Report on Downtown Impacts to street closure (Oral
Report only)
Staff contact: Susan Moeller, Redevelopment
Manager 780-7401 smoeller@redwoodcity.org
At the City Council meeting of January 5, 2004, under
"Matters of Council Interest", Council Member
Hartnett expressed concern with the unique impact the
retail/cinema project construction has had on Theatre
Way (Middlefield Road). Not only has that area been
closed, but there is not a sidewalk or street in that
area making accessibility problematic. Because a meeting
was scheduled on January 6 with the Downtown Business
Group, staff recommended a summary be given on any actions
taken or to be taken on this issue as a result of that
meeting.
Recommendation:
Information only - no action to be taken |
7. ADJOURNMENT: MOTION TO ADJOURN UNTIL THE NEXT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JANUARY 26, 2004;
ALTERNATE AGENDA FORMATS: In accordance with AB 3035, the
City Council will provide materials in appropriate alternative
formats, or disability-related accommodation. Please send
a written request to Patricia S. Howe, City Clerk, at 1017
Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA 94063 or e-mail address
phowe@redwoodcity.org,

of the requested materials and preferred alternative format
or auxiliary aid or service at least seven calendar days before
the meeting.
