“My name is L'Rea Robinson……….. and I support a YES vote on the
Carousel Mall redevelopment ENA. As a proud Teamster and public
employee, I’m proud to stand with my union as it negotiates a Community
Benefits agreement that can guarantee affordable housing, clean
infrastructure, better-paying jobs, and further community input at this
crucial development. Vote yes on the ENA to move this City forward!” I
am a resident of the city of San Bernardino and and employee of the
County of San Bernardino and many of my co workers work for the
county but live elsewhere because of lack of affordable housing. I am
looking to buy a home soon but it will more than likely not be in San
Bernardino but one of the surrounding cities. It is so sad because I love
the city but I do not feel like the city loves me or my family.

Good afternoon Stewards,
If you have registered for the Steward meeting, you should have received an email with the Zoom
link. Please check your emails and let me know if you have not received the link.
Below is some very important information regarding the City of San Bernardino. Please look at
the attached flyer and read the information below:
Local 1932 is on the cusp of negotiating a Community Benefits Agreement securing affordable
housing, better jobs, clean infrastructure, and further community input at the planned
redevelopment of the Carousel Mall in San Bernardino. Developers plan to convert it into a
mixed-use downtown area, but it must occur with guarantees in place!
On Wednesday night, SB City Council will vote on the next part of the development process
— an exclusive negotiation agreement (ENA) between the City and the Developers. This must
happen before Local 1932 and community allies (a coalition called Something Better for San
Bernardino) can proceed on a Community Benefits Agreement. You can help your union get
there by sending this emailed comment to SB City before the Wednesday 4 PM deadline:
“My name is ……….. and I support a YES vote on the Carousel Mall redevelopment ENA. As a
proud Teamster and public employee, I’m proud to stand with my union as it negotiates a
Community Benefits agreement that can guarantee affordable housing, clean infrastructure,
better-paying jobs, and further community input at this crucial development. Vote yes on the
ENA to move this City forward!”
Send the comment to publiccomments@sbcity.org , subject line: Exclusive Negotiation
Agreement
If you a resident of San Bernardino, please note this in your emailed comment.
