Stop the Land Grab in San Antonio Park!
June 23rd, 2021
Dear Neighbors,
A San Antonio Park Master Plan was released to our neighborhood for public comment in January 2021 by the consultants the City of Oakland has retained for this capital improvement project. As you may have heard, the construction of a Fire Station IN THE PARK is being proposed. This would develop precious open space in an area that is already one the most densely populated in Oakland. For many families, the outdoor play areas offered by San Antonio Park are their only options for outside recreation.
AUG 28TH VISIONING MEETING: FOSAP has been invited by the City and Council President Bas to conduct a community charrette on Saturday August 28th. Come and participate in crafting a vision for San Antonio Park! (click for meeting details)
TAKE ACTION. Click the link to contact City Officials and express your support for protecting San Antonio Park from development.
We are forming a new group, Friends of San Antonio Park, to better organize and advocate for our Park. Please contact us at friendsofsapark@gmail.com By emailing us, we can also include you in notifications and action alerts.
Thank you!
I’m totally against this land grab. Let’s preserve the little remaining openspace that we have.

This is an incredibly bad idea which must be stopped. The logic behind it certainly has to be questioned.

Please stop the land grab and do not allow the fire station in San Antonio park. The space should be used for public recreation/open space.

Please email CP Bas to register your opposition to this project. She is our first line of defense, and could derail this ill-conceived proposal.
