Have they completed a Human Health Risk Assessment in order to determine that this 7-ft deep removal of soil will keep the site within EPA levels? Are they capping the entire contaminated site with asphalt? And why are the citizens of Emeryville being ripped off once again by our elected officials with tax dollars being shunted over by the millions to Wareham? Why should they be subsidies.

People they perceive as political enemies raised some questions about the project, which served to harden Nora's heart and bring along her lackey, Mr. Brinkman. Perhaps even more disgusting is the fact that this office building is receiving over a million dollars in voter approved state mass transit money because it is a "transit oriented development" meanwhile, it moves the Amtrak buses FURTHER from the train station, and does NOTHING to improve transit services (coordinating AC Transit to SF, local AC Transit buses/EmeryGoRound/Amtrak/Amtrak Buses to SF). And Ruth Atkin reveals herself once again as a fraud who pays lip service to sensible development but sells out her supporters at every turn. I wonder how that phony sleeps at night.

How much money does he really need? He has not always produced healthy buildings for the people of Emeryville (the Terraces). I am more than disappointed that the council trio continues to grant lavish subsidies for developers such as Rich Robbins. This development should have been negotiated with the citizens of Emeryville being considered first. I wonder just how much profit Mr. Robbins has made from this city over the years? Remember, we, the people, are still paying for the many redevelopment giveaways to developers. What is the trio's thinking other than just add this to the bill for the citizens to pay? A predictable outcome from Atkin, Brinkman and Davis.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394711926853801811.post-58979503870882601422014-01-22T05:30:05.997-08:002014-01-22T05:30:05.997-08:00More new development by Wareham means more securit...More new development by Wareham means more security systems provided by Intrepid Electronics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
