The project scope includes periodic check-ins with the City Council at key junctures, such as during the development of alternatives, selection and refinement of the "base plan," and review of the redline draft plan, and for the adoption of the plan itself. These meetings will provide the opportunity for the Council to receive updates on the progress of the plan, provide input and direction on key policy questions, and ensure that the planning process is proceeding in an appropriate policy direction. In addition to the above public meetings, staff anticipates engaging with key public agency stakeholders, such as Zone 7, PUSD, East Bay Regional Park District, and Alameda County, to get input on elements of the plan affecting (or with the potential to affect) those agencies' lands and/or facilities. Schedule/Timeline The overall EPSP process is expected to take 18-24 months to complete, from project initiation through the adoption of the EPSP and EIR.
