CEQA is being hijacked. It could be rival developers; it could be Fremont vs. Newark; or it could be your neighbor who doesn't like the person who just made an offer on your house.
The process is politely called "greenmail" -- a term for using the laws of the land for legal extortion. Wrong? Yes. Illegal? Unfortunately, no.
The problem is that when CEQA is hijacked for non-environmental purposes, everyone suffers. It wastes time and money without improving the environment as was originally intended.
