SB 79 would greatly impact Marin towns
As a former member of the Sausalito City Council, I am deeply concerned about the impact of Senate Bill 79, which promotes dense housing near transit hubs. What will it do to our small town, as well as others across Marin County and the state? Sausalito’s charm and economy rely on its natural beauty and unique character — but it also faces serious challenges: fire risk, sea-level rise and unstable landfill zones.
Local communities understand these risks best.
