Land Use Committee Backs Acceptance of Mission Bay Streets and Infrastructure
Summary
The Land Use Committee on April 2 recommended the Board of Supervisors accept public infrastructure for portions of Seventh Street, Mission Bay Drive and a Mariposa block in Mission Bay South, citing completed work, agency certifications and consistency with the city's general plan.
The Land Use and Transportation Committee recommended on April 2 that the Board of Supervisors accept public infrastructure improvements in Mission Bay South, including segments of Seventh Street, Mission Bay Drive and a single-block Mariposa Street segment.
Supervisor Jane Kim, the item sponsor, told the committee she was “very excited that we are continuing to accept more streets that we can open up for our residents and workers in the Mission Bay area.” Public Works representative Barbara Moy said the improvements were built to approved plans and coordinated with regional rail and utilities. “The public improvements were constructed in accordance with approved plans and specifications,” Moy said, adding design coordination with the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (Caltrain) and the California Public Utilities Commission.
Moy told the committee that the director of public works, in consultation with agencies including the Public Utilities Commission, Fire Department and MTA, issued notices certifying the projects as complete and ready for their intended use. The planning department concluded the construction is consistent with the city’s general plan and planning code section 101.1 and that the work does not trigger additional review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The materials and staff presentation noted that earlier Board approvals for the redevelopment plan, owner participation agreement and the Mission Bay South infrastructure plan included closing an at-grade railroad crossing at Berry Street. The Mariposa segment includes coordination with Caltrans for on- and off-ramp work, though Moy clarified Caltrans right-of-way work is not being accepted by the city.
After no public comment, Supervisor Kim moved to forward items 1 and 2 with a positive recommendation to the full Board of Supervisors; the motion carried without objection. The items are scheduled to appear on the Board’s April 10 agenda.
