Novato is a city in northern Marin County, in the San Francisco Bay Area, in California. Population 51,904 (2010). Novato is located about 30 miles north of San Francisco on U.S. 101.

US101 runs through the states of California, Oregon, and Washington. It is also known as El Camino Real (The Royal Road)

Bohemian Grove is 75 minutes/50 miles away.

Napa, CA is located 45 min away/30 miles away.

Megan Rouse is the daughter of JP. Dublin, CA is where she was appointed to a school board. She appears in WL emails.

WikiLeaks released another document showing that Rouse’s father asked big-time Washington lobbyist Jim Davidson in an email to contribute to his daughter’s 2014 school board campaign. Davidson’s clients include the likes of Disney and CBS. “While you probably aren’t too vested in the outcome of local California school board races, we hope you can support her candidacy, even at a modest level, as she begins her career as an elected official. Similar email blasts titled “Our Daughter’s Fundraiser” were sent out to many others to encourage donations. http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/10/21/dublin-school-board-member-linked-to-wikileaks/

Megan was also involved in some of the uranium scandal too. https://bunkerville.wordpress.com/2016/11/02/podesta-puts-tainted-russian-uranium-shares-in-daughters-account/

I found this campaign pre-election form for a City Councilman candidate, Joshua Fryday. Megan Rouse had contributed, as well as a lot of other East Coast folks. It’s from Nov 2015. (California Form 640). What interest does the East Coast have in this city?

Here is a little information about Novato https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novato,_California

Here is some of the local economy:

• Buck Institute for Research on Aging, (Buck? Aging Research?)

• Biotech and Pharma companies, (Medical Connection)

• A former AIR FORCE BASE decommissioned in 1974, and designated historic and zoned for single family homes (Who occupies these single family homes now? Would there be tunnel or underground access built right into the foundation of the homes?.

• Relationship to video game development. (The symbols keep showing up in games/apps)

• several small tech companies, including parent companies of Rockstar Games.

• The school district is the largest employer, followed by BioMarin Pharmaceutical. (Education 1st, Drugs 2nd, wonder what’s 3rd?)

Economy[ (a few companies are named…toys, distribution, gamemakers)

The city is home to the Buck Institute for Research on Aging, and several biotech firms, such as Biosearch Technologies and BioMarin Pharmaceutical. Several small technology companies are also based in Novato, such as 2K Marin, Radiant Logic,Toys For Bob, One Legal, International Genetics Incorporated, Channel Management Solutions, Enwisen, Sonic Solutions and DriveSavers. It is also home of a development studio for Take Two Interactive, parent company of Rockstar Games.

The former Hamilton Air Force Base is also located in Novato, but was decommissioned in 1974 and designated a Historic District in 1998. After lying stagnant for many years, major renovations were pushed through by then-mayor Michael DiGiorgio. As of 2008 the base has largely been redeveloped into single family homes. The former hangar buildings were gutted and redeveloped into two story office buildings. Hangar tenants include 2K Sports, Sony Imageworks, Visual Concepts,The Republic of Tea, Toys For Bob, and Birkenstock Distribution USA.

In Novato for many years (from 1983 to 1998) was headquartered, the iconic[23] developer of video games Brøderbund Software known through games Choplifter, Lode Runner, Karateka, and Prince of Persia, and others.[24]

I found Gabe Podesta’s name on the contribution list too. He is JP’s son, Megan’s brother. There is some discussion of Gabe P here: https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1526753

And it appears that Gabe and Josh Fryday (the Novato City Council Candidate) know each other.

Here is a wikileak email that included a lot of Podestas and Josh Fryday, discussing Afghan Commerce. https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/54217

When I learned that I was deploying to support a contracting command, I figured I would learn about the Afghan economy. What I hadn¹t figured was that those lessons would have nothing to do with my official duties. When I stepped off the helo pad at Camp Phoenix and into my office for the first time I was immediately introduced to GS-15 DoD employee. She asked me how many ³cartouches²I wished to purchase. A cartouche, I learned, is a cheap pendant necklace engraved on one side with an English name and on the other with the same name in Dari (or so they claim; it may well say Go Home American Swine for all any of us know). I initially demurred but eventually relented and agreed to purchase three. Even that compromise was met with an incredulous look and a puzzled ³just three?² The interaction seemed odd but I figured that I just happened to arrive as a bulk order was being placed and that purchases like this were atypical. I was wrong. My coworkers spend multiple duty hours each and every day shopping at the bazaars. They buy jewelry. They buy rugs.

I found this site familytreenow.com and found some JP addresses. There were two in California: one in Truckee, and one in Novato. Both addresses contain the word Hidden in them.

I clicked on the Novato address and got this: https://imgoat.com/uploads/51ce410c12/12041.png http://www.familytreenow.com/search/map?address=12688+Hidden+Cir+%233%2c+Novato%2c+CA

Did you notice the Rocking J & R Ranch right above it? I couldn’t find an owner name for the ranch, but the trainer is a law officer.

Mounted Patrol Officer for the Marin County Open Space District, which she has enjoyed doing for over 24 years. http://rockingjr.com/trainer.html

They host summer camps too

Children’s Summer Camps For our younger horse lovers, nothing is more fun, challenging, and rewarding than spending a full week perfecting one’s riding skills while learning from each other. Day camps are offered two to three times a year, typically in June and August. Each one-week session generally runs about four hours per day, Monday through Friday. Sessions are limited to a maximum of eight students to ensure individual attention.

Here is a screenshot of the area around Hidden Oaks Dr #3: https://imgoat.com/uploads/ab3238922b/13023.png

Here’s just the plain map. Notice all the green areas-wildlife preserves, and the access to water. https://imgoat.com/uploads/ab3238922b/13026.png

A little more information on Josh Fryday from WL about his candidacy in an email to JP and Megan:

This came together quickly when the sitting City Councilwoman decided at the 11th hour not to seek a third term, and the seat opened up. This is a volunteer position, and I’ll continue to work with Tom, and run NextGen Climate.

https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/46023

What is NextGen Climate: https://nextgenclimate.org/about-us/

NextGen Climate acts politically to prevent climate disaster and promote prosperity for every American.

Tom, founder of NextGen, that was referred to above: https://nextgenclimate.org/about-us/tom-steyer/

Tom Steyer is also mentioned in this https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1450792 Another rich philanthropist.

This WL email is written by Jim, Tom’s brother.

Sounds good. Btw, we had a good chat with Ginny Erlich last week re childhood obesity and I had great meetings with Neera in DC re the kids campaign ... Will give you the update on that and the book stuff.

And my bro is potentially interested in chatting about collaboration with the Clinton Foundation... He may be in NYC on Feb 16th. Good luck and we will talk very soon. Jim
