DESCRIPTION:On April 1, the San Francisco Chronicle made the shocking announcement that 
 the Navy and the City had just signed a conveyance agreement to give the 
 green light to Lennar to start building 1,600 homes on Parcel A of the 
 Hunters Point Shipyard as early as this summer. Yet Proposition P, passed 
 in 2000 by an 87 percent voter landslide, calls for the entire Shipyard to 
 be cleaned to residential standards before any development begins – and 
 the Shipyard is far from clean.   To win environmental justice, the 
 community is fighting back. Intent on stopping any conveyance or 
 development, the Community First Coalition is sending this letter to the 
 Redevelopment Commission. The Commission is holding a special meeting on 
 the conveyance agreement on Tuesday, April 27, 6 p.m., at Burnett School, 
 1520 Oakdale Ave., just east of Third Street, in Hunters Point. Everyone is 
 urged to attend.  Commissioner Ramon E. Romero, President   San Francisco 
 Redevelopment Agency Commission  Dear Commissioner Romero:  On behalf of 
 the Community First Coalition (CFC), a coalition of citizen groups 
 dedicated to environmental and economic justice for the people of Bay View 
 Hunters Point and other communities, we request the San Francisco 
 Redevelopment Agency (SFRA) continue the matter of your Agency’s 
 approval, on March 31, 2004, of the Conveyance Agreement (CA) between the 
 U.S. Navy and the City and County of San Francisco (CCSF) for the Hunters 
 Point Shipyard for at least 60 days, but at least until such time as SFRA, 
 as the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA; Public Resources Code § 
 21000 et seq.) "lead agency," completes its environmental review of both 
 the CA and the Lennar/BVHP Disposition Development Agreement (DDA), 
 executed on December 2, 2003, by the SFRA[1]. Both the CA and DDA are 
 "projects' within the meaning of CEQA.  Request for Continuance of 
 Conveyance Agreement Pending Environmental Review  The CCSF Redevelopment 
 Commission took discretionary action on December 2, 2003, by approving the 
 DDA for the development of the Hunters Point Shipyard. Additionally, by and 
 through Mayor Gavin Newsom, CCSF took what is clearly discretionary action 
 by approving (i.e., entering into) the CA with the U.S. Navy. The CA sets a 
 specific timetable for giving CCSF a portion of the Hunters Point Shipyard 
 for residential development (herein referred to as Parcel A), as well as 
 giving commercial development rights to Lennar/BVHP, a private, 
 non-governmental organization.   \n
