Comment 1 by Kevin J. Lansing on Jan 23 at 8:56pm • All my comments •

The Big Wave DEIR is pathetically inadequate. It needs to be revised substantially and then recirculated. Otherwise the County is subjecting itself to the threat of litigation pursuant to the rules set forth in the California Environmental Qulaity Act (CEQA).

Jeff Peck & Co. should be asking for their money back from the consultant that prepared the inadequate DEIR. But then again maybe the consultant was doing just what they were told to do.

Here’s my top 10 list of comment letters linked above that clearly show how the Big Wave DEIR is fatally flawed.

121 - Montara Water and Sanitary District
169 - California Department of Transporation
185 - Pillar Ridge H.O.A.
193 - Committee for Green Foothills
205 - Shute, Mihaly & Weinberger Law Firm
206 - San Mateo County L.C.P.
209 - Granada Sanitary District
213 - California Coastal Commission
230 - MidCoast Community Council
240 - Surfrider Association

Comment 2 by Sabrina Brennan on Jan 25 at 12:45am • All my comments •

I hope Camille Leung provides the Planning Commissioners all the DEIR comment letters and attachments before the Planning Commission Study Session this Wednesday morning.

Planning Commission Study Session: Wed, Jan 27 8:00am
Location: Supervisors Chambers, 400 County Center Redwood City

The Pillar Ridge letter is number 3 on the top 10 list and its excellent. Lisa Ketcham, the Pillar Ridge HOA President spent countless hours reading the DEIR and Facilities Plan. Lisa’s comments are very comprehensive. Thank you Lisa!

The Midcoast Community Council letter made number 9 on the top 10 list. David Vespremi and I stayed up until 5:00am working on the MCC letter. It was like cramming for a final exam. Thank you David for doing the bulk of the writing!

In the end everyone on the MCC with the exception of Neil Merrilees did final edits and unanimously approved the MCC DEIR comment letter.

Additional Big Wave DEIR comments are available for download.

I spoke with County planner Camille Leung yesterday, she said it’s not part of the Planning Departments process to provide the Planning Commissioner with the DEIR comments. Leung said the Commissioners would have to put in a formal public records request if they wanted to review the DEIR comments in advance of the Study Session this Wednesday morning.

Sam's Chowder House Hosts Fundraiser Supporting the Big Wave Project, Mar 13 8:55am, Amy Tezza — You don’t want BIg Wave to be built and so you disapprove of this fundraiser. Is this the sort of comment you are fishing for? Or we should just send the comments directly to Sam’s? I saw that you gave Sam’s a one star “rating” in Yelp because ...

Pacifica examines widening part of Hwy 1 to six lanes, Mar 12 8:23pm, Carl May — Given the well-known effect of school traffic on traffic congestion from the midcoast through HMB, possible busing in Pacifica would seem worth studying. Vallemar School is a K-8 campus with a good record of achievement, and at least some parents ...

Pacifica examines widening part of Hwy 1 to six lanes, Mar 12 4:59pm, Amy Tezza — I think Barbara Kossy’s observation is spot on; this is my daily commute and on non school mornings it’s not a problem but it can take over fifteen minutes to get through Pacifica during rush hour on school days. Sometimes people ask me if the ...

Consultants' plan for Hwy 1 lacks awareness of our environment and community, Mar 11 4:06pm, Carl May — “Many of your neighbors don’t care.

Consultants' plan for Hwy 1 lacks awareness of our environment and community, Mar 11 2:24pm, Kevin Barron — An overpass will NEVER happen here. It reeks of growth, development, and an iota of suburbanization. Many here want to hold tight to no-growth-weed-ridden-squalor. Allow no infrastructure improvements, so any attempts at “progress” is denied for ...
