Agenda Item # 3.1 - Ron Kirkish | Received 02/05/2024Prepared comment for Gilroy City Council Meeting on Feb. 5, 2024; during "Public Speaking"
Plan Bay Area 2050 is a collaboration between the "METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION
COMMISSION" [MTC] & the "ASSOCIATION OF BAY AREA GOVERNMENTS" [ABAG]
and is their vision for California's future.
It is also City Councilman Zach Hilton's vision [as one of their foot soldiers in the cause] for
the future for us Gilroyan's.
Their "dvstopian" plan is predicated on issues pertaining to "Racial Discrimination and
Equity", "Housing", "Economy", "Transportation" and the "Environment".
These are all issues of serious concern that are currently being deliberated in our society today,
including our major news outlets; like the San Francisco Chronicle & San Jose Mercury News,
among many others.
What is of major concern is the socialist remedies that the Progressives, including Councilman
Zach Hilton, and the Plan Bay Area 2050 devotee's are intending to force on us residents, and
all Californian's, using tactics like racial animus; among other progressive tactics; and all at a
cost of over $1.4T as they work to incrementally impose the plans provisions on all of us
Californians over the next 30 years.
Over the next several meetings of the City Council, I am going to "lift the hood and expose" to
all of you, and the residents of our community, the provisions specified in Plan Bay Area
2050.....and I'm very sure you will be shocked to learn the truth about this plan that
Councilman Zach Hilton insists is necessary to lead Gilroy into the 21st Century.
Bir, Ronald L. Kirkish,
Resident of the City of Gilroy
