San Francisco has two projects with Lennar. Hunters Point Naval Shipyard is an old industrial landscape full of asbestos, military dumped chemical wastes and other wastes. In March 2005, the city’s Board of Supervisors approved the first phase of a redevelopment plan. Building condominium apartments and town homes on 63 acres. A vote was prepared for June 3 to decide on the $8 billion second phase. With propositions G and F. Proposition G would turn 496 acres in the shipyard and the adjoining 276-acre Candlestick Point into a neighborhood of 10,000 homes, 2 million square feet of research and office buildings, 600,000 square feet of retail space and a new stadium for the 49ers of the National Football League. 300 acres of new parks; a seven-mile network of walking and biking trails, commute train system

Lennar "agreed to make 25 percent of the homes available for sale at below-market rates. Lennar says it has hired minority contractors and has reached out to the Bayview community for labor. The company also agreed to rebuild and expand a neighboring housing project without having to relocate any of its residents."

Competing proposition: "Proposition F reflects worries that residents will be cut off from the jobs and wealth generated by the development, and that rising property values might force them out of their homes." requires that "half of the housing built in the new Hunters Point-Bayview project be offered for sale to working families at below-market rates. Buyers who earn 80 percent or less of the median annual income for the region — $64,000 for a family of four in San Francisco — could qualify for subsidies and steep discounts."

Mayor Gavin Newsom said that, if both propositions passed, the project could not be done and the land would linger for 25 more years.

"Mayor Newsom and a number of other prominent leaders, including Senator Dianne Feinstein and the House speaker, Nancy Pelosi," want to transform south-eastern industrial area into modern shoreline urban neighbourhoods "The reconstruction of rugged south San Francisco is the largest urban redevelopment project here since the 1906 earthquake and fire, and may be the largest in the nation in size and value, city officials said."

There's another area of problem: "Mission Bay, a new 303-acre section of south San Francisco that is rising from an old shoreline rail yard and industrial area. Work started on the $7 billion project in 1998, and it is about 45 percent completed." Includes new campus for University of California, "6 million-square-foot biomedical and biotech research center", shop, public library, houses.

SF has a shortage of housing and it's the only municipality of Bay Area where the prices have not gone down.

change from 25% to 32% "On May 16, Lennar reached agreement with a coalition of neighborhood groups and labor unions to sell 32 percent of the Hunters Point-Bayview project’s housing at below-market rates."

"Tim Paulson, executive director of the San Francisco Labor Council, who helped negotiate the agreement" says Proposition F would help the working families.

Lennar is open to increasing the percentage of affordable homes and increasing the expenditure on infrastructure.

outcome of votation
(need source for this)

pollution problems and fine
"The Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD), a regulatory body whose responsibilities include monitoring of air pollutants, voted unanimously to fine Lennar BVHP LLC for more than 384 days in which the developer failed to adequately protect the health and safety of the Bayview Hunters Point community." Lennar failed to monitor asbestos and others at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard.

Mare Island, the former U.S. Naval shipyard in Vallejo
(Is this the same place?)

California Department of Toxic Substances Control, portions of Mare Island already cleaned up (goes with explanation above that first phase is already done or almost done)

El Toro military base
"will mark the end of more than a decade of attempts to build a commercial airport on the site."

"The 5,223 acres of former Navy property is owned by Lennar Mare Island, a subsidiary of Lennar Corp., chosen by Vallejo in 1997 as the site’s master developer. In 2002, Lennar took title to 650 acres on the island, where it says it will build homes, shops, restaurants and businesses. The company got the land free but promised to invest $260 million in streets and utilities, historic preservation and building renovation."

"The project is a striking parallel to Lennar’s interests to the south: the mothballed 3,718-acre former Marine Corps Air Station at El Toro, which the developer won at auction in February for $649.5 million. Like Mare Island, El Toro is an enormous piece of land riddled with contamination but holding great potential."

"For Lennar, closed military bases have become a cottage industry. Since acquiring the Mare Island acreage, Lennar has won bids to develop homes and offices at the closed Hunter’s Point Naval Annex in San Francisco and built 16 million square feet of industrial and office space on portions of March Air Reserve Base near Riverside. It is also negotiating to build on the former Treasure Island Naval Base in San Francisco."

"The spending spree is according to plan. Company officials deliberately eyed closed naval bases in California because of their attractive locations. Though the process has been slow and complicated, thanks to toxic contamination and dissension over how the land should be used, the long-term payoff could be handsome."



"The payoff for Lennar in acquiring the base will come with the construction and sale of 3,400 homes, which Lennar will build, and 3 million square feet of office, retail and industrial space. Lennar hopes to begin offering the first homes for sale in December 2008."

"The center of the base, which is among land to be turned over to the city, will serve as the heart of the Great Park,", spots park, museum district.

Ignon said that air monitors required at the site of land grading had not been working for the first three months of subcontractor work. During that time, rock underlying the site may have kicked up asbestos over planned levels. Ignon said the projected levels had been set much lower than the state Division of Occupational Safety and Health standards and so had not caused any serious long term health threats."more actions of the Stop Lennar Action Movement (also details on the area)
