Success at the BDCD Hearing!
Great news! In a public hearing on September 19th, the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC), which must approve all waterfront projects in the Bay Area, has formally approved Phoenix Commons’ application to renovate the dock and extend the bay trail all the way to the bridge. This is not just a major milestone in the development progress of Phoenix Commons, but also a victory for the public, which will soon be able to enjoy the waterfront along that entire stretch of estuary between the Park Street and Fruitvale bridges.
Not only did the application pass with flying colors, but Phoenix Commons is also proud to be the first development project on the bay to comply with new regulations concerning the rise of water levels due to global warming. This should make Phoenix Commons a community that will be around for generations to come!
