Advocacy Alert: December 6
Back in June, Caltrain staff discussed their work on a transit-oriented development policy. They committed to bringing a draft policy to the board by the end of 2018, and that it would include an affordable housing component. However, it's the end of 2018 and there hasn't been another discussion of the affordable housing policy!
Join us to remind Caltrain to prioritize this policy. The next board meeting is:
December 6 @ 10 am Bacciocco Auditorium, 2nd Floor 1250 San Carlos Avenue, San Carlos CA 94070
We will speak at the beginning of the meeting, during public comment.
