It is getting a little frustrating to constantly see the city of Oakland lag behind on everything from policing to education and now to the win-win that is the building of the new A’s stadium.
After two pro franchises have just left the city and the one remaining franchise desperately wants to stay in Oakland. Not only are they going to privately finance their own stadium, but now the A’s are going to build affordable housing at the Coliseum, and the city isn’t running to close the deal?
I just can’t fathom why they are not? I feel as though it is just a reflection of Oakland and how they can’t get their act together.
