Rowdy Protester at Plan Bay Area Meeting

Celeste Paradise uses her 1 minute of public comment time to sing a protest song in frustration at the “Plan Bay Area” meeting in Oakland California before her microphone was abruptly cut off.

Plan Bay Area is a $280 billion plan styled after the United Nations “Agenda 21” green agenda of their version of global “sustainability” principles in 1992, and signed by presidents Bush (42) and Bill Clinton as the direction for America to follow. A coalition of liberal and conservatives formed to fight the plan for the 9 counties in the SF Bay Area. The plan was approved after a two year battle.

Local Zoning Laws Attacked in Westchester

“A number of years ago some less than intelligent politicians took some money from the U.S. Federal Housing and Urban Development Agency and thought they could use the money without fulfilling the obligations that come with it.”

Zoning laws are not a violation of civil rights!

From Rosa Koire

Rosa Koire describes what Plan Bay Area would do to her state. It is the same everywhere.

“This fight is not local — it is national. The United States is undergoing a radical transformation as hundreds of regional plans are approved by complicit or ignorant city councils and county supervisors. These plans are called Sustainable Ohio, PlaNY, Granite State Future, One Valley One Vision, Power of 32, Vision 2050, Blueprint, Focus, One Region, Seven50 — look around for it in your town. Plan Bay Area/ One Bay Area is the name for the Plan in the San Francisco nine county 101 city area. This plan is similar to all of the regional plans in the nation — it calls for high density residential/mixed use (Smart Growth) transit oriented development in the center of every city and town, development that will be subsidized by your tax dollars. Regional plans are called ‘living documents’ and are designed to change every 4 years — updating is what they call it. These plans become more restrictive every time.

Plan Bay Area is different. It is your future if you don’t stop it.

Plan Bay Area is the most radical, damaging regional plan in the United States. We believe it is the template, the model, for the rest of the Plans. Plan Bay Area identifies Priority Development Areas and Priority Conservation Areas and establishes quotas. Plan Bay Area requires 80% of all future residential development and 66% of all future commercial development to be constructed in just 4% of the land area in nine counties and 101 cities. Hundreds of thousands of acres will be undevelopable. Land that is inside of urban growth boundaries. Urban land. This will devastate land values and land use for generations.

Plan Bay Area places a de facto building moratorium on all rural property in all nine counties. Plan Bay Area says that 100% of development must be in urban areas. Plan Bay Areas calls for 0% — zero — of non-farm development in rural areas.

Plan Bay Area is creating the ‘islands of human habitation’ called for in UN Agenda 21. Restricting development to high density multi-story apartments and condos in the center of your city while imposing new zoning codes that don’t allow for anything else, your government is redesigning the future. You are paying for it. If you object you’ll be ignored, shamed, ridiculed, called a racist, a NIMBY, selfish, and a patriot. When did ‘PATRIOT’ become a bad thing? When regionalization/globalization began erasing your jurisdictional boundaries. Your city, county, state, and ultimately, federal boundaries.

Plan Bay Area empowers regional unelected boards as the governing body for the ‘region.’ Through federal mandates the money for infrastructure, eminent domain, land development, and transportation transformation comes into your ‘region.’ The money is managed and distributed by a regional board — the metropolitan planning organization (MPO) and council of government (COG).

You’ll see grant money from the Partnership for Sustainable Communities (HUD, EPA, DOT), and from private foundations partnering with government. Local governments starved for funds and directed by state legislation reach for these grants without realizing the consequences.”

Yes This Can Happen in NH

This is a perfect example of what can happen when sustainability grants are enforced by unelected regional boards. Frankly, if people wait until this point it may be too late.

From Tom DeWeese, property rights activist:

Jennie Granato, a resident and tax-paying citizen of Montgomery County, Ohio, has found herself without a front yard and very little to show for it.

Because the Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission (MVRPC), as part of a $5M bike path extension, has begun to seize up private property for their “essential” project, including almost the entirety of Miss Granato’s front lawn.

The bike path will come within seven feet of her front door!!

