SUMMARY
The concept review of preliminary project proposals is a service offered through the Economic Development Program and is targeted for major developments or redevelopments where upfront feedback would provide valuable information for prospective developers and businesses. Representatives of Dermody Properties, the entity currently redeveloping the former Berkeley Farms site, and Amazon Logistics requested an opportunity to introduce their concept for the former Berkeley Farms site and to receive CEDC feedback before moving forward with finalizing the entitlement plans and related environmental analysis and submitting an application for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
