Public Hearing for Menlo Property
City Planning Advisory Agency

Wed., January 6, 2010 (continued from July 22, 2009)
9:30 AM
City Hall room 1020

Case numbers:
ENV-2009-517-MND
VTT-70871-CN
ZA-2009-534-ZV-SPR
2600-2750 Riverside Drive

120 condo units are proposed for the vacant Menlo Property, 2600-2750 Riverside Drive. The discretionary action involves environmental review, a zone variance to allow the 157 existing units and merger and resubdivision of lots for the new condos. Of course, they've been keeping quiet about the acre of encroachments from neighbors on Waverly, which they are allowing to continue, but still counting in their total square footage to gain the maximum number of units.

There is a lot of history to the Menlo Property. It is the poster child for the Legacy of Failed Development in our neighborhood.
