Thanks Sue - here is a stab at it - I would keep the first form as motivation. Whereas, the proposed Home Depot at Cortland and Bayshore would add unacceptable levels of traffic and, Whereas, this traffic would result in severe congestion, air pollution with its attendant health problems, and also safety and access problems for pedestrians, and Whereas, city-wide Public Transit would also be effected as the 24 Divisadero and the 67 Bernal Heights uses Cortland. And also the 9 San Bruno uses Bayshore, and Whereas, Home Depot promises new jobs, it will also put existing (often locally owned) small firms out of business, taking money out of the community and eliminating jobs, and Whereas, Home Depot boasts of its "Union-free" environment having no unions in its 805 stores Therefore, be it resolved that the San Francisco Green Party advise the Board of Supervisors to reject the Planning Commission's approval of Home Depot's EIR - and demand a better deal for the citizens of San Francisco.
