Lincoln Rec included in the City's Capital Improvement Plan

We did it! 

Thanks to our advocacy, persistence and CIP proposal, the City of Oakland adopted our newest budget and Capital Improvement Plan and included a new recreation center as one of the City's highest priorities. 

As part of the Capital Improvement Program, the City ranked all proposed projects based on a range of factors. Once scored, the Lincoln Square Park Recreation Center was the highest scoring Parks and Rec project, and one of the highest scoring (8th out of 176 projects) priorities city-wide. 

The 1.7 million set aside in our 2019-2021 budget will be used to begin the planning process and select a design firm.
