What is the process for approving the LRDP and EIR?
In addition to more than 50 meetings and presentations on the LRDP http://www.ucsbvision2025.com/outreach.html, a public hearing on the draft LRDP and EIR documents was held on June 4th, 2008, and the public comment period ended June 23, 2008.
University officials and environmental consultants are reviewing comments and questions received during the public comment period and preparing responses. Responses to the comments will be incorporated into the Final LRDP and EIR. Those documents are anticipated to be available in Fall of 2008 and will be available on this Web site. The LRDP and Final EIR will then proceed to the UC Board of Regents, followed by the California Coastal Commission for review and anticipated approval in 2009.
Updates regarding next steps and the LRDP & EIR approval process will be posted on this Web site.
