Call SF Supervisors today to vote NO on the Bayview HP Redevelopment Plan!

last minute update: the vote is set for tomorrow tues May 16@2pm SF City Hall... unless we can stall it longer again??? Open Comment is still open so Please call TODAY MONDAY!!!

Call your Supervisor RIGHT NOW, before the vote - phone numbers below. Urge everyone you know to flood their phone lines: Stop the land grab!

Chris said the majority of the Board of
Supervisors is likely to vote YES on the BVHP Redevelopment Plan ...
UNLESS EACH SUPERVISOR GETS 100 PHONE CALLS FROM VOTERS
IN THEIR DISTRICTS.

Why would the Supervisors vote for the ethnic cleansing of BVHP?
Chris says these are their main concerns:
1) They're reluctant to vote against the only Black member of the Board.
2) They perceive the community as divided.

You (and the many other people you urge to call their Supervisors) may
or may not want to address these concerns. As for No. 2, surely every
Supervisor is aware of how adept City agencies are - Redevelopment
most of all - at recuiting people to testify for them.

Quite a few people did testify last week in favor of the BVHP
Redevelopment Plan. Several are not residents, and there's good
reason to believe that all of them felt compelled or coerced to support
Redevelopment. Some sincerely believe the lie that a Redevelopment
takeover is their only hope for a job. Nobody, however, trusts
Redevelopment. Everyone who supported the Plan said something
like, "We will hold Redevelopment accountable!"

Judging from the many, many calls and reports we get at the Bay
View newspaper, we believe that Bayview Hunters Point is
overwhelmingly opposed to the Redevelopment Plan! Residents
are deeply rooted, refuse to be moved and want to develop their
neighborhood themselves and determine their own destiny. They
oppose this HUGE LAND GRAB of 1,361 acres, home to over 30,000
people, 91% people of color, San Francisco's Black heartland.

Let's flood the Supervisors' phone lines with calls! (We've flooded
them with emails, but Chris says emails are often ignored.)
Tell them to vote NO on the Bayview Hunters Point Redevelopment
Plan - or, at the least, to table it or refer it back to Redevelopment.
(If they need a good reason, we have plenty!)
Remember to thank Supervisors Daly and Mirkarimi, who voted
NO on the Plan in the Finance Committee.
