City Council to Discuss Design Criteria for Downtown Development

Posted on February 1, 2018


What makes a great Downtown?  On Monday February 5, 2017, the San Rafael City Council will receive a presentation from Planning Commissioner Larry Paul and a working group of design professionals on Criteria for Good Design in Downtown San Rafael.  The working group has been meeting for several months to develop a cohesive design framework for evaluating new Downtown projects.   The effort has drawn from existing City documents such as General Plan 2020 and the Downtown San Rafael Vision, as well as best practices in urban design.  The Council and the general public will be invited to weigh in on the findings.  The staff report may be consulted for further detail.
