“The most important issue is that we must create an entirely new approach to nurture and sustain this extremely unique zone that is the matchline [or] seam between human urban infrastructure and wild open space that is the well spring of the earth’s ecology. We are the largest city [in North America] closest to the ocean on the pacific rim, [and we have] the largest systems of Marin Sanctuaries in the world. There is little creative, environmental methodology for these two world’s to coexist.” —Lewis Aimes (SFMTA), OBMP Workshop 1 Participant, January 2011
