The Livermore City Council is set to consider approving a project entitlement Monday for the 13-unit housing development proposed for construction on East Avenue.
Dubbed Abboud Townhomes, the project proposes demolishing a single-family house in favor of building a two-story, attached, 13-unit multi-family, townhome-style development composed of all rental units. One accessory dwelling unit is also set for construction as part of the project.
Up for approval at Monday’s meeting is the project’s planned development, an item introduced during the council’s Nov. 24 meeting, wherein the council approved other project entitlements such as its subdivision and site plan design review.Â
The item is featured on the council’s consent calendar, which consists of items typically considered uncontroversial and decided with a single motion.Â
Also on the consent calendar, the city council is set to adopt a resolution of its intention to establish a Community Facilities District dubbed Garaventa Services, located north of Altamont Creek Elementary School along Bear Creek Drive, according to the agenda.
Kick-started by a petition from the land owner, the CFD is intended to finance certain ongoing maintenance services and waive the election time periods that would otherwise be applicable, according to the agenda.
The council also intends to declare its plan to host a public hearing Feb. 23 regarding the establishment of the CFD.
Elsewhere on the consent calendar, the council is set to greenlight the first amendments to contracts with Interwest Consulting Group, Inc. and Gannett Fleming, Inc. for increasing the maximum costs associated with agreements. Respectively, the monetary caps are set to rise to $1.5 million and $800,000, both up from $200,000, for on-call engineering and project management services for multiple Capital Improvement Plan projects.
Ahead of the consent calendar items, the council is set to confirm former city council candidate Jeff Kaskey as the city historian. Kaskey’s proposed appointment ending Feb. 1, 2028 is recommended by staff and the Historic Preservation Commission, according to the agenda.
The council is not scheduled to host any individual public hearings during the meeting, which is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. Monday (Jan. 12). The full agenda is available here.
