Eureka City NIMBY lawsuit: Multiple California environmental agencies call BS

2023.04.08 17:40 Quercus408 Eureka City NIMBY lawsuit: Multiple California environmental agencies call BS

In a press release by the California Environmental Protection Center, along with mutiple other state and local environmental groups, including the Northcoast Environmental Center, Humboldt Bay keeper, and the Redwood Coalition for Climate and and Environmental Responsibility, these groups have read the lawsuit filed by the nascent nimby group "Citizens for a Better Eureka", and have come to the unanimous conclusion that this lawsuit is, and I quote, "Bullshit".
"Not only is the lawsuit frivolous, but it actively undermines much-needed housing and climate action...
"...The lawsuit is based on the absurd claim that building housing on a few downtown parking lots will lead to an array of impacts ranging from traffic congestion to business closures and violent crime. In fact, decades of research and evidence demonstrate that exactly the opposite is the case...
"...Even if this weren’t the case, the types of “impacts” imagined by the petitioners are legally excluded from being considered under [California Environmental Quality Act]...
"...The petitioners either lack a basic understanding of both the planning profession and the law, or just believe that they can get their own way regardless of the facts."
Link to the press release on Redheaded Black belt: https://kymkemp.com/2023/04/07/environmental-groups-say-efforts-to-use-environmental-law-in-attempt-to-block-affordable-housing-is-bs/
We all know why these people are filing the lawsuit. Thankfully, it is becoming clear that they are failing to make their case. However, challenging affordable housing development in California by petitioning CEQA has become a commonly abused NIMBY tactic in California such that the state legislature has considered rolling back the scope of CEQA or repealing and replacing it entirely. If this lawsuit is thrown out, it will further provide precedence against using CEQA to manipulate local planning. I hope they go down in flames.

There was a 4th year Cal Poly Humboldt student who was killed in Arcata on Alliance Road while walking with her friend and dog yesterday. Her name was Camile; her dog also died, and the other victim went to the hospital. I wanted to share a link to Camile's GoFundMe in case anyone here would like to contribute to it or share it on social media or elsewhere. I have confirmed that this GFM page is legit (with her brother, ref: Redheaded Blackbelt via Fb), and that the funds raised will go to the family to help pay for her burial. Thank you, my Friends, Neighbors, and Community.

2022.05.05 23:37 ColdBlackWater A subreddit chapbook: a couple dozen more or less Fortean poems, including a good many parodies, satires, lampoons, burlesques, versions, that sort of thing, as well as other what-have-you -- nothing of consequence, occasional writing and latelife juvenalia

All but one written to fill various needs of Reddit subs with which I was involved, none of them this one.
.
Sons of Noah
.
We all of us are going down
A very long and very old road,
Sea monsters sidling in sloughs
Beside us, keeping track,
Gliding down the riven waters,
Their gilled heads bobbing to birdsong.
The wonder of forestry is that lamp you found
And the coffin nails that spilled from heaven,
Exactly the sort we need to build the ark.
.
Goodnight Moon: A Prequel
.
There was a fox there
With red hair,
A platform, a tank,
Six dozen hula-hoops
And a bear.
Some people named Throckmorton,
A shy man -- Bobby Gorton,
And a rusted old sink
In a chair.
Spring came the rain --
In winter, propane --
Four snakes, a man-child, and a mare.

The Rain It Raineth Every Day
.
I hadn't noticed this in my Book of Allusions
At least not lately
Though I suspect it's still back there somewhere:
It was this, it was Laurie Anderson, and she said
What Fassbinder film is it? The one-armed man
Comes into the flower shop and says
What flower expresses 'days go by,'
And they just keep going by endlessly, endlessly
Pulling you into the future, days go by endlessly, endlessly
Pulling you into the future?
.
And you said,
"Why,
All of them."

