Santa Cruz needs you at 6 pm, Tues., August 23 at 809 Center St., Santa Cruz the City Council chambers.
Don't let the City Council take away your ability to communicate about proposed building projects. The
current purposed objective standards state an appeal hearing is the only way to give input on a proposed project. It costs money to appeal. Here is an example of a public hearing benefiting a project:
"The Habit/Ikes complex public comments succeeded in securing several project changes through the public hearing process to better mitigate adverse impacts on the nearby neighborhood. These included better buffering, traffic management, and facility operations. The developers still were allowed to build basically what they proposed – the modifications did not materially affect their original concepts but resulted in better projects."
Do not let the Santa Cruz City council take away our voice. Attend the 6 pm meeting in person. Those who cannot attend can speak by calling in and watching on Zoom. Directions here:
