Description

Oakland, we need more police. The Wakefield Building is a cultural asset, many of its tenants are community oriented in some form. Someone has done thousands of dollars in damage tagging the top floor on the east and west side of the building. The taggers and graffiti artists have gone too far for too long. In the last two years we lost several murals that have been a part of our community for decades. This isn't home grown, the whole country knows our police department is understaffed -we've become a vandalism and illegal dumping destination. We need more police!
