Pledge Summary

The City of Mountain View is excited to participate in its second year of the Mayor's Monarch Pledge and plans to build upon the efforts from our first year by maintaining and expanding pollinator habitat, continuing our Seed Library Program, and adopting the Shoreline Wildlife Management Plan that incorporates efforts for helping monarchs and pollinators through maintenance practices and enhancement projects at our regional wildlife refuge and recreation area, Shoreline.
