For Oakland Mayor Schaaf, NFL Raiders Stadium Deadline Calls For A Superman: Kofi Bonner - Video
For Oakland Mayor Schaaf, NFL Raiders Stadium Deadline Calls For A Superman: Kofi Bonner It is the holiday season, and that means December. For many, this means food, parties, and gifts. For Oakland Raiders fans, and fans of Oakland sports, it means a new stadium plan. While Oakland, and Mayor Libby Schaaf, have always known the NFL gave them the end of 2015 to come up with a plan, the date now is December 3rd and still there has been only talk and no action. Now, we need to have not just a true, doable plan, but we need a developer who can deliver on this. We need Kofi Bonner, the head of Lennar in the SF Bay Area, and one who's development expertise nearly kept the 49ers in San Franciscco, built much of Emeryville and got Pixar Animation to come there, then worked as economic development director in San Francisco and in Oakland, where he was also Interim City Manager– and then he was hired by Carmen Policy (of the same Carson NFL project) to run the Cleveland Browns and build their new stadium, before returning to the Bay Area. But before I introduce Kofi (my friend going back to the Berkeley Planning School in 1985) let me explain and share my own personal hell that I have experienced in just trying to move Oakland to a place where it can build a stadium for the Raiders and for the A's. And without a public subsidy. MORE: http://ift.tt/1lbpuJS
