Please sign this petition by noon on Tuesday March 8th.
My company (Curtis + Partners) is proposing to develop a 34 unit building on a property at 2700 San Pablo (at Carleton) that has been vacant and blighted for nearly 20 years. There is a small group of people (3) who filed an appeal to the City Council and have gotten 72 other people to sign a petition asking the City Council to hold a full hearing on the project. The tactic here is simply to delay the project in an effort to force my company to relent to the unreasonable demands of one neighbor. The appeal has already delayed the project for two months and, if not quashed by the City Council, will prevent me from purchasing the property by the deadline of March 17 set in the purchase agreement. The appeal is being considered at the March 8th City Council meeting. Please help to stop a few people from further abusing the process.
I have spent the last few days meeting with council members to explain how this single site has been left to rot for two decades. It is frustrating to see a small group use these tactics to stall progress when we are so close to finally revitalizing this lot.

Seeing this level of support for the project feels like a massive weight lifting off my shoulders. It confirms that our community wants to see this vacant space turned into homes instead of watching it stay blighted for another twenty years.

Total nonsense. 3 people are holding up an entire project? just build the apartments and fix the neighborhood.

Enough with the delays. That property has been a dump for way too long. Let the developers get to work.

That lot is such an eyesore. We need more housing in this city not less. Just build it already.