The bike path is being forced by the MVRPC, a non-elected regional planning commission that is driven by federal Sustainable Development grant money – with no input from local residents or property owners. The local country commissioners and the township trustees are helping to enforce this program.

Jennie and her family own a historic farm outside Dayton, Ohio. They have tried to negotiate and reason with this unelected planning commission. But the MCRPC has done nothing but ignore her pleas. And they have offered her only a pittance of compensation for this taking of her land.

The fact is that Jenny and her family still own this property – YET the township has already come in and removed trees and dug up the ground!

It’s her property!!!

Again – the bike path is going through her property only 7 feet from her front door!

The Granato’s house is a 150 year old farmhouse that a study said “lacked historic integrity”. Apparently that makes it okay to seize the privately owned property in front of it and pave over the entire front lawn.

And now a great tragedy has occurred as Jennie has tried to fight this outrage. Just days ago, as the government bulldozers arrived and started their destruction of the front yard, Jennie’s 85 year old mother became so upset over the injustice of government ramming a bike path into her front door of her private home, she suffered a heart attack and died.

Is this how our government now treats law abiding American citizens?

The MVRPC is an unelected agency. Neither Jennie nor any of her neighbors voted to institute the agency or its policies.

There was no vote for this bike path.

There was no referendum on the ballot to approve this project or the spending of the tax dollars.

Yet the MVRPC has imposed itself on privately owned property, giving the owner no say in the matter and giving her virtually nothing in exchange for the land they are taking away.

This is why regional planning is so dangerous. County planners and commissioners see nothing wrong with seizing up private property with little compensation to the owners in the name of “public good”. There is no world in which a bike path through your neighbor’s front yard is “essential”. If we allow governmental and non-governmental agencies to dictate “public good” at the expense of individuals and their property, they will trample all over our rights

The American Policy Center has issued warning after warning about the dangers of Sustainable Development and the enforcement of top down control through non-elected boards and regional government. Here it is in all of its raw outrage.

Take a good look America! Jennie’s tragedy will be that of every American property owner…

This is what is happening all over the country. If you have been following Girard at Large, you know that something similar is about to happen in Pinardville, unless it is stopped.

It’s All About Sovereignty

Our federal government, as it should be clear to all now, is devoted to bringing about world government. If you follow the Twitter account for the US State Department you can see that all they care about is the global agenda.

No-United-Nations

Our country to them, is divided into 10 regions, not states, the very same as the UN sees us.

And same as the planners like Andres Duany who think Miami and Cuba are a region, and Texas and Mexico are one and the same.

As war criminal Kissinger said, anyone who opposes this “international order” is a terrorist.

Many of us have been saying this since 1980 — our sovereignty is the key issue and has been compromised since we allowed the central banks (Federal Reserve) to take over in 1913. It’s done nothing but go downhill from there for our nation state, including the formation of the intrusive United Nations, who fancies itself the world’s governmental seat.

Now, no one is laughing.

It’s coming home to roost, people are seeing Agenda 21 at their doorsteps, and are now not so quick to say it’s a ‘conspiracy’.

SMARTGRID: The Coming Technocracy

Read about a utopian world where all energy usage is controlled from a central point, even your thermostat and well.

Smart Grid

From the Tea Party website we find this:

Please call or write to your Senators and Congressmen to express your opposition to the HR2685 Smart Grid Advancement Act of 2013

This bill will make it mandatory to create the Smart Grid and require every state to join and put a Smart Meter on every house. We will also end up paying for other countries to join the Grid. If you think NSA was watching everything you do now, just wait until this Grid is developed.

The Grid will essentially make the connection between the three countries as part of the NAU. This will effect all water, electrical, and gas distribution (including free standing wells).

The group that is promoting this is called Smart Grid Interoperability Panel or SGIP and it is headed up by a long time leader within the UN.

PLEASE OPPOSE HR2685 (Electric Grid)
PLEASE SUPPORT HR75 (Get the US out of the UN)

Here are some excerpts from the bill, compliments of http://www.stopocsmartmeters.org/

(1.) Section 2 (4) defines Load-serving entity as an entity that “provides electricity directly to retail consumers with the responsibility to assure power quality and reliability, including such entities that are investor-owned, publicly owned, owned by rural electric cooperatives, or other entities.” In other words, all electricity providers.

