California lawmakers are bulldozing ahead with a costly demolition of the East Annex and a plan to block public access to the West Steps and destroy Capitol Park.
Now is not the time to burden taxpayers with a $1.4 billion debt for the next 30 years. It’s time to increase public safety and save the historic West Steps.
"Taxpayers deserve to know the true cost of the Capitol Annex. Unfortunately, NDAs have allowed the project to be shrouded in secrecy for far too long. This bill will restore transparency and public trust in taxpayer-funded infrastructure projects.”
Hoover's bill AB 2445 would change the annex law and prohibit the demolition of the West Steps for a visitor's center and require any future visitor's center to be placed anywhere else around the state capitol.
Right now, the State Capitol is under construction again.
Save Our Capitol! is working to preserve the historic Capitol and its surrounding Park, including hundreds of irreplaceable trees. Alternatives exist to make the new Annex safe and compatible without spending more than $1.2 billion to excavate the West Steps, build a new parking garage, and rebuild the Annex with an all-glass facade.
