Cannabis Cultivation @ 5831 San Leandro St., Unit C

The City of Oakland Planning and Building Department is overseeing a project for cannabis cultivation located at 5831 San Leandro Street, Unit C, Oakland, California 94621. The project involves the use of 8,000 square feet for cultivation activities within an existing 60,368 square foot commercial facility. This activity is permitted at the discretion of the City Administrator under Chapter 5.B and S.B.I of the Oakland Municipal Code. The project is documented via a Notice of Exemption filed with the Alameda County Clerk in January 2026, asserting that the activity is statutorily and categorically exempt from environmental review because it utilizes an existing commercial facility and aligns with local zoning and community plans. Administrative oversight is managed by Erica Baptiste of the Bureau of Planning/Zoning. The applicant for the project is Dong Dong Li.
