It will be similar to volunteer patrols from other open space agencies including the Santa Monica Mountains based\u00a0Mountain\u00a0Bike Unit. The MBU was founded by\u00a0<b>CORBA<\/b>\u00a0in 1988 and now works under the National Park Service, the California\u00a0State Parks, and the Santa Monica Mountains MRCA (Mountains Recreation &amp; Conservation Authority).<\/p>\n<p>Volunteer Trail Patrol members will assist the MRCA rangers by regularly patrolling the Palos Verdes Nature Preserve on foot, by horse or by bicycle. The goal is to educate and assist trail users, report safety hazards, maintenance needs, and regulation infractions. Volunteer Trail Patrol members will not be able to issue citations or make arrests.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to have members from all three user groups on the patrol. Peer to peer communication\u00a0is the most effective way to education trail users and minimize user conflicts concerns. For years\u00a0<b>CORBA PV<\/b>\u00a0has called on the city to collect factual on-trail information instead of relying on anecdotal comments at public meetings.\u00a0Your participation will help collect accurate information and lead to impartial decisions by the city council.<\/p>\n<p>The program is yet to be finalized but volunteers will undergo training and commit to four hours per month.
