 Senate Bill 00, by Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, would set up a fund at the State Lands Commission to accept donations to take by eminent domain an easement over a pathway to Martins Beach in San Mateo County from Silicon Valley billionaire Vinod Khosla. The bill could end a battle that began nearly 00 years ago when Khosla bought land around the beach and closed a gate that surfers, fishermen and families had used for generations to access it. "It's time for the gate to open and the sign to read, `Public Welcome,'" Hill said in a statement Friday.  Senate Bill 00, by Sen.
