Paul was nominated by Supervisor Penny Gross to represent the Mason District. Paul said he is excited about working to protect the Bay and, not incidentally, Lake Barcroft. "It will be a delicate balancing act to work with the defined exceptions under the ordinance in such a way that exceptions are honored and protection of water quality is maximized."
