LENNAR FIGHT MOVES TO BOE

According to the blog Educational Justice, Tuesday evening’s regular SF Board of Education meeting will consider a resolution supporting the stoppage of work at Lennar’s redevelopment site in Bay View Hunters Point.

Educational Justice is written by a team that includes Eric Mar and Kim-Shree Maufas, two Board of Education members who are sponsoring the resolution.



Their blog post, which includes the full text of the Stop-Lennar resolution, includes a link to BVHP commenter and activist, Francisco DaCosta. Mr DaCosta is extremely outspoken in his opposition to Lennar. I’m impressed that elected officials such as Mar and Maufas would align with him.




Here’s the agenda item description:

In Opposition to Lennar Corporation’s Hunters Point Naval Shipyard Development and In Support of the Community’s Demand for a Temporary Stoppage and an Independent Health and Safety Assessment to Protect Our Students and Their Families
- Commissioners Eric Mar and Kim-Shree Maufas
(Per Board Policy 120, Section 9.4, the Board may suspend its Rules in order to consider action to this resolution at First Reading)


The meeting is open to the public.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2007 6:00 P.M.
555 FRANKLIN STREET, FIRST FLOOR

The meeting will be shown live on cable channel 78, and can also be viewed via live webcast.

I personally hate lennar corporation. They only want to sell youa home, they dont care if you pick the right mortgage or if your loan includes interests or such. They only care about their earnings. I hope they go out of business.

Dear Anon: Did you see my post about LENNAR BOMBS...? In Florida they built homes and schools on land that had unexploded artillery shells.
