Got this e-mail last night. Probably not the right forum but thought I'd throw it up anyway. I live down in San Diego and don't know much about it so not sure if they are really trying to help the area and it's people or if it's an early stage gentrification by the city. Here it is:
MAYOR GAVIN NEWSOM
Dear Fellow San Franciscans,
This June 3, we have an extraordinary opportunity to help the Bayview Hunters Point neighborhood, create 8,000 jobs, 300 acres of parks, and thousands of units of family housing.
After years of planning and review there is a neighborhood-backed plan on the June ballot called Proposition G. This measure deserves our strongest support.
Proposition G has earned the enthusiastic endorsement of the neighborhood supervisor, Sophie Maxwell, as well as Dianne Feinstein, Phil Ting, Jose Cisneros, Bevan Dufty, Michela Alioto-Pier, both the Democratic and Republican Parties, the Alice B. Toklas LGBT Democratic Club, SPUR, the Asian American Democratic Club and scores of other community groups and thousands of individual San Franciscans.
Particularly in these tough economic times, it is important to remember that Proposition G will bring literally billions of dollars in economic activity. Proposition G means thousands of high-wage jobs. It will generate millions in new tax revenues. And Proposition G will provide much-needed support for our public schools.
Beyond promoting the economic health of our entire city, Proposition G will help fund and speed up the environmental clean up of the Hunters Point Shipyard. This will promote a healthier neighborhood and a healthier San Francisco.
I hope you will join me right now in endorsing Proposition G to create jobs, parks and housing for the neighborhood and for all of San Francisco.
If you would like to learn more, please visit www.cleanuptheshipyard.com. If you are still undecided, please read the facts for yourself. The numbers tell the story that this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform the abandoned Hunters Point shipyard and help revitalize our economy.
And if you would like to show your support – please join me at a campaign kick-off for Proposition G tomorrow, Saturday, April 26 at the Marketplace Fellowship Church at 11:00 AM. The Church is at 860 Innes Avenue at Earl Street.
I hope you will join the campaign for Proposition G. Our neighbors in the Bayview Hunters Point need our help to pass this plan. And the entire city needs the jobs, parks and housing this measure will bring.
Sincerely,
Mayor Gavin Newsom
