Marin County will use about $2.5 million of Measure A money to acquire 167 acres of ranchland adjacent to the Mount Burdell Open Space Preserve.
The Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the expenditure on Tuesday.
“It is a staggeringly beautiful landscape and a natural geographic extension in the landscape from the existing Mount Burdell Open Space Preserve,” said Carl Somers, planning manager for Marin County Parks.
