Thank you to everyone who joined us on April 12, 2017 for a conversation on the updated Draft of the Proposed Urban Design Guidelines.

We’ve held almost 20 conversations with the community thus far about the Proposed Urban Design Guidelines, and the feedback and comments we received have been compiled and included in the next Draft.

If you would like to comment on the current Draft (released on March 16, 2017), they must be delivered by May 30, 2017. http://default.sfplanning.org/plans-and-programs/planning-for-the-city/Urban-Design-Guidelines/UrbanDesignGuidelines_DraftReview04.pdf Continue reading “SF Planning: Urban Design Guidelines and Residential Expansion Threshold” →