If Frost Had've Had a Sweet Tooth
.
Some say the world will end in Atomic Fireballs,
Some say in a large cherry Icee.
From what I've tasted of hard, cinnamon-flavored candies,
I hold with those who favor the former.
(Jolly Rancher Cinnamon Fire will also do the trick.)
But for sheer brain-freeze? Holy fuck.
The Icee will sufficee.

A Ghost Unknown
.
This is the ghost,
These are the bones,
Of all that I could be,
Collapsed in the end
Like charnel, my friend,
The ghost of that which was me;
Don't stir them up and if they groan
Let it mean less than nothing to you,
A vision of futility --
The ghost of a day long past due.
And if I choose to walk the night
And with autumn winds make moan,
Pretend not to see that this was me.
Let me stay a ghost unknown.
.
Lateness of the Hour
.
I know you remember that night we fought the Civil War
(Or, rather, that night we watched it being fought)
In the December cold on Mt. Oread, by the football field,
Our breaths wrapping the trees like exuberant ghosts
As we wound down Tennessee Street then across to Mass,
Where the deli windows were ice bright, like presents,
And "Pretty as You Feel" played on the jukebox.
(What was that note you found?
"Perhaps an extraordinarily fuzzybear"?)
Remember that old fellow we saw, trying
To break into the stadium as we passed?
That was me, that was my ghost.
That was the future.
The future is vast.
.
These Our Coyotes
.
The order of the day is a mischief of coyotes,
Small breaths yipping in the silver night;
Out there somewhere in back of your house
The horizon lines shimmer in the moonlight
And the pedestals of silence sink like glycerin
As nature's roll call proceeds apace,
Awaiting the sun's bright face.
Where will you go, our coyote mischiefs,
Where will you go and what mischiefs to know?
It's three a.m. -- I hear them clear, calling
Sounding out what the daylight will show.
.
Death Comes to the Arms
.
Across the silk pillows your hollow head lies;
I see it distinctly, though scores of blue flies
Pour forth from the neck wound the butcher knife made;
To stifle the smell there is aerosol Glade.
Oh why did I do it? What came over me?
To seek the truth further I had Ruth to tea
And asked her, Ruth darling, how I, seeming good,
Sawed into his spine like years-old driftwood?
Ruth pondered, sipped oolong, gave me a quick smooch
And patted the head of Sir Bosco, my pooch.
We must be brave, Leila, she finally said;
Let's face it: friend Stephen won't stop being dead.
Now time ticks by slowly and likely it stops
As soon as the Arms fills with hard-bitten cops.
.
Oh qui pourrait baiser cette pute infidèle
.
Oh who will have my apple dish I'm baking on the stove
And who will brave the waves and steer my boat into the cove
And who'll recite resplendently in this our sylvan grove
And we'll still make Muskogee in the maw-nin'.
.
Oh who will fasten these my beads around my snow-white neck
And who will tilt my chin just so and give my lips a peck
And who'll be drunk and vomit up on this my polished deck
And we'll still make Muskogee in the maw-nin'.
.
Oh who will dance like Nuryev until the midnight chimes
And who will pistol-whip the ones who summoned forth the mimes
And who'll be so good to divvy up this coke into neat dimes
And we'll all make Muskogee in the maw-nin'.
.
The Something Motion
.
Draw a window
and now draw
something
in the window:
.
a blue sun,
such as a child
might draw.
What color are the clouds
.
and what color
are the trees?
See something
that moves,
.
moving behind the trees.
.
What color is
the something motion?

'Cause I'm as Free as Free Verse Now (and This Verse You Cannot Cha-a-ange)
.
Cap'n Ronnie, sky pilot's awaiting you boys still
And straining to hear whining engines of that big ol' aeroplane a-flying
So low over old Miss, but can only sense
Wings cartwheeling through the forest at midnight, startling the jackrabbits:
Steve and Cassie Gaines's folks are getting nervous, they ain't been home in years,
And the Top 40 charts remain untroubled by singles from you boys this century.
Ooh That Smell's a bleach-boned eight track in the trunk of my Chevy Nova,
Splayed out on its rims in woods
Beyond Jacksonville, bumblebees in that patch of daisies Mama loved.
Gimme three steps back in time
And I'll punch Neil Young square in his Canuck snoot,
Set off bottle rockets phew! phew! phew! into that starry Southern sky,
Take a big old slug of whiskey --
And I will weep for all that's gone.

