Proposed Whitehawk I & II projects in Granite Bay

AUBURN, Calif. – Placer County is seeking public input on the draft environmental impact report for the proposed Whitehawk I & II projects in Granite Bay.

A public hearing on the draft EIR is set for the Dec. 13 Planning Commission meeting. The hearing – open to the public – is scheduled for Dec. 13 at 10 a.m., at the Community Development Resource Center’s Planning Commission Hearing Room, 3091 County Center Drive in North Auburn. As part of the County’s environmental review process, a public meeting on a draft EIR is held during the public review period to receive public comment on the draft EIR and encourage community participation.

The project sites, both currently undeveloped, are located on the south side of Douglas Boulevard, east of Sierra College Boulevard and west of Barton Road. The Whitehawk I project proposes 24 detached single-family residential units in a Planned Residential Development on 18.1 acres. Approximately fifty-four percent of the site would remain as common area and open space including the Strap Ravine corridor and a 300-foot scenic setback along Douglas Boulevard. The project would include residential home sites ranging in size from 9,049 to 16,661 square feet. A 0.33-acre private park would be constructed along with a half-mile long, publicly-accessible trail connecting to the adjacent Greyhawk neighborhood to the west.
