  • Adopted new and confirmed existing park rules and policies for court use and other park uses in Eastwood and Kay parks. New signage will be installed in Kay and Eastwood Parks to reflect the adopted rules. Click here for a summary of the park rules.

  • Decided that TCSD should reconvene the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission (PRAC) with revisions to PRAC’s duties, responsibilities, and structure. The Board will consider the revisions at its November 9th meeting.

Eyes Up, Marin 
 Let’s Make our Streets Safer for Everyone!

From mid-October through the end of November, you’ll see bright and colorful banners and lawn signs popping up all over Marin asking people to keep their “Eyes Up” and be alert. These signs will be asking drivers to slow down, watch when turning and look for pedestrians in the crosswalk; bicyclists to yield to pedestrians and to follow the rules of the road; and those walking to pay attention when crossing the street.

Lost and Found

Good news! the lost and found posts are working!

We still have the Yeti water bottle - turns out there is a name on it! We can't post the full name but Emma W is a start.

We also found a box of unopened baby formula from a company name Bobbie with the address of someone in Berkeley on it. We are not sure how it ended up in Tam Valley but we would love to find the family that is missing the box!

If you recognize them give us a call at 415-388-6393 or email info@tamcsd.org
