ECOS letter to Sacramento City Planning Commission re Airport South 5/21/2025

On May 21, 2025, ECOS submitted a letter to the City of Sacramento Planning Commission regarding their vote on the Airport South Industrial Project, proposed in Natomas.

Below is an excerpt.

The Environmental Council of Sacramento (ECOS) opposes this annexation of farmland to build warehouses and asks you to recommend denial of the developers’ request to the City Council.

There are many arguments against this project, and few to support it. We hope you, the Planning Commission, will recognize the importance of plans that were put in place to balance development and preservation of open space. This project is clearly inconsistent with Natomas Habitat Conservation Plan, City General Plan, County General Plan, SACOG Blueprint, regional air quality and transportation plans and the Urban Services Boundary.
