Prop D Video Release

Hey,

    Keep the faith.   It's only baseball and the Angels could still take out the hated
Yankees and give them their second worst come-back-by-opponent loss since the Sox.

Go Phillies!

You a Niners fan?

> by Assemblymember Isadore Hall (D-Compton) to speed up the construction
> of the long-awaited, environmentally-reviewed Los Angeles stadium
> complex. Specifically, this bill exempts activities associated with the
> development and operation of the stadium complex in the city of Industry
> from the California Environmental Quality Act - essentially cutting
> unnecessary red tape to get shovels in the ground, people to work and an
> NFL team in Los Angeles.
>
> "This is the best kind of action state government can create - action
> that cuts red tape, generates jobs, is environmentally friendly and
> brings a continued economic boost to California," said Governor
> Schwarzenegger. "This legislation allows us to move forward with the
> construction of the nation's greenest football stadium and create
> thousands of jobs."
>
> Construction of the three million square foot stadium complex is
> estimated to create over 18,000 jobs and pump more than $760 million
> into the local economy every year - all without using any taxpayer
> dollars. The stadium complex will provide more than just a stadium; it
> will also include an orthopedic hospital, a movie and live performance
> theater and office and retail space.
>
> In addition to providing the Los Angeles area with a much-needed
> economic boost, this 75,000-seat stadium would be the most energy
> efficient and environmentally sustainable NFL stadium in the country.
> The nation's first Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
> (LEED)-certified stadium will power much of its operations using solar
> panels, landscape its grounds using recycled water and be built into a
> hillside - reducing the amount of steel and concrete used.
>
> This stadium complex has undergone extensive environmental review and
> public comment. In 2004, proponents successfully completed and certified
> an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for a 4.8 million square foot
> project in the area. In 2008, a supplemental EIR was performed for the
> downsized and current proposal that includes the NFL stadium. In each
> case, the developers worked with concerned parties to resolve any issues
> and move forward. This legislation recognizes the thorough environmental
> review already done and clears the way for construction and job creation
> to begin.
