The Big Wave draft Environmental Impact Report has been released for public comment. The San Mateo County Planning Director is giving the Midcoast the minimum allowable CEQA review period, 45 days including the Thanksgiving holiday. If you would like to request additional time to review the three telephone book thick volumes please go to the Stop Big Wave website.
Last week the Big Wave attorney delivered a letter to the County refusing to put up story poles during the CEQA public comment period. It looks like the community may not see any story poles at all.
If you would like to read a printed copy of the DEIR please got to the HMB Library and ask the librarian for all three volumes. Or read the DEIR on the County website.
I hope to see you at the upcoming DEIR Community Meetings and the Planning Commission Hearing on Nov 18th.
