Read MoreMarin IJ: San Rafael Planners Release Final Mall Redevelopment EIR
Like the draft report, the final EIR, or FEIR, examines three other project alternatives, including a “no-project” option. In conclusion, the report says the “reduced residential alternative” — which proposes 63 fewer homes than what developers are seeking — would be the “environmentally superior alternative.” The option would “slightly reduce” the effects on air quality, emissions, energy, noise and vehicle trip generation, the report says. However, the report maintains that a list of required construction and mitigation measures would need to be followed to minimize disruptions. The report says the reduced residential alternative would meet the stated project objectives just with 63 fewer homes.

Read MoreMarin IJ: Mill Valley Middle School to Halt $130 Million Middle School Modernization Project, Due to Environmental Issues – Terra Marin School Agrees to Vacate
According to the Marin IJ, environmental issues have put plans for a new $130 million Mill Valley Middle School on hold, according to consultants for the school district. The delay is for more studies at the campus at 425 Sycamore Ave., which used to be a burn dump. The district’s plan is to demolish the school and rebuild it at the same site. Sandrine Hitchcock, a program manager for the construction consulting firm AECOM, discussed the project during a public forum on Thursday, saying the last step of the California Environmental Quality Act process is expected in July.
Read MoreMarin Voice: Cost of Housing in our County has Become Obscene
I have met a number of Marin residents facing homelessness. One works full-time while also caring for her developmentally disabled son. Another pays more in rent than her entire monthly income, watching her savings shrink monthly. These residents are in their 70s. They are scared, angry and feel betrayed by their community. They do not match the stereotypes of the homeless.

The partners’ ultimate vision for Corner Bar is to “blend the authentic charm of a neighborhood bar with the sultriness of a cocktail lounge. We want to celebrate the best of both worlds and infuse a new late night energy to downtown Mill Valley.” Corner Bar’s central location near Sweetwater Music Hall, the Throckmorton Theatre, and Mill Valley Film Festival makes it the ideal destination for pre-show or post-show drinks and bites.
