Earth Day Restoration at California State Parks and the Crystal Cove Alliance
With the failure of Proposition 21, California’s remarkable state park system remains faced with similar threats of closure faced in previous years, but with $22 million in proposed cuts to state parks in Governor Jerry Brown’s proposed budget, park closures have gone from a worst case scenario to a certainty. The only question, at this point, is which parks will be closed and which organizations, conservancies, and local governments may be able step up and help. The Crystal Cove Alliance establishes a template for how it can be done.
