Hello,
My name is Tim Hoover and I live in San Bernardino. I am contacting you regarding the
Carousel Mall development. I’m concerned about the the lack of community engagement
regarding this development. I strongly believe that the local community deserves a priority
seat at the table to best navigate the goals for the downtown development. Issues like lack of
affordable housing, housing for low income and homeless residents, sustainability, and good
jobs must be included and take highest priority in this project. I don’t think that this
development should simply be an opportunity for outside business people to come in and
profit off our community without giving anything back. With the multitude of problems facing
our town, I hope that this project can serve as a first step to building our community up and
serving the people in an equitable manner.
Thank you for your time,
Tim Hoover
