San Leandro Receives 5000 Loan for Shoreline Ramp
The Small Craft Harbors Commission approved a $5000 loan to San Leandro for planning a small-boat landing ramp on its four-mile shoreline. The loan, the first by the commission, awaits land title clearance for the Tamp site near 32nd Ave Mulford Gardens. Everett Horn of Fish and Game will tour the waterfront next week to pursue construction funds. Details hinge on acquiring the land from an old Spanish grant with obscure titles.
