BACKGROUND:

The Coastside Design Review Committee reviews new development proposals to ensure that they are compatible with the physical setting of the site and the visual character of the communities of Montara, Moss Beach, El Granada, Miramar, and Princeton.  The Committee reviews development applications for compliance with specific site planning and architectural standards developed for the area.  In Summer 2018, the CDRC initiated on-going discussions through Special Open Study Session meetings for the purpose of updating the current Design Standards for the Midcoast.

 

DISCUSSION:

Chris Johnson has been serving on the Coastside Design Review Committee since 2012 and is being recommended for reappointment. Previously, he served on the Midcoast Community Council and has been an active community leader on the coastside. Chris has a detailed eye and dedicates himself to a thorough, careful review of projects.  

 

This reappointment contributes to the 2025 Shared Vision statement of a Collaborative Community. Our diverse population works well together to build strong communities, effective government and a prosperous economy, civic engagement - including voting, public service, charitable giving, volunteerism, and participation in public discussions of important issues - is uniformly high among the diverse population of San Mateo County.

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.
