Hello my name is Devona and I was born and raised in San Bernardino. I
am contacting you regarding the Carousel Mall development.
The Carousel Mall development just came across my radar. I am concerned about
the lack of genienue community input and feedback. If this development opportunity
is truly good for the community at large not just for some. There are several ways to
ensure broad reach and inclusion and one of those is transparency. Giving those
who live and work in this community to have a clear understanding and give
feedback accordingly.Have you all made room for the community to be at the table
to address issues like lack of affordable housing, housing for low income and
homeless residents, sustainability, and good jobs must be included in the project.
I ask that you show your support for community benefits to address the issues I
mentioned above. The city's public monies must go into solving the crisis of
unemployment, housing, air pollution, and investment into resources the community
has needed for decades.
Thank you for taking the time to hear out my concern and request.
Devona Robertson
