The Timeline of BCHD's Attack on Neighbors and Taxpayers

BCHD & PMB LLC PROPOSE OVERSIZED COMMERCIAL BUILDING

For some reason, unknown to Taxpayers, BCHD has always blindsided the public with revised plans for the proposed, privately developed/owned/operated 300,000 sqft, 110-ft tall proposed COMMERCIAL building project. BCHD has 0% ownership.

And while the neighborhoods are ignored by BCHD - BCHD continues to operate in the shadows with PMB LLC, the private developer/owner/operator of the project.

BCHD AND PMB OPERATE IN THE SHADOWS AND DENY TAXPAYER-OWNER RIGHTS

CEO Bakaly has decided that BCHD is a developer, like any other, and that the Taxpayer-Owners that OWN BCHD have no right to participate in the process. Taxpayer-Owners can wait until after BCHD has spent hundreds of thousands more of our tax dollars to file its application at the City of Redondo Beach.

2022 Dec - “What we have is a Master Plan. Let’s reserve judgment until everyone sees what it is exactly we are applying for,” Bakaly said.

Current - BCHD is working with WRC PMB Redondo Beach, our partner for the development and the operation of the Campus, to refine the Phase 1 campus plans and finalize our application for a conditional use permit with the City of Redondo Beach. This is expected in the next 3-6 months. Similar to other projects that apply for a conditional use permit, the public will be able to access the plan when it is submitted to the City.

TAXPAYERS OWN BCHD. IT'S OUR APPLICATION! The documented history of BCHD's blindsides are below:
