Sacramento leaders to vote on zoo expansion plans<\/p>\n

\"JenniferSACRAMENTO, Calif. \u2014<\/p>\n

Sacramento city leaders will vote Tuesday on whether to move forward with plans to expand the Sacramento Zoo. <\/p>\n

The zoo wants to expand into two areas: a 1.4-acre parcel directly next to the existing zoo and a 4.4-acre parcel across Land Park Drive. <\/p>\n

The zoo said the additional space would help it build new habitats and improve existing enclosures. <\/p>\n

The vote would formalize the potential expansion in the zoo’s operating agreement and lay out a path forward for future development. It would not approve construction or commit the city to providing funding.<\/p>\n
