This looks like a conspiracy by some developers and their friends to screw a rival developer at the public’s cost, despite and against the expressed will of the public. We already know developers like to increase their profits at the expense of the public, and here they are, (people like Perata & Cowan are behind this with not a whisper of objection by our mayor of Alameda) ready to issue new bonds to take control of the BA ferries that were bought, organized by, and support Alameda and Mare Island – both places where development competitor Lennar has major developments in the works.

Seems politics and crime are now synonymous.
