At the February University City Community Association (UCCA) meeting, Andy Wiese (pictured standing left), University Community Planning Group (UCPG) representative, provided an update on the potential sale of City owned properties in University City.
He announced that at its January meeting, UC Planning Group recommended that the parcels be removed from the City’s potential sale list.
At February’s UCPG meeting, chair Janay Kruger announced that the City had decided to remove the parcel owned by the Public Utilities Department (aka water department) at Governor and Gullstrand from the potential sale list. The PUD will retain this property and the property is not for sale.
The other property is a 45-acre parcel on the north end of Town Center Drive. All of which is in the City’s Multi-Habitat Planning Area (MHPA) and part of the 150 acre Roselle Canyon. Since the north University City parcel is still potentially for sale, residents are encouraged to continue writing letters and send emails to Councilmember Barbara Bry to express concerns.
Andy noted the timing of this issue as University City will soon be undergoing a Community Plan update. There will be opportunity for the public to get involved in the Community Plan update.
In other Planning Group news, there will be a UCPG member election at the March UCPG meeting. Andy Wiese and Katie Rodolico, both present at this UCCA meeting, are running for the resident representative position.
