C. Receive Report on Status of Brisbane Soil Processing and Recycling Permit

(This item is to obtain Council’s guidance on the selection process to recommend appointment of two citizens to the Committee listed above.)

(The City contracted with RSBA this past spring to conduct a study of the site on Sierra Point that has been planned for a hotel up to 700 rooms since the 1970’s. The study findings recommend a smaller 200 room hotel and would not be built until such time as the current office buildings are leased up and the two developments currently approved, but not built, are constructed and filled. The timing of new hotel is therefore many years into the future.)
