From a reader:
I’m a 20+ year resident of Pleasant Hill, a dad, husband, and soccer coach/referee. My family is helping to raise awareness about the upcoming sale of the Oak Park Elementary School Site. Contra Costa County will soon decide whether to sell it to private real estate developers, or to the Pleasant Hill Parks and Recreation Department. Parks and Rec want to develop the site as a multi-use open space, with sports fields, running trails, and as a flood basin for the area. We are encouraging the County to sell to Parks and Rec.
I started a Facebook page to raise awareness, and to encourage Contra Costa residents to sign this petition, started by another local resident.
