Negro Removal Approved by SF Redevelopment Agency - March 2, 2006

by Francisco Da Costa (frandacosta [at] att.net)
March 2, 2006 will be registered on the minds of intelligent and educated advocates. Especially those that can read and comprehend an Environmental Impact Report and full understand Land Use and Zoning issues in the City and County of San Francisco. This day will go down in history as the day when San Francisco with INTENT chose to embrace NEGRO REMOVAL in the Bayview Hunters Point. March 2, 2006 in Room 250 in City Hall will be remembered as a day of infamy
On Thurday, March 2, 2006 the SF Redevelopment Agency with INTENT approved the Certification of the Fake and Faulty Environmental Impact Report (EIR) linked to Bayview Hunters Point and the over 2,568 acres that the SFRA will have jurisdication over as the Project Area.

The SF Planning Department went with the flow. Expect Christina Olague. Kudos to her.

The day March 2, 2006 will be marked by those that are educated and understand the process of EIRs, Land Use, and Zoning Areas as a day when the City and County of San Francisco, Mayor Gavin Newsom, his cronies declared the process for NEGRO REMOVAL.

Unfortunately, those that sold out the community on the SFRA were Blacks. The 3 Blacks that could have saved the day led the charge to sell out their own community - Francee Covington, London Breed, and Leroy King.

The illegal Bayview Hunters Point Project Area Committee (BVHP PAC) also sold out leading the charge the leader of the BVHP PAC Angelo King. Of the 9 years the PAC was operating only the first two years had LEGAL elections - the rest all illegal.

There is only so much the educated folks can do. However if some Blacks want to act as sellouts they will be out of the community very soon.

All over San Francisco the population of Blacks today is 6% - in future within 3 years it will be 2%. In the Bayview may be 6%.

SFRA is never about jobs. SFRA takes your land and gives it to developers to build units.

It has a track record of screwing Blacks - but some Blacks will never get it. The majority of folks in the Bayview Hunters Point will soon be Asians and Latins. This is just a fact of life.

The SFRA has failed at Mission Bay, it failed in the Western Addition, and it will be a failure in the Bayview Hunters Point.

The evil Marcia Rosen lied and lied again and she is very interested in meeting the dead lines to collect Tax Increment in the millions - to get rid of the community and pander to some vested interests that will build homes, make money, and leave.

This issues will be taken to COURT. It is only there that the matter can be adjudicate once and for all. We did that with the Housing Element.

The EIR in question did not:

1. Address traffic issues in a detail manner.

2. Did not evaluate Health and Safety issues.

3. Did not address the abatement of 400 toxic hotspots in the Project Area.

4. We have radials and radioactive elements on Parcel C, D, E, and F.

5. No mention of Cumulative Pollution and adverse affects.

6. No mention about the 3 Combustion Turbines to be places at Pier 80 within the Project Area.

7. BVHP has the worst air pollution now and it will get worse in the future.

8. No detail analysis linked to liquefaction as most of the land is fill in in the Project Area.

9. Little if NO report on Cultural Resources. The land belongs to the Ohlone.

10. Little if No outreach. No Asians, No Latins, were outreached. Shame.
