It’s baaack, just like a scary Halloween movie…
Recently as Hillcrest was receiving national accolades from the APA for our community’s charm, village atmosphere & sensible planning, La Jolla Pacific Development resubmitted their plans for 301 University. The Uptown Planners have been informed that the developer has obtained a consultant to prepare an environmental impact report (EIR), which is required pursuant to the recent court ruling. In August San Diego’s Superior Court ruled against 301 and voided the City Council’s 7-1 approval of this monster project. The court found an EIR was needed prior to the decision-making process. The findings contained in the EIR may necessitate modifications to the 12-story project. It is important that Uptown Planners, as the official advisory planning group for our neighborhoods, again review the project after the EIR is finalized. If you think this project is wrong for Hillcrest, contact your City Council member.
