Pressures and damage to the environment results with overbuilding. Unfortunately, the City officials have solely focused on the building aspect while plans and programs to mitigate increased traffic and expand infrastructures, facilities, and services to meet the needs of an expanded working and resident population have been inadequate, if not nil. Listed below are the environmental issues we raise.

(1)  Traffic Problems

          Additional traffic caused by these projects will gridlock Foster City streets.

(2) Pest Infestation

        When the ground will be dugged so deep during the construction of the numerous planned towers, swarms of rats 
        which are underneath Foster City land will come out and infest the community. The rodents on the current site will 
        seek new homes during the demolition and excavation phase.

(3) Community Disruption with Prolonged Construction

        With over 36 new buildings proposed to be built in the course of the next few years, the residents will have to 
        endure major disruptions and inconveniences to their lives.     
       
       
(4) Other Environmental Hazards

        Overbuilding results in increased levels of noise and pollution.
