in the early 1900s, petaluma was an important city because of the river. the train trestle was the main shipping point to export the county's agricultural products and import goods from san francisco. >> the fedex of 1930. overnight shipments could be delivered to san francisco and brought back the same day. >> reporter: christopher is leading the charge to save the trestle which has fallen into disrepair. it's now fenced off from the public. 20 years ago it was still used as a public gathering place for festivals on the river. >> this is the balcony to the river and the river is the heart of our town. >> reporter: a 2013 study shows the structure is still strong and putting a new surface on it could turn the trestle into a riverfront promenade to benefit local businesses. it would probably cost between $5 and $10 million and promoters are excited and they believe this is time for it to happen.

>> we believe it can be done and we'll work diligently to get it done. >> reporter: as luck would have it, they have a secret weapon. john maher is known around town as petaluma pete. a piano playing professional business promoter who visited the town 20 years ago and fell in love with it. >> i've been a promotion director all my life. it's time to bring on a cause and make something make a difference for this town and the trestle became my obsession. >> reporter: now he calls attention to the cause by playing free honky-tonk piano concerts at spots around town, delighting people and using the power of music to persuade. >> so it's making music as the tool so we can open the door and the ears and the minds of people to what we want to talk about. >> reporter: but with any big dream come naysayers. >> it's time to take a chainsaw to it, bring it down, not dwell

so much in the past forever. >> reporter: byron schneider says the money would be better spent fixing potholes on petaluma boulevard. >> all i can say to that guy is every town has got potholes, but this one has got a river. >> reporter: and a trestle that may one day serve as the city's link to its own history. in petaluma, john ramos, kpix 5. the city council seems to be behind the proposal. last week they named the trestle restoration as one of the city's top priorities for the next two fiscal years. commit a crime in truckee, prepare to answer to this guy, captain mugshot. the 8-month-old stray is the newest member of the command staff. he spent time jumping from shelter to shelter. captain mugshot will soon be assuming the role of community outreach canine. i believe he goes by mugs. >> captain mugs. don't play with the captain, but play with the captain because he
