Wente open space acquisition and park district disposition
A companion land transaction would acquire property for open space, conservation, and non-motorized recreation, then eventually transfer it to the Livermore Area Park and Recreation District — potentially expanding trails and passive recreation opportunities.
Corbett property open space acquisition (817 acres, Altamont Hills)
The city is moving to buy roughly 817 acres of Altamont Hills grassland for permanent open space. The land is a critical wildlife corridor and habitat for golden eagles, California red-legged frogs, and tiger salamanders. The Planning Commission's consistency determination is a required step before the acquisition can proceed.
