Kensington is an unincorporated community of about 2200 homes, located in the East Bay Hills between Berkeley and El Cerrito. Kensington maintains its own police department, as well as park and recreation programs for all ages, via the Kensington Police Protection & Community Services District. The Kensington Fire Protection District provides fire protection and emergency medical services via a contract with El Cerrito.
KIC Volunteer Work Day Saturday July 24 to clean up two paths in Kensington
Many Paths to Tread … and in Kensington, they could use some sprucing up! When Kensington’s residential lots and streets were platted (a map, drawn to scale, showing the divisions of a piece of land) in 1911, the paths were included and offered for dedication to the County, but the County never accepted them. As no one owns these paths, they are haphazardly maintained. There are 12 segments to this path system, comprised of trails and stairs. These paths are used by a number of Kensington residents regularly, as shortcuts to traverse the hilly terrain to get to the Arlington shops, the #7 bus stop, or as the means for an enjoyable stroll away from traffic. The Kensington Improvement Club needs volunteers to weed and trim the overgrown shrubs, on Saturday July 24, from 10 am-Noon. They'll start with Paths 1 and 4, which run east from Coventry to Ardmore, and from Ardmore to the Arlington. Info: email MelissaAHolmes@aol.com.
