      <![CDATA[It's ironic that you are writing this piece, when one of your correspondents, Steven Tavares, uses his blog - and the East Bay Express - almost exclusively to launch political attacks against specific candidates. His attacks are almost never on a candidate's record, but on private actions and personal traits.

      <![CDATA[Mr. Gammon, well known for his previous promotion of big (i.e. 75 feet tall) development in West Berkeley, and in particular the Peerless project, has again got it wrong; twisting the actual content of Measure T in deriding opponents.<br>
<br>
Gammon levels the charge of "false and misleading" without backing up his assertions, nor has he bothered to discuss the issues with members of the NO on T campaign.<br>
<br>
"Improve Aquatic Park" is the campaign slogan for Yes on T. Gammon seems to think that this is just fine, while saying that "Save Aquatic Park" is false and misleading. Both statements represent nothing more than opinions: Yes on T believes that expanded development rights for sites on the Park will provide funds to improve the Park; NO on T believes that excessive development will have a negative impact on the Park's ecological and recreational resources.<br>
<br>
Gammon gets the "truth" wrong; saying "the Berkeley City Council had specifically exempted sites next to Aquatic Park", when it is the specific development standards ('protections') that were referred back to the Planning Commission for recommendations to Council; after the vote.

      <![CDATA[As the Save West Berkeley/No on T website <a href="http://www.savewestberkeley.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.savewestberkeley.org/</a> clearly  indicates, opposition to Measure T was not, as Mr. Gammon claims, entirely based on the measure's threat to Aquatic Park. Along with that threat, the No on T campaign publicized the damage to the environment--including gridlocked streets and worsened pollution--from the allowable new development (all documented by the City's own Environmental Impact Report); and the measure's deregulation of land use in most of West Berkeley and likely inflation of rents and consequent displacement of long-established small businesses, artists and artisans.

      <![CDATA[It's not that the zoo is run by "corporate types," it's the whole process by which public tax money is simply handed over to an unaccountable nonprofit board, which is not actually very constrained in how it can spend the dough. Glad to see A1 is failing in preliminary results at least.
