Dear San Bernardino City Council and Mayor,
I urge you to vote YES on a moratorium on future warehouse developments. We need a more
sustainable and just regional economy, less air pollution, and better jobs in the region for
workers and residents. Please study the impacts that warehousing has had on the city, its
workers, its residents, and its green space before you approve any more warehouse
developments. Much research suggests that more warehouse developments will likely just
bring more bad jobs for our workers and more pollution and traffic in our communities. Our
communities and workers deserve better than that.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Ellen Reese
