Welcome!

Alameda County District 5, is a vibrant community comprised of diverse cultures and ethnicities. There are constant events, issues and activities that are taking place within the District at any moment in time.

The Fifth District includes the cities of Albany, Berkeley, Emeryville, Piedmont, and West Oakland, North Oakland, Rockridge, Grand Lake, and portions of the Fruitvale, Manzanita and Dimond District neighborhoods.

As your County Supervisor:

a) I hope to make it easier for the residents to learn more about the District and other County Services;

b) I will keep the residents of District 5 more informed about relevant issues - political, economic, and social - that impact the residents of our District; and

c) I want to hear your ideas about what is working and what you think would make our communities better.

I will continue to work to bring together people who have a wealth of talent and creative resources to address our shared problems in our communities including access to health care, ending poverty, homelessness, crime, improving business retention, and employment.

Feel free to send me an e-mail if you have any issues, ideas and concerns you want to share with me.

Yours Truly,
Keith Carson

IMPORTANT BUDGET UPDATE - IMPORTANT BUDGET UPDATE - IMPORTANT BUDGET UPDATE - IMPORTANT BUDGET UPDATE
Terminator Two sample

The Terminator Tour will bring to light the severe impact of the budget cuts and the dismantling of our critical community programs.  Behind all of these cuts are real people!  It is important that everyone understand the harsh effects that cuts to essential services will have on our community.

 

In all the noise and fury about the state’s budget crisis, the people most impacted by budget cuts have been misrepresented -- they have been scorned, ridiculed, and abused. At a time when social programs are needed most, Schwarzenegger would suggest that fraud and abuse among the poor are the cause of the state’s woes.
