BELMONT, CA — A commercial property near Ralston Avenue could make way for 45 townhomes as Belmont officials review plans for a new housing development.
Sierra Investments wants to demolish the existing office building at 2 Davis Drive and construct seven residential buildings on the roughly 3.24-acre site, according to city planning documents.
Along with the townhomes, the developer would set aside approximately 0.37 acres for a future public safety facility. Each residential building would contain four to seven units.
The project would require changes to the property's zoning and land use designation, which currently allow commercial development.
Belmont's Planning Commission held a public meeting Oct. 20 to gather input on the environmental review process, according to the city's Oct. 23 newsletter.
Environmental studies will help officials assess the development's potential impacts before deciding whether to approve the necessary changes.
City officials will continue to review the plans and have not announced a construction timeline.
