Further Hurdles Arise at Navy Broadway Project

SAN DIEGO-The $230-million project has a potential stumbling block to clear as the Navy Broadway Complex Coalition plans a County Grand Jury complaint against the Centre City Development Corp.

SAN DIEGO-The $230-million Navy Broadway Complex project, which is the largest undeveloped site in the Downtown area, has another obstacle in its way—one that is major or being blown out of proportion, depending on whom you ask.

The Navy Broadway Complex Coalition (NBCC), a watchdog organization, is in the process of filing a complaint with the County Grand Jury against the Centre City Development Corp (CCDC). The coalition met with city officials yesterday before holding a press conference. The coalition’s attorney Cory Briggs said he had “no belief CCDC has the public’s best interest at heart. They are rolling out the red carpet for developers.”

At the center of the latest complaint are concerns over NBCC’s CEQA appeal, which was to be heard today, but has been postponed to Nov. 6, “without our approval,” says coalition officials. The coalition wants new seismic and traffic studies performed at the Navy site. The developers are currently going on a 1991 study.
