Public hearing about Sharon Heights apartment redevelopment slated for Nov. 4

Menlo Park resident Siegfried Schoen emailed InMenlo about this upcoming event: “There will be a public hearing at the MP Council Chambers on November 4th at 7:00 pm about the proposed development of the BRE apartment property in Sharon Heights. The proposal by the property owner – a for-profit real estate investment trust – includes the removal of 62 heritage trees and the expansion of the commercial real estate footage among other items. The development would effectively remove an urban forest in the neighborhood and increase housing density and traffic. All residents are welcome to join the public hearing and voice their concerns.”
