What does it mean if I received a public hearing notice in the mail?
A notice for a public hearing is a required notice sent by the city to property owners who are in the vicinity of a property where development or changes are proposed. Such notice invites public participation in the decision-making process. If you received a public hearing notice in the mail, you may contact the Planning Division at 916-727-4740 for more information on the specific project.
