Joel --

It's official: the Treasure Island Development Authority (TIDA) just announced that the TIDA board will vote this Wednesday, Oct. 11, on the future of Clipper Cove.

This is an important moment. Please come to the hearing if you can:  SF City Hall, room 400, (City Hall is on the west side of Civic Center plaza). The meeting starts at 1:30 and the hearing on this item will probably start at 2:00 PM.   Wednesday Oct 11.

And, if you haven't already, please email San Francisco Supervisor Jane Kim asking her to preserve public access to one of the best parts of the San Francisco Bay and to oppose the proposed private luxury marina that would take 1/3rd of Clipper Cove.

You can reach Supervisor Kim at Jane...@sfgov.org  You can reach her aide Barbara Lopez at barbar...@sfgov.org

You can also let the TIDA board know how you feel by copying TIDA staff director Bob Beck at bob....@sfgov.org

Thank you for all your support.  This is one of the fights where public input can make a BIG difference.

We will get three chances to stop this takeover.  Besides TIDA, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and the Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) also have to approve this project.  We actually have a better chance with the SF Board of Supervisors.  But this TIDA vote is up first, so it's important to show the Supervisors that the community cares by speaking up now.

Please know that the Sierra Club, S.F. Bay Keeper, the U.S. Sailing Association, the San Francisco teachers union (UESF) and many San Francisco leaders are supporting us. For a full list go here: http://saveclippercove.nationbuilder.com/san_francisco_leaders_rally_behind_clipper_cove

As the Sierra club recently noted: "We would never give up 1/3rd of Golden Gate Park to a private luxury resort, and we shouldn't do that with Clipper Cove - the largest and most valuable protected open water cove in San Francisco."

I am sure you are all monitoring the wind as the fires continue to burn to the north.  Windy.com is a great app to track the wind today and the days to come.  Be safe.

Thanks Rich,
Both my old houses in FountainGrove are ashes and our old fairfield house is just outside the evacuation zone
