History
|
Second Avenue between Middlefield Road and Edison Way is the next street on the North Fair Oaks road priority list adopted by your Board that is proposed for reconstruction.

The San Mateo County Planning Department has determined that this project is exempt from the requirements for preparation of an EIR under Section 15301, Class 1, of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and we have filed a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk.

We are now recommending that your Board authorize calling for bids for the proposed work.
