SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A Silicon Valley-backed initiative to build a green city for up to 400,000 people in the San Francisco Bay Area has qualified for the Nov. 5 ballot. Voters will be asked to allow urban development on land currently zoned for agriculture. The land-use change is necessary to build the homes, jobs and walkable downtown proposed by California Forever. The registrar of voters will present the results of the count to the county Board of Supervisors in two weeks. Environmentalists and other opponents say the proposed development will have a negative impact on the county’s water resources and air quality.
