General meetings (1-6) were identical in content and were designed to give the community an opportunity to identify concerns regarding the project and to talk with project and City staff. These meetings were not required by the EIR process and were not associated with the EIR.

EIR meetings as required by CEQA will be held in the coming months. Check back for announcements of upcoming EIR meetings, or click here to be added to the email list that announces updates to this project. Click here to learn more about CEQA.
