A Q&A with Navneet Aron, who embarked on an eight-day hunger strike over the plight of developers.
Aron says he was forced into action after the city of Sunnyvale and the county of Santa Clara told him to temporarily halt construction on the 18 luxury townhomes he’s building at a development called Aron Place. According to an agency spokesperson, the city issued the work stoppage after discovering Aron had failed to comply with specific health and safety standards and did not have a current contract with an environmental consultant, as required.
The city issued a work stoppage on Jan. 20, 2023. To restart work, Aron was told he had to submit a plan for keeping future residents safe, including additional testing. He began his hunger strike on Feb. 3, and submitted a formal compliance plan on Feb. 10, the last day of his protest. The county approved the paperwork on Feb. 14, and the city lifted Aron’s work stoppage order the next day.
My routine was in the morning, get some water and coffee in my system so that I can be functional, have another coffee before going to city hall, have water while I'm sitting there, and have chewing gum when I feel hunger pangs. I had maybe six or seven strips of chewing gum throughout the day, another coffee around 3 o'clock, and one before bedtime. I would have a feeling of the most hunger and cramping and stuff around then.No, I was having a little bit of cream.