(2.) Section 5 (a) says “each load-serving entity, or, at the option of the State, each State with respect to load-serving entities that the State regulates, shall determine and publish peak demand reduction goals for any load-serving entities that have an applicable baseline in excess of 250 megawatts.” In other words every provider has to reduce the amount of electricity provided.

(3.) Section 5 (c)(4) says that “…peak demand reduction goals shall provide that…” “…are realistically achievable with an aggressive effort to deploy Smart Grid”

(4.) Section 5 (d) says Each load-serving entity shall prepare a peak demand reduction plan through either/and “direct reduction in megawatts of peak demand through energy efficiency measures or use of a Smart Grid”. This will be forced through rationing and price increases.

(5.) Section 6 changes key wording in the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Wording changes:
“striking ‘reduce energy consumption during the 4-year period beginning on the date of enactment of this Act’ and inserting ‘increase energy efficiency and to adopt Smart Grid technology and practices’.” “inserting after subparagraph (C) the following: ‘(D) purchasing and utilizing equipment that includes Smart Grid features and capability’ ” “by inserting ‘and smart’ after ‘efficient’ and by inserting after ‘products’ the first place it appears ‘, including products designated as being smart appliances’.”

(6.) PEAK DEMAND REDUCTION- The term ‘peak demand reduction’ means the reduction in annual peak demand as compared to a previous baseline year or period, expressed in megawatts (MW), whether accomplished by–

(A) diminishing the end-use requirements for electricity; RATIONING AND PRICE INCREASES

(B) use of locally stored energy or generated electricity to meet those requirements from distributed resources on the load-serving entity’s customers’ premises and without use of high-voltage transmission; or

(C) energy savings from efficient operation of the distribution grid resulting from the use of a Smart Grid.

Bay Area Residents Sue to Stop Plan Bay Area Regional Plan

Rosa Koire, national speaker and author of the book “Behind the Green Mask” is planning on suing Plan Bay Area.

She compares the apparent philosophy of the program to what went on in Nazi Germany:

‘All property is common property. The owner is bound by the people and the Reich to the responsible management of his goods. His legal position is only justified when he satisfies this responsibility to the community.’ ~ Ernst Huber, official Nazi Party spokesman, 1933

Nazi Land Philosophy:

‘The issue of land ownership is secondary; what counts is the issue of control. Private citizens, therefore, may continue to hold titles to property–so long as the state reserves to itself the unqualified right to regulate the use of their property.’ ~ Leonard Peikoff, The Ominous Parallels, 1982

Koire says:

“Starting in July 2013, rural county land will be prohibited from building anything except agricultural structures. No homes.

Starting in July 2013, 7 MILLION PEOPLE will be subject to restrictions on where and how they live and travel in the SF Bay Area.

Starting in July 2013, 80% of residential development and 66% of all commercial development FOR THE NEXT 27 YEARS will be restricted to very limited locations in just a few cities in the Bay Area.

PLAN BAY AREA will devastate the Bay Area for more than a generation.

PLAN BAY AREA is a template for the rest of the nation.

No matter where you live this plan will impact you.”

You can read the larger explanation on this page. It is the same everywhere.

Master Planner Admits Regionalism is Fascism But It Works

In this short video from our friends at American Coalition for Property Rights, you will hear clips from a speech by Master Planner Andres Duany where he admits what Florida’s “Seven50” plan intends to do. Keep in mind, ALL “sustainability” plans that are formulated under HUD grants are ONE AND THE SAME with regard to goals.

Having listened to Duany’s whole two hour presentation, the Mayor of Vero Beach gave his frank opinion on what he heard… you’ll see why Vero Beach wants nothing to do with the Seven50 program and opted out of it. If you have time to listen, following that clip is an interview with Phyllis Frey, former commercial pilot and Chair of the American Coalition for Property Rights where she talks about what is driving plans like Seven50.
