The WHNC is raising funds primarily to secure specialized legal counsel and expert consultants (such as fire safety and biological experts) to challenge the developer’s attempt to bypass public oversight.

The developer (RW Investments WHCC, LLC) is seeking "streamlined ministerial approval" under AB 2011 and AB 2243. If granted, this allows them to avoid a full CEQA review, public hearings, and City Council oversight. Our goal is to force a discretionary review process, ensuring that the environmental and safety impacts of this 398-unit project are fully scrutinized.
