Hayward board backs Rowell Ranch purchase plan
The Hayward Area Recreation District voted to pursue buying the Rowell Ranch rodeo site and to reexamine Castro Valley’s Stanton House restoration. It rejected a draft environmental impact report for a pre 38-lot subdivision near Campus and Oakes drives. The board unanimously supported preserving the rodeo heart for youngsters and adding programs on cattle management. The price target sits around 145000 dollars, with further negotiations needed. Community leaders and HARD staff will shape a land use plan with local involvement.
