Overview
Oakland General Plan Update Phase 2
Phase 2 will work with the Oakland community to advance the following goals:
- Build a transportation system where everyone has access to safe and reliable options to get them where they need to go
- Create more livable and walkable neighborhoods where folks have access to the things they want and need, like grocery stores, arts & entertainment, retail, libraries, and parks
- Develop parks and recreational spaces, focusing on the most underserved neighborhoods, so that everyone can access and enjoy natural spaces
- Protect neighborhoods adjacent to freeways, airports, and industrial activities from excessive noise
- Improve our city’s infrastructure, from roads, bridges, and sidewalks to facilities such as public restrooms and fire stations
- Identify and work to meet the needs of Oakland’s many different, yet interconnected communities
