Bravo. Well said.

City government cannot afford to maintain its lands and services in Oakland. Outside help is essential.

This help needs to be from private corporations, wealthy individuals, foundations, and federal / state grants. Without these, our public lands and services will deteriorate.

If given the responsibility for park maintenance and operations, the Lake Merritt Conservancy can solicit and use outside funding to work together and create a truly amazing place to live, love, and share. For Lake Merritt, this path is through the LM Conservancy.

Exactly so! The well being of LM can ill afford loss of any funding designated for maintenance and public safety.
