Tesla, Inc., the American company that designs, develops, manufactures, and sells electric vehicles (EVs), energy generation and storage systems, and solar panels, with the mission to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy, is looking at building a showroom with 100 charging stations on the corner of Ayers Rd and Clayton Rd in Concord (old Kmart site). The plans call for the existing former Kmart building to be demolished and replaced with 100 Tesla charging stations. The showroom would be situated closer to Clayton Rd, where the old Kmart parking lot currently sits. At only 6,000-square-feet, the new showroom would be about twice the size of the showroom in Walnut Creek. Unlike many other automakers, Tesla does not have dealerships with an inventory of vehicles ready to drive off a lot.
As we previously reported, the site is also being considered for the City of Concord’s Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Rezoning Project, which requires rezoning at least 20 acres in moderate- and high-resource areas for at least 1,000 new multifamily housing units.
QUESTION: Would you rather have a Tesla Showroom or 1,000 multifamily housing units?
Great! That will give us another place to protest the billionaire trying to destroy our country!
Please explain in specifics as to how Mr. Musk is trying to “destroy our country”.
You are free to disagree with what he’s doing (although I’m not sure how one can honestly disagree with rooting out waste, fraud and abuse) but I’d like to understand better how it is you believe he’s “destroying our country”.
Please refrain from hyperbole, rumor and innuendo and use proven facts as your source. Also, references of his attempts at country destruction prior to his choice of candidates in July of 2024 earns extra credit.
Because he is not doing any of those things. He is slashing people jobs in departments Republicans hate and any department that was investigating his businesses
Mike, please expound for us on the vast successes of, for example, the Department of Education since it’s founding.
Thank you.
Any proof of your accusations? Bet not
is this what you are scared of?

Right. That’s quite evident by all the fraud, waste, and abuse they’ve already found and demonstrated! Nobody said it would be easy getting our country back on track. “Most” of the positions being eliminated are bloat. Successful businesses constantly reevaluate and lay off as needed. We see it all the time. We can’t continue to save jobs that aren’t necessary. That’s why we’re trillions in debt. You might try going on the DOGE website. You’ll find they are much more transparent than the criminal democratic (and a few republican) career politicians you choose to follow!
…still nothing from Guido explaining his claims of Elon destroying the country. I’ll be patient and wait a little longer I guess. I implore people to think for themselves, on both sides of the aisle. Guido is merely repeating talking points and has done no critical thinking of his own. THAT is what will destroy our country.
Hey Guido, Biden and his cronies already destroyed America, Trump and Musk are trying to make it better for generations tp come
funny.. a few years ago you people worshiped him. Deranged lunatics with nothing more than identity politics…bought cars not because they liked them but because they could feel special for blindly following charisma. Now trading in their cars because they lost faith in their leader. so dumb. Elon did not change “we all saw that” he is the same as he was (eccentric and smart) you just realized it late.
And, even better, destroying cars belonging to people who have already bought them! Here’s a clue that doesn’t harm Elon! You’re only harming like-minded people. The people who thought like you and jumped on the electric car bandwagon! Just goes to show the lunacy of the left!
I find it a bit hypocritical that liberals are vandalizing Teslas, bought by people who probably care about clean air too. They are attacking their own kind.
Nobody said they have common sense or intelligence
Unfortunately it should be called good sense because if it were common sense more people would have it “it would be common”
They don’t have that either!
they eat their own when they disagree.
Which country is yours Guido?
That just sounds juvenile grow up
Grow up.
You know “Guido” may be a proper name, but in the USA it is also known as an ethnic slur referring to Italians… on par with “Dago” or “Wop”
Don’t think so? Look it up!
I’m offended.
Both. The site can be developed to accommodate multiple uses.
People who vandalize Teslas, need to serve time in prison to think about what they have done.each vandalizm there is a victim who the vandals have hurt. They need to pay for that.
We already have vandalism laws. We don’t need “hate crime” enhancements for the products of African, billionaire, transhumanists.
A few months ago, a Tesla was something owned by the metropolitan elite. Now it’s patriotic?
