Interim Planning and Building Director Sandra Meyer updated the Planning Commission on Jan. 24 about the environmental-review schedule for three large projects under city review.
Meyer said draft EIRs for the Kortum Ranch and Yellow Rose projects are being prepared and are anticipated to be published for public review in spring 2024. She also said the city expects to receive a wildfire evacuation analysis from consultant Ferron Piers in the coming month to inform the project analyses.
For the 2565 Grant Street subdivision, Meyer reported that a draft EIR is likewise under preparation and is anticipated to be released for public review in late 2024. Staff is still collecting information for that analysis, she said.
The director said these studies will inform later hearings where the Planning Commission and the public can review project-level environmental impacts, mitigation measures and required findings. No EIRs were published at the time of the Jan. 24 meeting and no specific project approvals were decided at this session.
