About the plan

The San Francisco Planning Department held a series of public workshops in 2003 to develop a community plan for the "downtown" Glen Park neighborhood. The study area included downtown Glen Park, the BART station area, city streets and public open spaces. The intensive planning process involved community members, business owners and public agencies in developing a long-term plan for the neighborhood to guide future infrastructure improvements and update zoning, design guidelines and other city policies for future development.

Circulation issues important to the community, including pedestrian safety, access to transit, traffic flow and parking are addressed in the Plan. Ways to respect the neighborhood’s character through zoning, design guidelines and other city policies are also included. The Plan explores public improvement opportunities like the use and design of buildings surrounding the BART station, the design and character of streets, and connecting public open spaces and neighborhoods.

Now that the environmental review process for the Plan is underway since Spring 2009, the Plan is moving along a path to adoption by the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors. The Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is expected to take 18 months. Adoption of the Plan will follow. Once approved, the Community Plan will help guide investment in public improvements around the neighborhood and may result in changes to zoning, design guidelines, or other city policies.

The Planning Department is partnering with the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA), the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) on the Plan.
