Press Release: MAYOR JOHNSON CONCERNED ABOUT FINANCIAL IMPACT OF SUNCAL BALLOT INITIATIVE, October 13, 2009
Excerpt:
“It is important for Alameda residents to realize this is a developer-driven initiative,”
stated Mayor Beverly J. Johnson. "Although I am a strong supporter of development at
Alameda Point, this initiative over reaches, usurping the City's ability to negotiate a fair
development deal that financially protects the City. After studying the election report,
I’ve come to the conclusion that it is completely one-sided.”
...
“Like many, I was initially enthusiastic about the SunCal initiative,” Mayor Johnson
explained, “But, it is now a question of fairness - what voters expected versus what we
are now told in the initiative. After thorough review of the measure, I believe that the
SunCal initiative will have devastating financial impacts on the City.”
