In addition to the video presentations, staff developed a detailed map of the Preliminary Concept Height staff recommendations (Updated June 16, 2020) for the Diridon Station Area. Staff also conducted a survey to collect feedback on the presentations. The focus was on how to balance trade-offs and get to a mix of investments that will most benefit the people of San Jose. It built upon the Desired Outcomes identified through the 2018 engagement process and subsequent input. The survey helped inform the City’s work on the Google project, as well as broader policy changes that would apply to the entire Diridon Station Area.
