Hi all,

great website!

I’ve been wanting to ask a group of dimond/glenview locals these following questions for some time. this post is not meant to become a flame war, just looking for some insight:

1. do you rent or own in Oakland?

2. do you think that renters should be allowed to vote on measures that ONLY financially impact property owners? meaning through property taxes. for example, when my wife and i rented, we usually voted on improvement measures because they didn’t cost us anything (landlords and homeowners paid for it through property taxes).

3. do you feel, as property owners, that you are getting a good return on your investment? meaning, do you think your property tax dollars are being well spent in Oakland? would you like an open book assessment of “where the money is going?”
