I’ve been struggling to state clearly why Coyote Valley is such a mess of a proposal under the both current and future economic situations. Holly came up with this definition in preparation for materials to present at Nature’s Inspirations, which I think is excellent:
The stated reason to build
Coyote Valley is to bring needed jobs toSan Jose while providing some housing for people employed in. Currently the Bay Area has massive office vacancies, so there is no demand for new office construction. However, if all the office space planned for development there were actually built, there wouldn’t be enough housing. Developing new office space this far south of the city central just serves to exacerbate sprawl south through Coyote Valley Gilroy ,San Benito County and theCentral Valley .
Now to get that understanding through to the decision-makers….
