Bayview Redevelopment Hits Board of Supervisors Today
A contentious proposal that would put more than half of the Bayview under the authority of the Redevelopment Agency will receive its first public hearing at the Board of Supervisors Land Use and Economic Development Committee today. Previous hearings on the proposal at both the Planning Commission and Redevelopment Agency turned into knock-down, drag-out battles between supporters and opponents, with claims that the proposal would bring jobs and housing to the community clashing with fears it would irreversibly gentrify the neighborhood. Today’s hearing promises to be just as dramatic, and will set the tone for the upcoming debate at the full Board.
