Rebuild Oakland's Hospitals

Form a “red team” of representatives from each of the four hospitals as well as key public officials (CEDA Planning Director) and members of the community to improve the process of planning and entitlements. 

 

The team will:  set project timelines; streamline the process within CEDA by creating a new contracting mechanism; and improve the Design Review process. 

 

The team will also enable a more effective and constructive public process by including:  (1) representatives from labor unions and local employment training programs to address issues of local hiring, job training, and small business utilization in the construction process; and (2) neighborhood representatives who can help resolve and address neighborhood concerns about construction related community impacts.

 

Champions: Children's Hospital Oakland; City of Oakland
