San Leandro Bay/Oakland-Alameda Estuary Adaptation Working Group


Requests for Proposals

The Community Partners Request for Proposals (RFP) has closed and the City of Alameda, on behalf of the Working Group, is in negotiation with two different community partner teams.

The City of Alameda, on behalf of the Working Group, issued an RFP for Technical Consultants on May 2, 2023. Proposals are due June 20, 2023. The RFP can be found on the City of Alameda's Bid webpage.


The Working Group is a coalition of shoreline communities and stakeholders working to co-create a coordinated and inclusive future-looking action plan and subregional organizational structure to accelerate sea level rise adaptation, protect and restore water quality, recreation, habitat, and promote community resilience.

The Working Group is organized around the SFEI San Leandro OLU, which stretches from the Bay Bridge touchdown to Oyster Bay, and includes jurisdictions, agencies and CBOs that have an interest in the shoreline within the OLU, as well as regional and state collaborators.

Our shoreline is vulnerable to coastal inundation and rising groundwater and contamination as a result of rising sea levels. These climate induced hazards will put critical infrastructure at risk, damage habitat, and further burden already vulnerable communities. Our goal is to create an inclusive, transformative, and equitable climate-ready community along the San Leandro Bay and Oakland-Alameda Estuary shoreline.

The Working Group meets quarterly on the second Wednesday of the month. To be added to the meeting invite, email dmieler@alamedaca.gov.

Next meeting: June 21, 2023 1 - 3:30pm at Jack London Aquatic Center, 115 Embarcadero, Oakland
