The next step in the development process is for the Marinda Heights project to undergo an EIR, or Environmental Impact Report.
–
Bids for completing this report were reviewed by the town and a preferred vendor was selected and agreed to by the developer.
The EIR report process will likely take ~1 year, after which there will be additional hearings about the development. So, there is still a long way to go. However, the further we go down this road the less likely it is that we will be able to find a way to fund the preservation of this area. Anyone with ideas or leads on how to find funding to avoid development of this area, please contact me. (fairfaxwallproperty@gmail.com)
