East Meadow Update 5/15/23 
There has been a significant new development in the long-running struggle over SHW and the East Meadow: a month after the UCSC administration got the Regents to approve a proposal that was supposed to make the project immune to litigation, a group (not EMAC) filed suit not only to invalidate that action, but also to bar UCSC from proceeding with the project until all pending litigation has been resolved. We of course cannot predict how this latest litigation by others will play out, but it i...

East Meadow Update 3/12/23 
There is a major new development in the long and tangled story of Student Housing West with its reckless proposal to develop the East Meadow. The University has just asked the UC Regents for approval of a new approach to building and financing the project. SHW would now no longer be a public-private partnership and would be funded with bonds issued by the University. Most distressing, the East Meadow would be placed on a fast track, constructed and financed independently of the rest. If the R...
