There is a rare opportunity to create new green space in a park-deficient urban area, while also addressing a serious lead pollution problem. The 180-acre Reid-Hillview Airport is closely surrounded by neighborhoods that for decades have endured constant noise, risk of plane crashes, and recently confirmed lead harm to kids.
The East San Jose community is demanding that the County close the airport and repurpose the site according to a community-centered vision that includes parks and natural habitat.
Please stand with us in our efforts to provide green space and protect a local community, with a donation of $15 or more today.
