The Provide, Protect, Preserve Alternative was developed by a small working group of representatives from Sonoma Community Advocates for a Liveable Environment (SCALE) and Sonoma Valley Next 100 in response to public health and safety concerns, environmental site constraints, non-compliance with CEQA (as identified by the Sonoma County Superior Court in the SCALE decision), and broad community input. It represents a balanced and environmentally superior approach to redevelopment of the site.
