San Jose Flea Market

[2] Other members of the Bumb family own vendor stalls, work at food carts, and have managerial positions within the Flea Market.

[10] On August 14, 2007, the San Jose City Council approved the proposal to rezone the property on Berryessa Road to allow for a 2,800-house development.

[12][13] The lone disapproving vote was cast because the Council member felt the requirements the city gave the Bumb family were excessive.

The motion approved the Bumb Family’s plan to potentially develop the land on which the San Jose Flea Market is located [citation needed].

[needs update] In January 2019, the San Jose City Council held a community meeting presenting proposed plans for a mix of housing, retail, parks and a future medical building on the land north of Berryessa Road.

A large retail center including a Safeway and CVS Pharmacy have since been developed and opened on the northwest corner of Berryessa and Sierra Rd.

The large triangular section of land south of Berryessa Rd on which the flea market shops and stands are currently located is proposed for commercial buildings.
