The Livermore Planning Commission is set for a public hearing this evening to receive public comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Report for the General Plan 2045 and conforming amendments to the city’s municipal code and development code.

The General Plan 2045 is a comprehensive update to the City’s 2003-2025 General Plan. It revises long-range goals, policies, actions, and land use designations to reflect current conditions and community priorities, comply with State and regional requirements, and guide future decision making, according to the March 17 staff report.

In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), a Draft EIR has been prepared to evaluate the environmental impacts associated with
implementation of the plan.

While no action by the planning commission will be taken during tonight’s hearing, the
Planning Commission will review and make a recommendation to the City Council on the General Plan 2045 and the related EIR at a future public hearing.

The City Council will later hold a separate public hearing to make a final decision on certification of the EIR and adoption of the plan.

The commission meeting is set to begin at 7 p.m. Tuesday (March 17). The full agenda is available here.
