Quick Glance: Oakland Airport Considers Adding 'San Francisco' to Name

Oakland International Airport is considering adding 'San Francisco' to its name to attract more passengers, but faces opposition from neighbors across the Bay.

The Board of Commissioners for the Port of Oakland will discuss the matter at their upcoming meeting on Thursday.

Officially known as Metropolitan Oakland International Airport, the airport lost 39 of 54 new routes added from July 2008 to March 2024, raising concerns about geographical confusion among travelers.

The potential name-change has alarmed San Francisco officials, who fear it would cause confusion among travelers and infringe on the city's trademark rights.

The dispute may be resolved through a compromise name, similar to other intercity conflicts.

Experts highlight potential confusion from the Oakland airport's name change, as well as the geographical justification of including "San Francisco Bay" in the new name.

How effective are California's homelessness programs? Audit finds state hasn't been keeping track

apnews.com/article/california-homeless-audit-spending-8c8c8ce6cd9fc6840e180a99fccff588

Quick Glance: California's Lack of Oversight on Billions for Homelessness Programs: State Audit

A new state audit report criticizes California for failing to track the effectiveness of its billion-dollar spending on homelessness programs.

California is faulted for not taking enough measures to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of its homelessness programs.

The audit revealed that two programs, including the Homekey program by the Department of Housing and Community Development and the CalWORKs Housing Support Program by the California Department of Social Services, appear cost-effective.

The audit calls for improved data collection and public reporting of the costs and outcomes of homelessness programs in California.
