During the town hall, residents repeatedly interrupted Sramek and shouted out their lack of faith in Wall Street trader-turned-novice developer. One of the most contentious moments came when Marge Grow-Eppard, a member of the Miwok tribe, said Sramek had disregarded the region’s indigenous population and would “cement over” Native American burial grounds.
“What about the Native American graves that you’re going to be excavating and building on without even consulting us, the natives of this land?” she said. “This is very disrespectful for us, and I’m sick of developers coming in and we don’t know nothing.”
Sramek said he was a relative newcomer to the US, with only a decade in the country.
“I could not have done anything to your people,” he said.
You’re doing it right now you fucking moron, one of said people is in front of you asking about the graves you’re planning to desecrate!
