Official Text

To the Honorable Board:

I'm writing in support of the People's plan for the higher jobs and housing linkage fee, as submitted by Fred Berman. It represents the absolute minimum of what our community needs to offset the negative impact of Union Square development.

The Administration proposal, requesting the lower amounts, or a scheduled increase, is completely out of line with community needs and desires.

Jacob Kramer
