Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors: Deny the Special Use Permit for the Creekside Memorial Park Cemetery
The Issue
The proposed Creekside Memorial Park Cemetery is not a compatible land use for the Tassajara Valley. It would be an urban-scale development in an area that is zoned for agriculture. It would also put structures on a prominent ridge and use excessive and unsustainable amounts of water. And it is not even needed, since existing nearby cemeteries have enough capacity to meet the Tri-Valley burial needs for the foreseeable future.
