How it got here
The legislation originated from a proposed expansion project at Heritage on the Marina, prompted by the need for additional residential care suites and improvements to existing facilities.
Heritage on the Marina submitted an application to the Planning Department for the proposed project at 3400 Laguna Street, seeking CEQA determination.
The Planning Department published the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) for the project, initiating a public review period.
The Planning Commission certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the project, allowing for the demolition of two buildings and construction of two new ones.
An appeal was filed against the certification of the FEIR by Tania Albukerk, representing Save the Marina's Heritage, citing concerns over the project's impact on the neighborhood.
The Planning Department confirmed that the appeal was filed in a timely manner, allowing it to proceed to a public hearing.
The Board of Supervisors scheduled a public hearing to consider the appeals regarding the FEIR, Conditional Use Authorization, and Certificate of Appropriateness.
