Description
San Bruno City Council Meeting January 25, 2011 10g. Sustainable Community Strategy
A
A
B
Am
Erin
acting
the
Community
Development
Director?
Thank
you
are
several
years
ago
the
California
Assembly
passed
a
be
32,
which
is
landmark
legislation
in
the
state
of
California
in
an
attempt
to
reduce
greenhouse
gas
gas
emissions.
Another
follow
up
legislation
that
to
help
implement
SB
or
a
be
32
was
Senate
bill
375,
and
what
Senate
bill
375
did
is
require
regions
to
tie
their
land
use
policy
to
their
transportation
policy
for
the
first
time.
B
One
of
the
key
concepts
within
this
register
requirement
for
each
region
to
adopt
a
sustainable
community
strategy
or
an
SCS
in
the
SCS.
The
process
is
being
led
by
a
bag
as
well
as
MTC,
in
conjunction
with
the
Air
Quality
Management
District,
the
bay
conservation
and
development
commission
in
all
the
cities
and
counties
within
the
Bay
Area.
The
primary
objective
of
the
SCS
is
simple,
basically
take
the
three
regional
plans
which
used
to
be
separate,
dockets
and
documents
and
oftentimes
inconsistent
and
make
them
all
consistent
and
release
them.
B
At
the
same
time,
these
three
regional
plans
are
the
regional
transportation
plan,
which
is
released
by
MTC.
The
regional
land
use
plan,
which
is
released
by
a
bag
as
well
as
well
as
the
regional
housing
needs
assessment
which
allocates
housing
units
to
each
cities
within
the
Bay
Area.
Now
this
is
important
for
to
San
Bruno,
for
a
number
of
reasons
and
I
think
the
first
reason
that
it's
important
to
really
show
that
the
City
Council
is
that
we're
on
the
right
track.
B
B
The
purpose
of
this
report
is
to
provide
some
background
into
what
this
process
will
be.
The
process
that
a
bag
and
MTC
have
developed
will
be
a
three
step
process
with
a
lot
of
back-and-forth
with
cities
in
between
the
first
in
February
of
2011
next
month,
the
a
bag
is
going
to
release
the
first
housing
numbers,
and
this
is
going
to
be
known
as
the
vision
statement
and
typically
housing
allocation
numbers
have
three
different
things
that
are
constraint.
B
You
have
your
physical
constraints,
your
mountains,
your
wetlands,
you
have
your
market
constraints,
will
will
be
the
actual
demand
for
housing
and
in
individual
cities,
as
well
as
your
local
policy
constraints.
This
will
only
take
into
consideration
physical
constraints,
so
will
not
look
at
local
policies
will
not
look
at
local
market
conditions.
This
is
it
in
the
perfect
world.
This
is
where
the
housing
would
be
to
reduce
greenhouse
gases.
Obviously
this
is
going
to
end
up
having
some
cities
having
way
too
high
of
housing
allocation
number
or
way
too
low
of
housing
allocation
number.
B
So,
in
the
months
following
the
release
of
this
vision
statement,
cities
will
come
to
the
City
Council,
explain
where
there
may
be
deficiencies
in
their
analysis
and
take
these
back
to
a
bag
for
response.
A
second
more
detailed
scenario
called
the
detailed
scenario
will
be
released
probably
an
early
summer,
and
once
again
this
will
be
taken
back
to
the
city
city
council's
around
the
bay
area
for
response
and,
finally,
a
preferred
scenario
is
going
to
be
released
in
about
this
time
next
year.
B
In
this
preferred
scenario
will
show
where
the
housing
will
go
and
all
the
housing
allocation
numbers
will
be
based
on
this
scenario.
Once
again,
throughout
the
process,
staff
will
peep
City
Council
and
pull
informed.
What
we
are
doing
at
a
sub-region
level.
The
City
Council
adopted
in
the
consent
calendar
for
the
the
for
the
city
to
take
part
in
the
regional
housing
needs
assessment
process.
We
did
this
last
time
as
a
cow.
B
In
fact,
we
were
the
only
county
in
the
state
to
take
part
in
this
process
where
we're
able
to
trade
units
with
other
cities
within
the
county
to
put
housing
units
where
they
make
sense.
We'll
work
with
a
back
through
this
process
also
through
the
Grand
Boulevard
process,
will
meet
with
other
cities
to
make
to
look
where
these
housing
units
should
be
placed
on
a
region-wide
level.
There's
something
called
the
region.
B
Regional
advisory
working
group
I
happen
to
sit
on
this
working
group
representing
san
mateo,
county
planning
directors
on
this,
so
I'm
in
touch
with
a
bag.
All
the
time
we'll
be
able
to
take
back
our
city's
concerns
back
to
a
bag
as
well
as
other
cities
concerns
within
San
Mateo
County.
There
are
a
lot
of
benefits
that
could
come
out
of
this
process,
cities
that
are
doing
it
right
and
that
do
have
plans
that
are
consistent
with
SB
7
SB
375
will
be
eligible
for
more
grants,
especially
related
to
infrastructure
and
infrastructure
improvements.
B
A
lot
of
these
mass
transit
areas
are
in
the
older
urban
core,
where
you
really
do
have
to
plan
for
infrastructure,
because
the
infrastructure
in
our
case
could
be
70
80
years
old
and
pet
has
to
support
newer
housing
development
in
office
development
within
these
areas.
From
a
planning
perspective,
one
thing
that
a
lot
of
the
planners
are
excited
about
a
seacoast
streamlining
review.
I
think
everyone
has
probably
heard
of
projects
like
redwood
city's
project
that
is
being
held
up
by
sequel
litigation.
