The State of California closed the psychiatric facility in 2018 with the objective of selling the 920-acre campus to a commercial entity. It has tasked Permit Sonoma, the county’s planning agency, with preparing a redevelopment plan.
Currently, Permit Sonoma is gathering public input for the environmental review process.
A draft environmental impact report is expected in June. At that time, both the draft environmental impact report and Specific Plan will solicit public comment for 45 days.
The County Planning Commission will hold public hearings in July to receive public comment on the draft environmental impact report and in August to potentially recommend that the Board of Supervisors certify a final environmental impact report and adopt a final Specific Plan in September.
