Park District Opposes Housing Development on Property for Crab Cove Expansion

East Bay Regional Park District officials and their supporters voiced opposition to a proposed housing development on property the district had hoped to purchase for a Crab Cove expansion, according to The Alamedan.

Representatives of the East Bay Regional Park District told the Planning Board they felt voters wanted the Crab Cove expansion when they approved a 2008 regional park bond which included purchasing the property and expanding the park.
