5/14/24 Oakland City Council Committee Set Hearing on OAK Expansion, Port declined.

Written By Ariella Granett

The Oakland City Council’s Community Economic Development (CED) Committee had scheduled a Study Session On Proposed Oakland Airport Expansion at Oakland City Hall in May 2024, but the Port of Oakland declined to attend requesting it be delayed until after The Port has issued the Final Environmental Impact Report. The Stop OAK Expansion Coalition advocated for this Study Session to daylight these questions:

  • Why is there a need to expand? 

  • What are the expected Environmental Impacts - including Projected increases in Emissions of Criteria Air Pollutants, Ultrafine Particles, Toxic Air Contaminants and Greenhouse Gases? 

When this is re-scheduled please attend in person or on Zoom, to show your opposition to the proposed expansion of the Oakland airport. Come voice your opposition to more air pollution in East Oakland, more climate crisis, and more jet noise.
