Mixed-use and Multi-Family Objective Design Standards: Critical Virtual Community Meeting
Virtual Community Meeting: Mixed-Use and Multi-Family Objective Design Standards in San Carlos
The City of San Carlos invites you to a Virtual Community Meeting on Wednesday, November 13, 2024, at 6:30 PM on Zoom to discuss the new Objective Design Standards for future housing projects in the city’s Mixed-Use and Multi-Family zoning districts.
As San Carlos grows and evolves, setting clear and efficient design standards is essential for supporting sustainable development and meeting community needs. Over the past few months, the City has been working with community members, city planners, and design experts to draft preliminary standards aimed at making the development process smoother, more predictable, and more in line with State requirements.
What You’ll Learn and Discuss
- Presentation of Preliminary Standards: City staff and design consultants from Van Meter William Pollack (VMWP) will provide an overview of the draft standards. These standards were shaped by community input, best practices, and careful modeling of potential impacts.
- Your Voice Matters: This is your opportunity to provide feedback, ask questions, and share your thoughts on the proposed standards. The goal is to create design expectations that serve the community, streamline the approval process, and remove constraints that may hinder new housing development.
Why Participate? With housing in high demand, it’s crucial that we plan for the future with clear, practical guidelines that balance growth with quality of life. Your insights can help shape the way new housing projects are designed, ensuring they align with community values and aesthetic standards.
