I was disturbed to read the article in the East Bay Times which reports that Alameda officials have indicated that the Jean Sweeney Open Space Park won’t be as large as originally envisioned.
With all the new housing now under construction on the Northern Waterfront and at Alameda Point, it is imperative to fulfill the City's commitment to completing this open space as planned. I don't thin UP Railroad has been the best steward of their land, which the City was working to obtain to complete the park. The City needs to continue its efforts to acquire the parcels are originally intended.
Email your City Council to urge them to stay the course to complete Jean Sweeney Open Space Park as planned.
