Agricultural commissioner Joe Divini presented the annual, state‑mandated crop and livestock totals and introduced a special companion section that encourages buying local through farmers markets, farm stands and direct sales. Allison Klein, Agricultural Weights and Measures inspector, supplied commodity details: poultry remained the top commodity by value at about $21.9 million; organic milk totaled about $21.6 million; cattle and calves rose to $16.1 million; aquaculture increased to $6.4 million; and field crops and wine grapes showed variances tied to yields and business choices.

The county commissioned an economic impact study from Agricultural Impact Associates. The consultants — Dr. Fernando de Paulis and Dr. Jeff Langholz — presented a broader accounting that adds local processing, supplier spending and induced household spending. Their analysis produced a total economic output estimate of about $257.2 million for 2023, comprising roughly $89 million in on‑farm production, $101 million in local processing (cheese and dairy processing were highlighted) and about $66 million in indirect and induced multiplier effects. The study estimated agriculture supported roughly 1,081 jobs countywide (about 750 direct jobs plus 331 jobs from multiplier effects).

Dr. Langholz also presented preliminary estimates for the value of ecosystem services provided by Marin’s working lands — services such as open space, scenic value, firebreaks, water filtration, wildlife habitat and carbon sequestration. Those services were broadly valued in the report between $464 million and $2.08 billion annually; the authors said the range is wide and requires further study to refine.

Speakers from the agricultural community and land‑conservation partners praised the report. Andy Najjaris, CEO of the Agricultural Institute of Marin, emphasized local market programs that accept CalFresh and match benefits at farmers markets, noting nearly $500,000 in EBT/market match benefits and nearly 900,000 servings of fresh produce in the combined Marin/Southern Sonoma area for recent reporting. Lily Verdone of Marin Agricultural Land Trust said the analysis reinforces the benefits of preserving working lands and the layered public values those lands deliver.

Board members and staff discussed resilience, agritourism and the vulnerability of small, land‑rich but cash‑poor operations. Commissioners and presenters said agritourism and direct‑to‑consumer sales are promising revenue streams but require additional study to measure impacts precisely. The report’s authors said they used national county multipliers (IMPLAN) to estimate indirect and induced effects and noted those multipliers are updated annually.

Action: The board accepted the Crop and Livestock Report and the economic contributions analysis at the July 8 meeting. The motion to accept the report was made on the record and the roll call vote was recorded as aye by Supervisors Lukin, Colbert, Rodoni and President Sackett; Supervisor Moulton Peters also voted in favor. The acceptance will allow county distribution of the report and a companion fold‑out guide that lists local producers and market links.

Why it matters: The annual crop and livestock report is the formal farmgate accounting required by state guidelines. The companion economic analysis highlights the larger role of agriculture in county jobs, local processing and ecosystem services, providing a baseline for future policy, marketing and land‑conservation decisions. The board asked staff to broaden public distribution of the reports and to explore agritourism and other supports for small producers.

The county will publish a fold‑out “Marin Fresh” companion map and distribute the report to local partners and media; staff and partners signaled interest in further analysis of agritourism and shared approaches to strengthen producer market channels.","Marin County’s 2024 Crop and Livestock Report tallied $83.8 million in farmgate production, and a companion economic study estimated total agricultural contribution — including processing and multiplier effects — at about $257.2 million for 2023.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6511245,"Marin County Board adopts Plastic Free July resolution after presentations from interns and Zero Waste Marin",1875,425000,2300000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5333120-e7f4edbb8fd08d65bae3900159cce4da&start=425&end=2300","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5333120-e7f4edbb8fd08d65bae3900159cce4da/thumbnail_425000.jpg","/articles/6511245/Marin-County/California/Marin-County-Board-adopts-Plastic-Free-July-resolution-after-presentations-from-interns-and-Zero-Waste-Marin","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6511245-0bda3466d35758c55c04abb4d0906e0a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770424223&Signature=gyMpbw60chvmcrqW4DO5PAdHN6~4bzeOqfLByS0-8LslY14UK4HrQywHguHi5cPxFKUbHHsPFJG8909IFBhnLZ7sbPJxyxFNUI2g9M4Sk38JZ0sa-Yyj~KSA3xm8DRFNX0N0gWiG-gBUgu8I686QyBaf6Pv41Y6hWfi7~eIjF6XPyC129s9~067IlxDafBAfYjG~KUPgYs64Hk8Ic~GXNT3Li9hstv~9wmVpkiqX1jZOXXH6T0to5aspGW3Jro6RwaVBmmh6WRV95d~-QcWR43iHC5Wrsr05axeNZRhpBJXILXYO34VzKveRrLaa-oexcVEsxjJpgV4Z6ET7Lh3Zpg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Marin County Board of Supervisors on July 8 adopted a resolution recognizing Plastic Free July and urging residents to reduce single‑use plastics, following presentations from county interns and representatives of Zero Waste Marin and related local initiatives.

