What is the Citys role in the proposed project?
The property is within the City of San Carlos and therefore the City has the responsibility to review and consider the application proposed by the developer. As part of the review, the City analyzes the environmental impacts from the project, resulting in an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The City also considers the design of the project and has hired an architectural consultant to evaluate the plans and provide the City with feedback. The City utilizes an economic consultant to peer review any fiscal impacts from the project. The project will be considered by the Planning Commission and City Council in a public review process. In sum, the City’s role is to review and coordinate input on the various impacts of the development on the City.
