Oakland Councilmember Dan Kalb On ITS Phil Tagami Bulk Terminal After Latest Court Win vs City - Video
Oakland Councilmember Dan Kalb On ITS Phil Tagami Bulk Terminal After Latest Court Win vs City Kalb and I talked after the City of Oakland lost its anti-SLAPP lawsuit attempt against developer Phil Tagami and Zennie62Media content client Insight Terminal Solutions. This was the 4th time Oakland lost in court to Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal, but from Kalb's words, Oakland remains firmly against any coal shipments coming through via the bulk terminal. What's strange and concerning about our argument (and I consider Dan a friend so its not at all personal) is that he doesn't seem to care one bit about the Utah coal workers and the need for them to sustain their jobs. The Pandemic has rendered the idea that they can get other jobs a completely stupid one - especially since everyone agrees that Utah will benefit from the Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal. Dan seems too focused only on coal and has zero idea that iron ore is also a bulk commodity that is shipped and used to make steel, worldwide. The Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal, was designed to move bulk commodities in a low emissions way. Why is the City of Oakland only interested in only in banning coal and not iron ore or other commodies that have higher emissioms indexes? And why are trucks allowed to pollute in West Oakland through all of this? And why the love for Tom Steyer, who was a coal investor until he elected to spend millions to turn America away from coal. Given that Steyer's a hedge fund investor, and he's poured millions into California elected officials, it seems like he and people like Utah's Huntsman Family are trying to steer us to favor their businesses - which do not employ coal workers and have higher unemployment rates. Sorry, but something is up. It's wrong to push people out of jobs and onto the street for a problem that can be solved in another way. For me, it's not American. I want to know what the impacted Utah workers think of this? Sorry Dan, you're a great Oakland councilmember, but just plain wrong about the Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal. And what's up with the love for Tom Steyer in this context? Stay tuned.