A Sonnet of Morning Prayer
.
O Morning! thou puff of OPIUM SMOKE when hazy,
How I longe to bee TREE BRANCHES scraggling thy softe sky,
Or anon, juniper berries fed to yonder snake:
The veiled harlots of TUNISIA bow to thy wisdom;
The Sun splits its beam through thy proclivities,
And The Moon hides in ABJECT SHAME ‒-
O Cousin Moon, weep thee not, all is forgot!
The grasse, a-green in thy first blush, coils uneasy,
And the jackals in the HILLS ABOVE call down wrath
On an hundred tiny villages on cliffs atop SALTY SEAS.
Spare us thy rod, Mother Morning, do hit us not
In our EXTREMITIES with thy fists, nor look askant
When we set foote in hobnail and hobble-hop to market,
Loose change a-jingle in our pockets, OUR SMILES worn uneasy.

The Disillusionment of 9:30 P.M. Central
.
The floors are a-twist with white candy wrappers.
None of them are red, with a Twizzlers logo;
None of them are green and arrived bearing spearmint;
None are multi-colored or contained candy corn.
None once held peanuts -- allergies, man!
Only, here and there, a stone-drunk redhead,
Her head afloat in seas Aegean,
Plays bongos in bed with Allen.

That Summer
.
Somehow it was already Thursday
In the house behind the hill --
That summer swept the days down,
And passed as we stood still.
In fact it was already autumn,
And the leaves began to fall
Fast -- and then fast -- and then faster,
And drowned us in Silence's pall.
In fact the day's done and now darkness
Haunts the house behind the hill.
One could say that the seasons are over
Though that summer resides there, still.
.
Donston Maidens
.
Sometimes dancing, all a tip-toe, sometimes singing in the rain
The maids of Donston, the Donston maidens
Surge through its streets, then back again.
You must have heard them, from your meadow, in the still of summer grass
Must have seen them, all a-shadow, as the clouds went rolling past.
Their sweet singing, in the treetops, where they floated carelessly
The maids of Donston, the Donston maidens
Sang and danced, and set us free.
.
Masefield's 'Sea Fever,' After Several Rum Drinks
.
I must go down to the streets again, to the streets full of shrieks and cries,
And all I ask is for one old Crip, and a Blood neither fair nor wise;
And a pistol's bark, and a siren's song, and a summer noon that's baking,
And six rogue cops, and four dead johns, and a hooker's heart that's breaking.
.
I must go down to the streets again, when summer nights make moan,
And all I can see is a dead junkie OD'd in the Combat Zone;
And all I can ask is for crappy verse -- some Masefield to parody
Like this old one -- so full of itself, and some bullshit "down to the sea."

Who Murdered the Mall Rat? (With Apologies to Henry Treece)
.
Who murdered the mall rat,
The pimply young mall rat?
Who murdered the mall rat,
The mall rat named Ruth?
I, said the kiosk,
The gaudy red kiosk,
I, with my spangles, my rings and my earrings,
I murdered the mall rat.
I took the mall rat and what good I did --
Let's go see Porky's at the 8-plex, I said.
.
Who killed the mall guard,
The overweight mall guard,
Who killed the mall guard,
The mall guard named Al?
I, said the food court,
The clamorous food court,
I with my pizza, my fries and my pasta,
I killed the mall guard,
Then called him a cab.

Who slew my teen years,
My bright silly teen years,
Who slew my teen years
And made me a man?
I, said the Jester, the Spencer's Gifts jester,
I slew your teen years.
They were over too soon.

Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening, Part II
.
Skedaddle, pard; it's three a.m.,
And midnight seems a year ago
And I do not much countenance
My woods watched as they fill with snow.
.
Now I live in Providence.
Farming proved an earthly hell.
I rent this place to Billy Ball
And my sister, Mary Nell.
.
Today I came to kill her man;
His body's in the thorny gorse.
And I do not much countenance
You and your cart and your little horse.
.
I'll bury him deep in the woods tonight --
It's lovely there, so very dark,
And stand and weep at the very thought
Of deeds I've done, and outcomes stark.
.
Skedaddle, pard, but write this down:
Never in life should you sojourn here
In snow, in dark, in these woods of mine --
The longest night of the calendar year.

And visited the Grange;

I am your little Vole;
Lift up my Dress -- attach it hence --
And fly me on your Pole.

In supple voice -- with Perfect Tone --

No man is a rodeo; I guarantee this -- write it down.
Every man is a part of the rodeo; in your case, its clown.
If a cowpoke be bucked by a bronco, Wyoming is the lesse;
As well as if a Dakotan were; or a Nebraskan. Lily-livered Easterners too, perhaps.
Each rodeo contestant's death diminishes me because I insure them.
Therefore, send not to know for whom the bull toils; it toils for me.

Belgian Waffle Serenade
.
Oh what has become of that whistling crow?
The pie bird -- the fat one; I would like to know.
His office was sat in the old chimney flue,
And he would not dither if he sang to you.
(Those waffles are famous the wide world around,
Though syrups to soak them no longer abound.)
The pie bird commanded the whole waffle crew
And he'd strut and kerfuffle -- but then out he flew:
No chitchat, no high fives if you are not here,
No passports or visas without you, it's clear,
O bird good of heart; oh where have you flown?
The waffles fall silent when they're left alone.
Oh what has become of that whistling crow?
The pie bird -- the fat one; I would like to know.
.
How We Now Understand the Borden Crimes
.
Lizzie was a wastrel, Lizzie was a thief,
Lizzie robbed a butcher's and stole a leg of beef
Lizze killed her step-mama, Lizzie killed her pa
Lizzie's in the jail now, ha ha ha ha ha.
Bridget was a cutie, Bridget minced around,
Bridget heard the axe fly, and its whistling sound
Bridget was excited, Bridget told a lie
Bridget watched the both of them fall straight down and die.
Emma's on a wassail, Emma's on the town,
Emma is all sis-boom-bah, can't bring Emma down,
Emma is a-tippling, Emma bought the axe
Emma had instructed them on the forty whacks.
.
Patricia, They Are Here
.
Sit still. Let them come. They'll be here. Take my hand.
Got your wand? Don't be dull. They'll appear. Wave it slow.
Hear that sound? Wind in sand? Here they are. Now you know.
Hear that sound? Wind in sand? Here they are. Like we planned.
.
The Silence Appalls
.
The wind was low-pitched as a pendant.
A sweet potato moon
Glowed as it shone thru the window
Like sand in a fiery dune.
.
The trees were dipped in tallow,
The backstairs unlit and night-blue.
We stopped when the noises started --
The apprehension grew.
.
The footsteps were achingly sideways,
The moans were sporadic and small;
We turned from the light to the tapping
At the end of the beveled hall.
.
What next? said a voice, and we heard it:
What next was both cunning and slow,
The sound of an Elder Thing crawling
Down the coal chute in darkness below.
.
What walks on two feet in the daytime
Then slithers and curls round your toes
As twilight traduces the landscape
And fear like a pestilence grows?
.
O mend the black sky with quicksilver,
And stop up the draughts in the walls;
Such secrets continue till daybreak --
Their darkness the silence appalls.
.
Troublefree
.
Were you there at Jeur du Rivre
when Pasquale and the socialists
marched the Mais Square every day?
Do you recall the rains, falling from the cliffs
in bright arcs, not one as wet as the next,
oh my little love: and of their colors, cascading?
