We assume this is satire, because the petition language is full of jokes and makes no real substantive arguments. “Noe Valley might be vibrant, but it deserves more than the constraints of high-density urban living,” the petition says. “By joining Marin, we reclaim our right to a peaceful, suburban life — where parking spots are a given, and the existential crises over every artisanal loaf of bread become a relic of the past.” The petition also says that by being annexed into Marin County, Noe Valley can “Embrace a vision where Noe Valley stands as a beacon of renewal — where innovative programs like Marin’s renowned ‘Golden Retriever Ownership Program’ (yes, really) illustrate a commitment to quality and community joy.”

The state’s park system has 280 parks and about 5,200 miles of trails. The poll, conducted this spring, garnered more than 1,300 responses from the foundation’s members and supporters. Rachel Norton, the executive director of the foundation, said the effort was about introducing places to people who might not know about them. The survey featured 10 categories, including best for dog-friendly adventures, best for birdwatching, most kid-friendly, best for camping and best for wildflowers. “To people in San Francisco and in southern Marin, Mount Tam is not a secret, but it could be to someone from Southern California who is visiting the area for the first time, or somebody from the East Bay who hasn’t been over the bridge in a while,” Norton said.
Read MoreTiburon Boulevard Bike Lane Critics Fail to Deter Caltrans’ Efforts to Safely Connect Mill Valley, Tiburon and the Tiburon Ferry to the Benefit of Both Residents and Tourists

Not all are happy with these changes. According to the Marin Independent Journal this week, there’s plenty of local opposition to additional bike safety measures in Tiburon. But despite local opposition, bike lanes will be added to both sides of Tiburon Boulevard when the road is upgraded next year. “The bike lanes will stay,” said Matt O’Donnell, a Caltrans spokesperson. “Can there be adjustments to the bike lanes? Yes, that’s a possibility. … But, for the most part, these are tweaks.”
