The Plan represents over five years of technical analysis and community engagement to reach this set of recommendations and serves as the foundation for next steps. The study’s preferred alignment is the starting point for detailed engineering and in-depth technical analysis, and there will be additional opportunities for community and BOCC input. If the BOCC adopts the study and the project moves forward, the project will be subject to the guidelines and requirements of the 1041 Land Use Review process.
