Oakland Zoo

TPA is honored that the Oakland Zoo has asked us to continue to provide federal, state, and local legislative advocacy services to protect and promote its agenda in Washington, DC and Sacramento!

TPA was proud to help the Oakland Zoo secure the passage of Assembly Bill 96 (Atkins), which helps to protect elephants and other animals from abuse. AB 96 was signed by the Governor in October 2015 and now prohibits the importation of ivory and rhinoceros horns in California.

We look forward to our continued collaboration with the Oakland Zoo to help transform its vision into legacy.

City of Riverbank

TPA is proud and honored to announce we have been hired by the City of Riverbank to provide State and federal funding advocacy services!

Riverbank is a growing community of over 23,000 residents located in Stanislaus County along the Stanislaus River in the heart of the Central Valley. (The City was formerly known as Burneyville from the establishment of the Burneyville Ferry over the Stanislaus River back in the 1850’s.)

Riverbank is also the home of the Riverbank Industrial Complex (RIC) on the site formerly known as the Riverbank Army Ammunition Plant. The RIC’s conversion from a military facility to a thriving business park is well underway. The reuse of the property will create a diverse industrial and manufacturing center where entrepreneurship, opportunity, environmental consciousness and local economic growth can thrive.

TPA looks forward to helping the City and the RIC transform its priority community projects into legacies!
