We are continuing to raise funds to pay for Curry Canyon Ranch as well as raise funds for future acquisitions, stewardship and management. Program expenses other than land preservation include stewardship projects, community education and outreach for land conservation. 745037 Education & Recreation:Save Mount Diablo publishes a newsletter twice a year to educate the public about the areas natural and cultural history. We host many events on and around the mountain to encourage recreation consistent with the protection of natural resources. As we have done in prior years, in 2015 we hosted outdoor recreational events geared to a variety of user groups such as hikers, cyclists, runners, artists and scientists. Events included a long distance trail run, a backpacking/hiking trip, a bike ride, and family hikes. We lead many free guided hikes on our properties and in parks on Mount Diablo. We continued our hike & thrive program which resulted in us leading 50 hikes with nearly 900 attendees. 499985 Land Use Planning:In 2015, Save Mount Diablo acted as the watchdog protecting Mount Diablo from inappropriate development threats by testifying at dozens of public hearings and meetings as well as conducting site visits to proposed projects to educate decision makers about the impacts of development. On a weekly basis, Save Mount Diablo monitors 51 different planning agendas and responded to several dozen different development proposals around Mount Diablo from cell tower proposals and small subdivisions to large projects such as the reuse plan for the Concord Naval weapons station and threats to urban limit lines. Save Mount Diablo participated in a coalition working to establish an urban limit on the east side of Dublin, and to defend that urban limit line from a developer challenge in November. We responded to the Tassajara parks, Creekside Cemetery, Brentwood general plan, James Donlon extension, Montreux and Faria projects and were involved in the Concord Naval Weapons Station reuse plan and county wide transportation plan. Significant funds were expended on legal efforts related to the Nunn property in Brentwood, and related to Pittsburg projects.Stewardship:In total, we led 70 projects which included 800 volunteers who completed 5,000 hours of work on our properties. We restored a volcanic dome on our Marsh Creek 6 property and protected riparian habitat at our Curry Canyon Ranch property. We continuedcleanup projects at Curry Canyon Ranch and began cleanup at our Hanson Hills property. We fully implemented our fire abatement/Fuel load reduction program on all properties. We funded small grants, a Bioblitz and a colloquium as part of our Mary Bowerman Science and research program. 1997664 true true false false false false false false false false true true false true false false true false false false false false false false true false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true 25 0 false 26 true true true false false false true true true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 12 12 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X X MONICA OEI 9259473535 1901 OLYMPIC BOULEVARD SUITE 320 WALNUT CREEK CA 94596 HEATH BARTOSH Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JOE CANCIAMILLA Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JOHN GALLAGHER Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 CLAUDIA HEIN Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SUE OHANIAN Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 GARY JOHNSON Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MALCOLM SPROUL Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 FRANK MARTENS Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARTY REED Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SCOTT HEIN President 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 AMARA MORRISON Secretary 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BURT BASSLER Treasurer 4.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 RONALD BROWN FORMER E.D. 40.00 0.00 X 155663 0 8423 EDWARD S CLEMENT JR Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 26047 0 0 181710 8423 1 false true false B&W 1901 OLYMPIC BLVD LLC 1777 OAKLAND BLVD STE 100 WALNUT CREEK CA 94806 OFFICE RENT 148903 1 316780 2005141 116202 2321921 LAND REVENUE & MGMT FEES 900099 22789 22789 PROGRAM EVENTS 900099 112068 112068 134857 29691 29691 0 0 52365 19058 33307 33307 33307 2449367 2396420 52947 52947 52947 175530 316780 175530 175530 0 -2751 5112 -7863 -7863 OTHER INCOME 900099 13240 13240 13240 2753630 187804 25444 218461 18750 18750 0 0 0 190133 96968 68448 24717 0 1124364 577451 401650 145263 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 158339 109330 33351 15658 0 128277 58295 1712 68270 5426 3111 1561 754 0 166736 97131 46319 23286 46845 37699 5381 3765 0 0 0 0 70993 66508 4485 25586 17440 5686 2460 ACQUISITION-CONSERVATION LAND 752642 752642 BAD DEBT 196848 196848 OUTSIDE SERVICES 174091 49009 19735 105347 EQUIPMENT/MAINTENANCE/RENTAL 51925 30440 7153 14332 121490 82890 4804 33796 3232445 1997664 600285 634496 1445659 2373915 0 671639 158188 1106 14369 0 0 0 10876 9117 52126 33235 183862 153511 38506 30351 0 2474422 1002540 0 0 15256621 15857469 19950955 19479184 147700 74090 2363231 1801045 2510931 1875135 X 16169221 17174131 1270803 429918 17440024 17604049 19950955 19479184 X -478815 -11020 -86499 740359 X false true X true false X 2024019 1399448 6435384 2696603 2205719 14761173 0 0 2024019 1399448 6435384 2696603 2205719 14761173 4801686 9959487 100811 41291 63008 44602 29691 279403 612 612 33918 35142 337 1456 11014 7797 13240 33844 15109562 0.65920 0.83240 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 164630 135527 29103 19232 17984 1248 30351 1002540 CHARITABLE REMAINDER TRUST 77868 CONSERVATION LAND 13813168 CONSERVATION LAND HELD FOR SALE 692189 CONSERVATION LAND STRUCTURES 1205332 DEPOSIT 8912 LAND PURCHASE OPTION 60000 15857469 2753630 2753630 2753630 3232445 3232445 3232445 X X X X X false CA AR GA MA MD MO NC NJ NY OH OR TN WA WI PA MOONLIGHT MOUNTAIN 492310 316780 175530 492310 316780 175530 175530 true CALIFORNIA STATE PARKS 96 MITCHELL CANYON ROAD CLAYTON CA 94517 941707583 18750 0 SALARY EXPENSES 1 0 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used Save Mount Diablo's Stewardship and Outreach Coordinator staffs the Mary Bowerman Science and Research Program.
