To be sure, many of the perks J. Paul and his minions are offering are worth having. The Blomquist extension has been <br />on the city's wish list for years. We all know housing is woefully inadequate. 10 Million to improve the 101/Woodside <br />interchange would certainly help. And it's nice that he has tossed a few million dollars into pots for children's <br />playgrounds and soccer fields. But at what cost? <br />None of the benefits offered individually or in the aggregate can begin to make up for the short- and long-term damage <br />this project would inflict upon the City. <br />The Gridlock it would create on freeways and city streets alone is horrific enough to reject it, and the solutions offered <br />are only crumbs compared to the additional needs it would create, exacerbating traffic problems and our housing <br />imbalance rather that helping solve these problems. <br />The project would further degrade the natural environment, not lead us into the future, polluting and further clogging <br />the Seaport corridor. <br />Revising the General Plan and zoning to allow this to happen would set a dangerous precedent for other developers <br />looking to profit from similar tactics, <br />We are trusting you to do the right thing for us and future generations. Please reject this EIR as inadequate, misleading, <br />and unworthy, and close the door to any further attempts by J. Paul to buy approval for this monstrous mistake. <br />Best regards <br />Lee Callister <br />Lee Callister <br />
