Results of Balboa Reservoir Project residents’ survey: What are your concerns?

During the April 24th quarterly meeting and the May 13th Balboa Reservoir Project special meeting, SNA surveyed attendees about their particular concerns about the new housing development. Although this survey indicates local concerns about the project, the most important thing residents can do to be heard and participate in the development process is to attend the public review on June 10, or the online follow-up.
