Default Examiner's Schwab assails Bay Meadows 'Development' Co.

This is progress?
By Dwight Schwab

Just eight months ago, the area was vibrant and clean. The track was paying hefty property taxes and more to the city and county and over 300 workers were feeding their families, living in the community and being a part of society.

Now through sheer greed and stupidity it is all gone. And will this be the poster child for stopping such actions in the future? Will people finally realize enough is enough; that building on every last inch of space is not the answer? Has more tax money (if it ever arrives) made up for all of this?
