The City of Oakley rolled out a program in support of local businesses. The
Shop Oakley program evolved from an earlier effort called "Oakley First" which began some years ago. The Shop Oakley coupon program is designed to remind consumers of the variety of shopping and dining opportunities in Oakley, to pass along savings to consumers and to support local businesses in the process.
 The Shop Oakley 2016 coupon booklet includes savings at a wide variety of local businesses including discounts at restaurants, hair salons, auto service centers, floral services, dry cleaning and more. The booklets contain more than $1000 in savings. Shop Oakley coupon booklets are FREE and are available at City Hall and at participating businesses.

 Oakley Chief of Police Chris Thorsen reminds residents, "Routinely during the summer months we receive calls regarding animals left in cars unattended. In nearly every case, we find the driver left the pet only for a few minutes while they ran a quick errand. Though I fully understand that most pet owners would never intentionally injure their animal, many don't realize just how quickly the vehicles interior can heat up to lethal heights."
Even in relatively mild weather, the interior of your vehicle can reach extremely high temperatures in a very short time. On a day when the sun is out and the ambient temperature is only 85 degrees, the temperature inside your car can increase as much as 20 degrees in only ten minutes. Worse yet, in an hour the interior of your car can reach 140 degrees. Chief Thorsen states, "I understand the desire to take your pet with you as you travel; however, on some days, both you and the dog will be better off if you leave them home."
