 == Purpose ==
 As a precondition of partially funding [[BART to Livermore at Isabel]] the MTC requires dense urban development near the proposed station in the I-580 median at the Isabel Avenue interchange.  Since MTC is offering no specifics about the needed urbanization, the City Council has decided to fund and manage the effort to develop a plan they hope would satisfy the MTC.  This rezoning plan will be abandoned if BART is not built first.  Lacking BART, the existing zoning will remain unchanged.

 The planning team will prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Isabel Neighborhood Plan, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The purpose of CEQA is to: provide information to the public and decision-makers about the potential for a proposed project to significantly affect the environment; prevent or reduce environmental impacts through design and mitigation measures; and enhance public participation and interagency coordination in planning and development review processes.
-As described in the Notice of Preparation, the EIR for the Isabel Neighborhood Plan will provide a programmatic assessment of the potential consequences of implementing the plan and its policies. Plan implementation generally includes development under the proposed land use regulations and construction of the associated public improvements. In addition to identifying potentially significant impacts, the EIR will recommend measures to mitigate those impacts. The assessment will utilize the most current CEQA guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, Sections 15000–15387).  Note that the BART to Livermore Extension Project will be evaluated in a separate EIR to be prepared by BART.

 The City hosted a Scoping Meeting on Tuesday, April 26 to collect comments regarding preparation of the EIR. Click here for the presentation on the CEQA process. The feedback received at the Scoping meeting and during the comment period will build upon input received from stakeholders to date. The public will have additional opportunities to comment throughout the planning process, including after release of the Draft EIR (anticipated for end of 2016).

 City staff is working with a consultant team led by the firm Dyett & Bhatia to complete the land use planning process. The process generally includes the following stages, of which the first two have been completed:
-Community Visioning
+*Community Visioning
-Alternative Land Use/Circulation Scenarios
+*Alternative Land Use/Circulation Scenarios
-Preferred Plan

-Draft Isabel Neighborhood Plan and Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
+*Draft Isabel Neighborhood Plan and Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
-Adoption of the Isabel Neighborhood Plan
+*Adoption of the Isabel Neighborhood Plan
 Visioning: The first stage of planning involved getting input from a range of stakeholders, including the community at large, to discuss priorities for the Isabel Neighborhood and establish a vision for the Isabel Neighborhood Plan area. This phase was conducted in 2015. The City’s planning team talked to over 600 people at over 40 events, including focus groups, interviews, neighborhood meetings, tables at city events, and presentations to community groups. Input from stakeholders was compiled into a Vision for the Isabel Neighborhood Plan. Click here for a summary of the Visioning phase of outreach.
