to keep money in reserve to acquire land for new off-roading parks. “Yet the department has not opened a new off-roading park in 15 years,” Reiser notes dryly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Off-roading groups are understandably bitter about this state of affairs – not to mention the $34 million – if that’s what it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is that all?” asks John Stewart, a consultant for the California Association of Four Wheel Drive Clubs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Governor’s office hasn’t taken a position yet on either bill, or indicated whether he plans to sign one or both, sometime in September.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