The presentations emphasized local waste trends and practical steps residents can take. An intern in Supervisor Sackett’s office, Bridal Pamina, outlined county waste statistics and everyday swaps; Kimberly Scheible, executive director of Zero Waste Marin, described the organization’s role in coordinating county jurisdictions and promoting source reduction. County staff introduced Julie Bryant as the new county waste management program manager and described updated, clearly labeled waste‑sorting stations installed across the Civic Center and at the Marin County Fair.

The presentations gave local context. Pamina said county disposal rose modestly between 2022 and 2023 and described the Plastic Free July challenge as a worldwide campaign encouraging consumers to reduce single‑use plastic by choosing reusable alternatives. Zero Waste Marin’s Scheible highlighted that only a small share of global plastic has been recycled historically and cited county and state waste characterization studies showing plastic still makes up a measurable portion of landfill materials. Scheible urged residents to use reusables, buy in bulk, and check recycling rules with local haulers.

A range of community groups offered public comment in support of the resolution. Madeline Nieto Hope, project coordinator for Cleaner California Coast, described regional public‑education and cleanup work across Marin, Sonoma and Mendocino counties and urged renewed cooperation on reuse infrastructure and SB 1383 compliance. Holly Eberhard of the Environmental Action Committee of West Marin and Scott Tai of Surfrider Foundation also spoke in favor of the resolution and local regulatory steps to reduce plastic at its source.

Board members thanked presenters and community partners and discussed local implementation. Supervisor Rodoni noted the county’s 2023 reusable foodware ordinance and said he intends to reconvene staff and partner organizations “later in the summer” to reimagine and restart program outreach to businesses that remain unclear about compliance. Several supervisors praised the Civic Center and fair waste‑sorting signage and the county’s employee training and reusable lunch kits.

The vote: Supervisor Rodoni moved to adopt the resolution; Supervisor Lukin seconded. On a roll call vote the board recorded unanimous approval (Supervisor Lukin — aye; Supervisor Colbert — aye; Supervisor Rodoni — aye; President Sackett — aye; Supervisor Moulton Peters — aye). The board invited presenters and community partners to a group photograph after the vote. The board will continue outreach and program development, including workshops, waste audits and education tied to the county’s climate and waste goals.

Why it matters: The resolution formalizes county support for a global public awareness campaign and reinforces implementation of state law and local rules aimed at reducing organic waste and single‑use plastics. The county emphasized education and operational changes — signage, staff training and a new waste manager — as the immediate steps to help residents and businesses meet state requirements and local climate targets.

The board also directed continuing outreach to businesses and a refreshed approach to the reusable foodware ordinance to increase compliance and clarity for merchants and food vendors.","The Marin County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to adopt a Plastic Free July resolution after presentations from county interns and Zero Waste Marin outlining local waste statistics, reuse options and county initiatives including a new waste management program manager and employee training.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6511232,"Board adopts staff response to climate grand jury; county to centralize sustainability team under county executive",498,6577000,7075000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5333120-e7f4edbb8fd08d65bae3900159cce4da&start=6577&end=7075","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5333120-e7f4edbb8fd08d65bae3900159cce4da/thumbnail_6577000.jpg","/articles/6511232/Marin-County/California/Board-adopts-staff-response-to-climate-grand-jury-county-to-centralize-sustainability-team-under-county-executive","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6511232-e879b7cfc528d89c5198aa34f3278112/orig.mp4?Expires=1770424223&Signature=c6ewWdvk-WTPJ2Mku0~gZHU8Hu9ATd8IRsaVC57gT1DEgsCv-svANaGlNkM02n3nUT1CJdwzsDpYzho~xXkYdRXXIOboZj6jx1vfzcgQYhjiSZh61nagob11XS0KXnZc~6Qv8a0MSEl5WQYZUD9lRhUe2krPUJwyS~xXV4rNgZ170YpwJwN1~7teg0jzgXsk6QDJNJTk91EILdHv~q~jK3HnMVl4V0SSbqWYRU1uuRbfiWwDIWvsVGw0jSWshHPzJ0X~Df2AzdSUWpdtVcDre60mSrFPhlrQnWezKSCc0pgUUu1UmIIoBC4zDIA1iIB9SnYI-kOemJ29M4bHkBXLFA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Marin County officials told the Board of Supervisors on July 8 they agree with the grand jury’s call for strengthened countywide coordination, data tracking and public education to meet the county’s greenhouse‑gas reduction goals and the board adopted the county’s written response.

Community Development Agency staff and county executive office staff presented the response. The county will transition the existing five‑person sustainability team from the Community Development Agency into the County Executive’s Office and expand the team with four additional positions authorized in the Fiscal Year 2025‑26 budget. Staff said the transition will complete in phases and the new structure and workplan are expected to be in place by spring 2026; the county executive’s office will recruit a director for the expanded, countywide climate program and use the new structure to coordinate with cities, towns, regional agencies and county departments.

Staff contested one numerical finding in the grand jury’s report that suggested Marin was not on track for the 2030 target; staff explained the grand jury’s chart omitted the county’s higher 2005 baseline and that when the actual 2005 numbers are shown the trajectory to 2030 looks more favorable. Staff repeatedly said the county must still accelerate reductions in transportation, building energy and other sectors and described how the new countywide team will use existing local plans — including jurisdiction 2030 caps, the countywide electrification roadmap, the Marin Countywide electric vehicle acceleration strategy and sea‑level‑rise work — to form a near‑term work program and prepare for a new 2040 climate action plan process.

