Point San Pedro Road Coalition
Home Page
Our Mission: To promote the interests of the residents of the Point San Pedro Road Corridor by collaborating with local homeowner's associations and residents to enhance and preserve the beauty and environment of the area, ensure the health and safety of the residents, and to protect the peaceful enjoyment of the residents' homes.
The Pt. San Pedro Road corridor in East San Rafael is a beautiful region combining a variety of residential communities, a marina and a commercial center. In addition, it includes McNear's Beach and China Camp State Park. A wonderful article describing the area and its history was published in the August 2008 issue of the Pacific Sun.
The Point San Pedro Road Coalition was formed in 1999 initially to protect the local environment, principally inspired by the environmental problems created by the San Rafael Rock Quarry. The Coalition has expanded its mission in the past several years to take an interest in the long term future of the Point San Pedro Community. As an organization, the Coalition acts as a clearinghouse for issues and concerns in the community, conducts forums for discussion and the exchange of ideas, and coordinates shared efforts among homeowner associations and residents that make up the Pt. San Pedro Road corridor in East San Rafael. The Coalition works cooperatively with the administrations and agencies in the City of San Rafael and the County of Marin to achieve its objectives.
