WHAT: <\/strong>Press Conference on Proposition G’s Environmental Consequences<\/p>\nEnvironmental organizations are hosting a press conference to urge closer reading of Lennar Corporation’s Proposition G. With safeguards “anticipated” and “promised,” one of North America’s largest developers hopes to buy over 700 acres of southeast San Francisco for $1. Environmentalists are concerned about Lennar’s dubious environmental record, losses of marshland to highway construction, and plans to build an astro-turf parking lot to replace developed parkland.<\/p>\n
“San Francisco needs to recycle Lennar’s glossy fliers and read the actual text of this initiative,” explained SF Tomorrow Director Julian Davis. “People need to know about Proposition G’s environmental consequences. This is a ploy to pave parks for profits. ”<\/p>\n
Despite Lennar’s promises to clean up toxics at this site, environmentalists point to the text of Propsition G. Section ___ of the initiative states that “the final development plan for this Project Site may be materially different from the Project,” depending upon “certain variables, including, for example and without limitation, market changes, economic feasibility and the timing of the 49ers departure from Monster Park.”<\/p>\n
Two of these excuses are already present in light of recent news. Last week, the 49ers announced plans to move forward with their relocation to Santa Clara. And Lennar’s stock price has declined 20 percent since the company announced a $1.9 billion loss in 2007.<\/p>\n