The county also committed that the Marin Climate and Energy Partnership will publish a countywide greenhouse‑gas inventory annually, beginning with the 2023 data set. Staff noted inventories typically lag by a year because they depend on provider and state data.

Action: Following staff presentation, Supervisor Brian Colbert moved to adopt the proposed response and Supervisor Eric Rodoni seconded. The board approved the response on a recorded vote (ayes recorded). Staff will post the countywide inventory on the Climate and Energy Partnership website and on the county climate action page when completed.

Why it matters: The planned transition of staff and new positions to the County Executive’s Office signals a countywide approach to emissions reductions and adaptation planning with a single senior manager responsible for coordination. The annual countywide inventory will provide a single, accessible source for tracking progress across all jurisdictions in Marin County.","The Board accepted the county response to a civil grand jury report on climate action, confirmed plans to move the county sustainability team to the county executive’s office, and committed to publish an annual countywide greenhouse‑gas inventory.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6511236,"Board concurs with staff response to grand jury report on reentry employment services; highlights coordinated approach",826,5389000,6215000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5333120-e7f4edbb8fd08d65bae3900159cce4da&start=5389&end=6215","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5333120-e7f4edbb8fd08d65bae3900159cce4da/thumbnail_5389000.jpg","/articles/6511236/Marin-County/California/Board-concurs-with-staff-response-to-grand-jury-report-on-reentry-employment-services-highlights-coordinated-approach","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6511236-28445be82d21c8011f6e2536bbe985e3/orig.mp4?Expires=1770424223&Signature=ohfUFvzvHdBKrg7ors5ftJDUIj6aXZtEZMeH-slYZm19XpyqS1z0uUfXNigcHDoG8Ulm94u1Td7bVW3SQC-g3KUy2KoPGGrVYac4ZOfggPLHr7-kqyHV4838m2DohAdcE68SB-xbPsF6G~k-CQgZVx-7PAOnUWTRPDgQMzP0DqDThlbI7kmD9~8qXzNoNJrvAvg-WwPSI70FlxAi31sMMTVhUESVRY5BpRTp40wsCriFwZ9hUjWX8vLtkFgJreXVg2RPQL9GpfrdS1AoK8~me3rBm9OM619ojiLCouCgp-X1SqZkEFypPF2Opkh2GvoLIDEIBZP4aD3mM4Sqd~1Emw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Marin County Board of Supervisors on July 8 concurred in a staff response to the Marin County Civil Grand Jury report titled “Uncuffed and Unemployed: There’s Work to Be Done,” which examined employment services for people leaving the county jail and those on probation.

County staff and department leaders briefed the board on services currently available and outlined next steps. Gary Besser of the County Executive’s Office presented the recommended response prepared in collaboration with Health and Human Services (HHS) and Probation. HHS and Probation staff described existing programs: an employment development counselor (EDC) embedded with Probation, the county’s CalFresh Employment & Training program, the jail reentry team, behavioral health and substance‑use services, and existing data and reporting obligations to the state.

Probation and HHS staff emphasized that successful reentry often requires a sequence of interventions: stabilization (housing, mental health and substance use treatment), workforce readiness and then job placement. Probation’s staff noted that many incarcerated individuals are not ready for employment services immediately upon release and that the target group for intensive reentry employment services is primarily those supervised under AB 109 and similar reentry populations. HHS staff said they maintain quarterly and state‑reporting data on participation in employment and training components and indicated capability to share summary reports with Probation and the board.

The grand jury recommended centralizing employment assistance within a single department; county staff instead recommended continuing a multidisciplinary approach while strengthening coordination and data sharing. Staff said the county executive’s new management model — approved in the budget and being implemented — will create a forum for the cross‑departmental coordination the grand jury sought. Staff also noted existing data reporting to state agencies but agreed to provide the board with periodic summaries of local participation and outcomes.

Action: Supervisor Damon Connolly (Lukin in transcript) moved concurrence and adoption of the proposed written response; Supervisor Eric Rodoni seconded. The board recorded the vote as aye by Supervisors Connolly, Rodoni, Colbert, President Sackett and Supervisor Moulton Peters; the motion passed. Following adoption, staff will transmit the formal response to the grand jury and the presiding judge and continue to work on data sharing and improved coordination among Probation, HHS and related partners.

Why it matters: Reentry employment services are central to reducing recidivism. The grand jury’s review highlighted gaps and opportunities; county leaders agreed on the importance of employment assistance but favored a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach that aligns behavioral health, housing, training and Probation oversight.","Marin County staff told the Board they support the grand jury’s focus on employment support for people leaving jail but prefer a multidisciplinary, coordinated model rather than centralizing all services in a single department. The board concurred and adopted the proposed written response to the grand jury report “Uncuffed and Unemployed.”","actionData","errors"]
