I have seen Beautification Council's work in areas of Oakland and have personally participated in micro-cleaning of areas and also on-view areas where Beatification Council was instrumental in planting trees have placing deterrents to dumping and speeding in various locations which have helped to improve the communities. Ken Houston's commitment, knowledge, and connections lead to successful work and positive impacts within communities. In addition, Ken's ability to meet people where they are at in life is a rare and invaluable skillset which is life changing for some and brings people together within communities.
The Beautification Council deserves credit for doing amazing work cleaning up Oakland. They did a great job with Fitzgerald Park and should be strongly supported. Thank you Beautification Council - Oakland needs you!
