[Sustain] POWER PLANT ALERT! - This Mon. Maxwell/Peskin Forcing Pro CT 'Peaker' Legislation To Board

Hi all,
In yesterday's LAFCo meeting, the newly hired contractor for Community
Choice, Local Power, announced in their first report on Community Choice
that they have studied the problem of the existing Mirant Potrero Hill
Power Plant, and under Community Choice can fully and rapidly replace
that old polluting plant with 100% clean renewable power and efficiency
projects.
Meanwhile, Supervisor Sophie Maxwell and Board President Aaron Peskin
are using last minute cynical maneuvers to force the Combustion Turbine
'Peaker' Power Plants (or CTs) down our throats, yet again!
This Monday in the Land Use Committee they will together move to pass a
measure to the full Board of Supervisors (for a vote on election day
when we are all busy with campaigns) that will require a strict
conditional use process on all new power plants and all retrofits of
existing plants EXCEPT for the CTs because they have already been
approved for installation by the CEC and so are considered -neither- a
new plant -nor- a retrofit! Supervisor Maxwell's aide Jon Lau has
verified that this will be the effect of the legislation, and when asked
by organizers to take time to meet with us to correct the legislation,
he refused! Lau also admitted that the legislation could even block new
renewable energy and Community Choice projects, but also refused to meet
with us to discuss this issue as well!
So Maxwell and Peskin are seeking to pass a measure that will block all
power plants in San Francisco except for the one they want to build in
the Bayview Hunters Point. They are doing this so that they can more
quickly get rid of that existing power plant in Potrero Hill, so that
Supervisor Maxwell's rich developer friends in Potrero Hill can double
their profits on land values there, all at the expensive of the Bayview
Hunters Point accepting yet another polluting fossil fuel power plant.
This racist, classist, not-in-my-back-yard policy must be stopped
immediately, and we must demand that if the City is going to pass
legislation to make it harder to build power plants in San Francisco,
that this legislation must absolutely and unequivocally force any
installation of the CTs through the same strict process that all other
polluting power plants will be subject to under the legislation.
Show up to this Monday's hearing to speak your mind and demand
accountability from Supervisors Maxwell and Peskin on their cynical
pro-real-estate-developer, anti-Bayview games - and to demand no new
power plants in the Bayview.
The hearing is this Monday, October 27th, at 1pm, in City Hall Room 263.
The hearing Item is number 6 of 13 and the Eastern Neighborhoods Plan is
also on the agenda, so we should just show up on time and expect a long
wait.
(If you live/work near City Hall and can watch the hearing on SF Gov't
Television on the web at http://sfgov.org/site/sfgtv_index.asp?id=11463
or on either cable channel 26 or 78, you might want to just watch until
item 6 comes up and then go to City Hall.) Also note that item 9 is the
Mayor's legislation to push a costly retrofit of the existing Mirant
plant to keep it running longer, which we also decided last year to
oppose. So if you can, stay for that item as well to ironically -agree-
with Maxwell and Peskin that the Mayor's legislation not go forward. For
full hearing details see below or at

Here is the detail on item 6:
