DEIR Public Review Period Open through March 12
The South Glendale Community Plan, in development since 2013, will be the official guide for the neighborhoods and commercial districts in Glendale south of the 134 Freeway, including the Downtown Specific Plan. The Plan constitutes the City’s goals and policies for stewardship of the places and people that make up South Glendale. It is intended to revamp the community by shaping positive change and fostering sustainable land use patterns, while balancing the unique character of the community with citywide policies and regional initiatives.
The Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR), a comprehensive document to inform the public of the significant environmental effects of the project, possible ways to minimize significant effects, and reasonable alternatives to the project was recently published.