The reality is that’s it’s rolling surveillance machine. An electric car keeps you on a short tether to the electric grid and can be remotely controlled or turned off. Like digital currency, its widespread implementation would mean the end of our freedom.
Nope it is most definitely a “hate” crime they are destroying somebody else’s property because they hate the maker. Let them tor in prison for 20 years or so put an end to this real quick!
California has the most Teslas. There is no way the DA’s will give harsh convictions for Tesla vandalism. In Red states there will be harsher sentences. But the next time the Dems are in power they’ll reciprocate.
It’s the same logic that got a Martinez couple convicted of a hate crime, when they painted over a BLM mural near the court house. And it’s the same logic that led to J6ers rotting in jail for years.
This country’s political divide is not going to end by playing tit-for-tat lawfare.
agree mostly butt…..
Hate crime
a crime, typically one involving violence, that is motivated by prejudice on the basis of ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, or similar grounds. (aka politics)
Vandalism
action involving deliberate destruction of or damage to public or private property.
Did not see anything here about Hate crime?
Really they are targeting property that they don’t own because the “hate” the maker pretty simple. Hate is what drives their actions.
Let me fix that for you: “African American citizen billionaire.”
Bottom line: Musk in a foreign-born billionaire who has had contracts with every administration starting with Obama’s. When criticized about his reliance on cheap foreign labor and H1B1 visas, he tweeted that his critics should “go f#@% themselves in the face”.
His motto isn’t America First. It is Elon First.
This makes no sense given the demographic in the 94521 and the 94517, as well as cratering popularity of Tesla vehicles.
I call BS. More specifically, April Fools!
Where I live about every other house has a Tesla parked in front. What about where you live?
This location is being considered for rezoning for a maximum of 471 housing units, not 1,000 housing units.
.
Building a showroom here would be counter to the City of Concord wanting all new car dealerships on Concord’s “Auto Row” at Market Street or within Concord’s “Auto District” located between Market Street and I680.
I would rather have the Tesla showroom over 1,000 multifamily housing units.
Yep we do not need more section 8 or asylum seekers
This aligns well with their upcoming plans to build a Tesla manufacturing plant on the Concord Naval Weapons site. In addition to building cars and trucks they will be building charging stations to be deployed across the Bay Area.
April Fools!!
It will be instantly vandalized by those who praise electric vehicles. That’s how
California is.
Yes!
Would love a Tesla showroom and charger there!
I don’t even care that we may get some crazy liberal lefties protesting. It is clear they do not want the waste and fraud exposed, in the government exposed as Elon is doing.
The left is crazier than I even thought before.
No, just… no.
April Fools!
Noticeably, a complete lack of service capability.
Two manager and two sales offices to one customer ‘lounge’
is not good news for a potential vic…I mean customer.
I sure it’ll be fine. 😏
Well I don’t think any of these people were fooling
Well, … if this isn’t an April Fool’s joke, ….
A Tesla Showroom over 1,000 multifamily situations.
Thinking all the protest will calm down once the outlook for the US gets better.
so far all Musk has done is widely cut veterans, lied about the “waste” he’s found – they have revised down virtually all of their claims of waste, and awarded his own companies government contracts.
also Musk is not a citizen. He is a foreign billionaire who believes in Eugenics.
Elon Musk is a US citizen. Elon Musk doesn’t “award contracts”. Elon Musk hasn’t cut anything from veterans. Tesla, Space X, The Boring Company are all US companies. Elon Musk pays more taxes to the federal government than anyone ever has. You have nothing so you lie. And your cult believes the lies
You’re hitting 100%. Virtually everything you said is a lie. And for the record, Planned Parenthood if the promoter of eugenics.
Well, he IS a US citizen since 2002, and he hasn’t awarded any contracts to any person or company, as he lacks the authority to do so.
Any other lies you’d like to post here in case someone reading is stupid enough to believe you?
Glad to see anything other than low-income housing going in there!
ELON MUSK IS THE MAN !! GLAD HES GETTING RID OF THE FRAUDSTERS AND CORUPT GOVERNMENT… FUNNY HOW THEM AND THE LIBERALS THE ONLY ONES MAD
