Initial study
An initial study and notice of preparation were prepared for the project in December 2018, and a 45-day comment period ran from December 10, 2018, to January 24, 2019.
Based on the initial study findings, a focused environmental impact report was prepared for topics that require further analysis, including air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, noise, population and housing, transportation and traffic and utilities.
As a result of the 2017 settlement agreement between the City of Menlo Park and the City of East Palo Alto, housing and transportation were required to be analyzed.
All environmental documents associated with the project are available for review.
