The Draft Station Area Plan has been completed, and represents almost two years of community involvement and careful planning. Strategies for the Plan are based upon extensive community visioning and input gathered throughout the planning process, and include an emphasis on walkability, mixed, vibrant land uses, and enhanced transit access for Santa Clara. Reports summarizing technical work, three previous community workshops (on visioning, alternatives, and the Preferred Plan), and stakeholder meetings are available on the project website at http://www.santaclarasap.com.

On Monday, July 21, community members are once again invited to join staff from VTA and the cities of Santa Clara and San José for an informational Open House on the Draft Station Area Plan. The final step in a series of community workshops for the Station Area Plan, this event will allow community members to read, view, and ask questions about the Plan. City staff and consultants will be on hand to explain, answer any questions, or offer feedback on the Plan and planning process.
