Calling the question on Kule Loklo


Questions. So many questions. 
In preparing this piece, I reached out to many individuals and institutional representatives, asking what they see as the past, present and future of Kule Loklo, the roundhouse and Big Time. Each time I spoke with a stakeholder, I came away with a new, somewhat wrenching understanding and found my own perspectives seriously challenged.  
We’re taught in anthropology to declare our biases when composing ethnographic studies. Here’s mine. I’ve been active in Kule Loklo affairs for the past four decades. This includes field trips with my young students (we helped dig out the first roundhouse), volunteering with the Miwok Archaeological Preserve of Marin on workdays and coordinating their Indigenous skills classes with the College of Marin, teaching and taking many of those classes, writing articles, attending numerous Big Times and participating in sacred ceremonies.  ....

Marin County’s updated Local Coastal Program will go into effect within a month, following a vote by the Board of Supervisors last Tuesday to approve the final document. Yet the update, which will guide development in the coastal zone in compliance with the California Coastal Act, excludes the chapter on environmental hazards policy, upsetting some groups that are eager to see new guidelines on threats like sea-level rise and wildfire. The hazards chapter was last updated in 1982; now, the county has until next spring to finalize it. 
At a hearing last Tuesday, supervisors accepted the staff recommendation presented by Jack Liebster, a planning manager with the Community Development Agency who has led the update process over the past 13 years. In accepting the staff recommendation, the board rejected an amendment proposed by Supervisor Dennis Rodoni that would have delayed the implementation process until the hazards ch ....

Farmworker housing advocates are facing some hard lessons from a pilot project that fell drastically short of its goal. Starting in 2012, a collaborative between the Marin Community Foundation and Marin County used a combination of public and private funds to build and renovate agricultural worker housing on ranches in West Marin. The group initially planned to fund 200 units within five years, but later sharply reduced the goal to 20 units. 
In the end, only a dozen units were built, while the need for more affordable housing never went away. 
“There were a number of lessons learned, including that using public funding on private land is really challenging,” said Leelee Thomas, the planning manager with the Marin County Community Development Agency who led the project.  ....
