Subject: UDC Overhaul: Sustainability Board Meeting, Dec 14, 2022, Action Item I.1:
UDC Work Session
I am writing to offer the following public comment re: needed changes to the UDC (as
follows):
Allowing cash in lieu of water and cash in lieu of open space/parkland is not
sustainable in the face of climate change. Hence, these allowances should be
removed from the UDC, and each new development project, regardless of zoning,
should be required to provide a combination of onsite water and onsite open space
sufficient to completely offset the development's carbon footprint.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
