While fossils will certainly be the spotlight of the monument, they're not the only resource, officials said.
Thomas Stuhr is one of two park rangers who've been hired to help develop the monument. His duties will include educating the public, guiding groups to visit the site, removing litter and helping develop the management plan.
Stuhr, who moved from San Diego to take the job, said he first visited the monument in September, soon after being hired.
"Coming from a big city, I saw how land can get gobbled up by houses and strip malls," he said. The monument "is significant because it's going to provide years of opportunity for people to get out and have recreation and solitude. There aren't too many places in San Diego where you can drive 15 minutes and be surrounded by wildlife and be able to collect your thoughts and be restored by nature."
Smith said the public should participate in the planning process because the monument "is public property."
"If they have something that they want to be included, they need to speak up," he said.
