Don't
Be Fooled!
Measure
Q is not
about parks - the little parkland is intended
for project residents
It's
not
about marinas - they're also for project residents
only
And
it's not
about open space - most of the open space is
private marinas
Measure
Q is about changing the law so that this developer can
build 17 skyscrapers full of luxury condos on Redwood
City's Bay Front.

DO think it through!
You'll
find this the wrong project, in the wrong place, being
promoted to us for the wrong reasons.
A
Vote of "NO" on Q is a vote for responsible
growth.
