Both local and regional radio and TV carried stories supporting the proposed new park. <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-palette-color-8-color has-text-color\"><strong>In the end, it came down to a final public hearing before the Lake County Board of Supervisors.  The major landowner had applied for permits to change the land&#8217;s agricultural use to a residential use.  This change would have increased the value to a point where the State could no longer afford the purchase.  On the day of the hearing, it was standing room only in the Supervisor&#8217;s Chambers.  The public turned out in mass to voice their support for the park purchase.  Members of the Department of Fish and Game, State Parks, the Audubon Society, Native American groups, The Historical Society, the Sierra Club, and many civic organizations were there.  The owner&#8217;s agent asked for a continuance, but it couldn&#8217;t be granted, so the owner withdrew his application.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-palette-color-8-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">Here are some of the support letters:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-link-color wp-elements-0bc832b5496fc6e6685c65d5e6c8d7a4\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/wolfcreekarcheology.com\/files\/82NelsonHopperSupport.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>From Tribal Elder Nelson Hopper<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-link-color wp-elements-561f7c2de07f2803b8083dfb265e4f3d\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/wolfcreekarcheology.com\/files\/ElemSupport.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>From Elem Tribal Historian Jim Brown III<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-link-color wp-elements-f0f846cc684aa8cfb357bd0b6ed6258b\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/wolfcreekarcheology.com\/files\/80ChamberSupport.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>From the Lake County Chamber General Manager<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-divider stk-block-divider stk-block stk-28bb56e is-style-bar\" data-block-id=\"28bb56e\"><style>.stk-28bb56e{margin-bottom:3px !important}.stk-28bb56e hr.stk-block-divider__hr{background:var(--theme-palette-color-2,#55a630) !important;width:85% !important}<\/style><hr class=\"stk-block-divider__hr\"\/><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-luminous-vivid-amber-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\"><strong>The Birds of Anderson Marsh<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-palette-color-8-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-c9a764327bcd09362186d2143a869ba5\"><strong>Dr. Paul Baldwin conducted a study of bird-life at Anderson Marsh in 1983.<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"files\/1983BirdsAndersonMarsh.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>&nbsp;Click here to&nbsp;<\/strong><\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"files\/1983BirdsAndersonMarsh.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>see a PDF of <\/strong><\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"files\/1983BirdsAndersonMarsh.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>his report<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-palette-color-8-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7c9ca07ba3c69154712937bc3e199107\"><strong>Dr. Baldwin and crew bird-watched every week for one year and listed 146 species and the months<br>they were spotted at Anderson Marsh.<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"files\/BaldwinMonthList.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>\u00a0Click here to <\/strong><\/a><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/wolfcreekarcheology.com\/files\/BaldwinMonthList.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>see the monthly bird list<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anderson Marsh Between 1976 and 1978, John Parker led a team of Sonoma State University archaeologists to survey and recorded prehistoric sites at Anderson Marsh.
