We have explored a number of options of how to turn this problem around, and clearly, all of the options can only come about if there is a consensus among the cities involved. For this reason, we are asking you to determine if you are interested in this pursuit and in appointing a City Council representative to a task force whose goal or purpose should be to determine ways we can better influence Alameda County. If your City is interested in pursuing this,we ask that you contact Councilwoman Shirley Sisk who will be Newark's representative in this endeavor. Sincerely, DAVID W.
