Planners give projects extension

By Reporter Staff


Two projects spearheaded by city agencies were given a time extension Tuesday night.

The Vacaville Planning Commission approved time extensions for the Vacaville Transit Plaza and the Vanden Road Apartments and Townhomes.

The transit plaza, originally approved in 2003, will serve as the city's chief downtown bus transfer center at its location on the southeast corner of the Monte Vista Avenue and Cernon Street intersection.

Plans include a pick-up and drop-off area that can accommodate up to six buses, as well as extensive landscaping and a covered seating area.

Chris Gustin, the city's assistant director of community development, said Tuesday that funding for the project still is being secured and the design of the project is being finalized.

The Vanden Road housing project is scheduled to serve mostly military families. Gustin said Travis Air Force Base personnel will be offered the units first. Any ensuing vacancies will be open to the public.

Plans call for 93 units - mostly townhomes - on 8.4 acres on the west side of Vanden Road and south of Alamo Drive in southeastern Vacaville.
