The City of Redding is requesting written comments from responsible agencies and the public regarding the scope and content of the Redding Riverfront Specific Plan Draft EIR.
The program-level Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will evaluate the environmental impacts associated with the likely type and amount of development projected under the Redding Riverfront Specific Plan. This EIR will not evaluate detailed, site-specific activities and future site-specific projects that may be developed under the Specific Plan. The City requests your written comments as to the scope and content of the EIR, including mitigation measures and/or project alternatives to reduce potential environmental impacts from the proposed project.
