Top issues during term (15)(Development)
Vesce lawsuit settlement and public access to 'the Dips'
Settling limits the city's ongoing litigation costs; residents have been privately fundraising to defend their access claims.
Revised seven-story mixed-use project at 3458 Mount Diablo Boulevard
The developer says paying for both a three-bedroom affordable unit and the public art would cost him hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Sunflower Hill at Sierra Place naming
The project could bring roughly $6.1 million in county Measure X housing funds; the city waived planning application fees but not development impact fees.
Housing Element lawsuit settlement downtown zoning changes
The corridor study is underway with consultants, and objective design standards are due by year's end.
Terraces of Lafayette Parcel Map Appeal
Staff warned denial could expose the city to $1-1.5M in attorney fees and HAA fines starting around $3.15M.
Pre-approved ADU prototype designs
Homeowners using the plans save on design and permitting costs; exact savings weren't quantified.
Happy Valley Road Hillside Residence
Neighbors worry drainage changes and construction could create costly flooding and mudslide risks; the applicant says runoff would actually drop.
New hillside home at 1716 Reliez Valley Road
No city cost; the driveway, retaining walls, and drainage improvements will be funded privately.
Temple Isaiah campus expansion at 945 Risa Road
Free pre-approved ADU plans could cut design costs for homeowners adding units.
Tilden Preparatory School relocation to downtown Lafayette
No cost to the city; the school would occupy an existing building downtown and could help activate the East End commercial area.
Community Center replacement
Keeping the old Community Center running costs over $500,000 a year; replacing it is a major funding decision ahead.
Khristo hillside home and contested driveway on Carlyle Terrace
Oak Hill Road mixed-use project modification
11 below-market-rate units remain in the project, though 7 will now serve moderate-income rather than very low-income households.
2025 Annual Housing Progress Report
Affordable housing at 949 Moraga Road
