Looks good but how about making business more diversified too? Making it easier for the potential business owner to set up vs giving them so many obstacles to overcome and delays in approvals? I’ve been living in San Leandro for over 30 years and it makes me sad to see the retail go down hill and how unattractive many business fronts look with trash or just just empty spaces. When a new business does fill a space it’s likely to be a nail shop, barber shop or hair salon….sometimes same type of businesses just feet from each other. Myself and several others I know choose to drive out of the city to do our shopping where it feels safer and there is free parking to shop. The city has so much potential with a downtown, parks and a Marina! San Leandro needs more beautification and it needs to feel safer to want to do business here. Look at Alameda and Castro Valley…they are doing something right.
