General Plan Update - Behind The Scenes

Strategy Meeting
City Staff met with the Consultant Team on Tuesday, December 10. We will be finalizing details of what information will be ready for the January 27 GPAC meeting as well as a specific schedule for 2020 - including deliverables, technical review timelines, and how that may correlate with scheduling of GPAC meetings and Planning Commission/City Council hearings.

Student Presentations
While at Dyett & Bhatia's offices on Tuesday, City Staff engaged with a group of undergraduate urban studies students from UC Berkeley. A class assignment included writing a report on the future of a city - and the students chose Napa as their focus! Staff received presentations from student groups on topics ranging from transportation solutions to energy independence. Once their class is complete, we will share the presentations and fresh ideas and perspectives provided by our future leaders!
