Hey Cory Neighbors, we received a notice from the City of San Jose Planning Department about the 826 N Winchester project. They will be hosting a public meeting to receive community input, describe the project, and share how the process works.

This meeting will be on December 16th at 6pm.

The zoom link is https://sanjoseca.zoom.us/j/97603317122

More details are available at the San Jose Planning site: https://www.sanjoseca.gov/Home/Components/Calendar/Event/7264/5235

The full contents of the email we received is below:

This is a notice for a Community, General Plan Amendment, and Environmental Impact Report Scoping Meeting for the 826 North Winchester project (File Nos. GP23-011, C24-062, H24-052, ER24-147) on Zoom on December 16 at 6:00 pm. The Zoom link will be https://sanjoseca.zoom.us/j/97603317122, and the City’s meeting landing page (including postcard and agenda) is at https://www.sanjoseca.gov/Home/Components/Calendar/Event/7264/5235. If needed, you can call into the meeting at 408-638-0968 or 888-475-4499 and enter the Meeting ID, 976 0331 7122.

This date is being driven by requirements to hold a meeting during the circulation of the Notice of Preparation, which is expected to start next week. Public comment will be accepted for at least 30 days after posting, but the City is considering an additional week or so to submit comment due to the holidays.

You are receiving this e-mail because you are on the Interested Parties list for this project. If you live within 1,000 feet of the project site, you will also be receiving a postcard notice in the mail. Please feel free to inform your neighbors about this meeting, and you or they can contact me if you have any questions about this.
