CEDA proposes new redevelopment area in North Oakland

CEDA, Oakland's Community and Economic Development Agency (which includes the Redevelopment Agency), wants to add about twice as much area to the Broadway/MacArthur/San Pablo Project Area.

The Broadway/MacArthur/San Pablo Project Area currently consists of two distinct areas in North Oakland and is comprised of 676 acres. The Broadway/MacArthur sub-area incorporates Broadway Auto Row and Telegraph Avenue between 27th and 42nd Streets. The San Pablo sub-area incorporates the portion of San Pablo Avenue from 53rd to 67th Street. The new area would fill in the area that separates the two sub-areas, taking advantage of a quickly gentrifying section of Oakland.

The area that will be added to the Broadway/MacArthur/San Pablo Redevelopment Project Area by the proposed amendment consists of commercial, industrial, public and residential land uses. The area begins at Telegraph and 42nd street and includes one parcel to the east of Telegraph and all properties to the west of Telegraph to the Berkeley border to the north and the border of the existing San Pablo sub area to the west. In addition, the proposed amendment area includes the parcels that front the Broadway commercial corridor between 42nd and 51st Street. The area includes approximately 5,000 parcels and comprises about 880 acres.

CEDA has released three RFPs on this project: one for a consultant on redevelopment services (due May 4th); one for a consultant to provide engineering services (due April 27th); and one for a consultant to conduct an environmental impact report (due May 11th). All three RFPs can be found at http://www.business2oakland.com/main/redevelopment.htm#DevelopmentOpportunities.
