When we last saw the El Camino Real Specific Plan, at the end of 2017, Sunnyvale’s City Council had selected a preferred land use alternative from among the four presented for consideration (click on the links for the staff report and  meeting video).  After receiving recommendations from the ECR Plan Advisory Committee (ECRPAC), staff and the Planning Commission, considering input from the online survey and public workshops, hearing input from public speakers at the hearing, and much deliberation, the City Council selected Alternative R PLUS as the land use plan to be studied and developed further. Of the four alternatives, ALT-R PLUS is the land use plan that identified the greatest amount of residential development opportunity along the El Camino Real corridor while still preserving opportunities for additional commercial growth.

After a long hiatus, the City is appointing a new Advisory Committee and will hold the next meeting on January 24th, 6:00 pm in the Neighborhood Room, Recreation Center, 550 E Remington Drive, Sunnyvale, CA 94087

The agenda includes looking at changes in State law that impact the plan, status of the EIR and the ECR Specific Plan.
