FISCAL IMPACT:
None
BACKGROUND:
On June 5, 2007, the Board of Supervisors authorized the Department of Conservation and Development to undertake a General Plan Amendment study relating to multiple parcels in an underutilized industrial area of North Richmond (County File: GP#07-0008). The purpose of the study was to evaluate changing the General Plan land use designations from Heavy Industry (HI) and Light Industry (LI) to residential, commercial, and potentially public uses in support of a proposed master planned development. The General Plan study area is bounded by 3rd Street to the west, the Union Pacific Railroad tracks to the east, Wildcat Creek and San Pablo Creek. An aerial photograph of the study area has been attached to this report.
