Redwood LIFE Project July Update

Proposals for the Redwood LIFE office complex campus in Redwood Shores continue to develop, and the City of Redwood City and the project management team at Longfellow are continuing to gain insight from the community for this project. If you would like to voice your opinions on the project, there are two opportunities to provide feedback.

The Community Survey for the Redwood Life Precise Plan and EIR has extended its closure date to August 30th. This is the easiest and most direct way to provide feedback online about the project and draft development principles. Simply click the link above and follow the process through to submit your thoughts (in text and in topical checkboxes, whichever you feel most comfortable providing in the anonymous survey form) on issues and benefits of the proposal.

Additionally, an additional Community Workshop has been scheduled for in-person discussion about the project.

Crown Castle Application for Wireless Facility

Residents of Redwood Shores may have recently received a letter from the company Crown Castle regarding an application to install a “small wireless facility” on light poles in the neighborhood. A “small wireless facility” is a low-powered, compact device used to provide wireless cellular service.

Naturally, some people may have questions or want clarification on how or if these new wireless facilities could affect their neighborhood.

The Redwood Shores Community Association has requested Crown Castle to meet and address any concerns or questions from the community. A meeting on this subject has been scheduled for the night of April 17th at the Redwood Shores Library.
