Mid-Peninsula Regional Open Space District (MROSD)
A group of elderly nuns who simply want to build a convent on land they own has been harassed by the Mid-Peninsula Regional Open Space District (MROSD), who at one point was attempting to take their land by eminent domain (perhaps even running counter to the board’s own policies regarding its use), had reached an agreement to stop the taking, but is now pulling strings to prevent them from building their convent/retreat.
The nuns finally gave up their fight, caving into the environmentalists who didn’t want them to build a retreat on a small portion of the land they used to own. Please read Nuns Abandon Project and Open Space District To Buy Land From Nuns from the SF Chronicle.
