After a decades-long debate on the regional impact of Stanford University’s expansions, Santa Clara County has awarded its neighbor to the north, San Mateo County, with $5.2 million to add more trails and make recreational improvements at parks throughout the area.

The funding commitment, which stems from a Stanford General Use Permit approved in 2000, was finalized by the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors this week. It will help fund seven projects across a handful of San Mateo communities, including Menlo Park, East Palo Alto, Redwood City and Atherton.
