Emerald Hills Design Review, Part Deux….
Last night, a public meeting was held by the San Mateo County Planning Commission to understand the opinion of residents of the Emerald Lake Hills neighborhood regarding the usefulness of the Emerald Lake Hills Design Review Committee. As you may recall, the Committee was comprised of Emerald Hills residents and was once chartered with making decisions on the architectural style, size, and appearance of new home construction and remodels in the neighborhood. Several years ago, the Committee was disbanded after strong opposition from neighbors and residents, some of which coined the phrase “Style Police” when referring to the Committee.
The details of this meeting are nicely covered in the following article in the Redwood City Daily News. Click here for the complete article: Agreeing to Disagree
