Committee members used the Dec. 11 liaison meeting to flag a proposed housing development at 2100 Yang Road, east of U.S. 101, that the planning and transportation commission had unanimously endorsed and that is expected to come before the city council next year.

Members said the project is expected to include primarily family housing — the meeting transcript recorded that units could be "3 to 4 bedrooms per unit" — and warned that such a development could materially affect enrollment and school-site assignments if new families move into the district. Committee members asked for an early conversation with the district so school planners can assess enrollment impacts, site assignments and bus access before design decisions advance.

Members also pressed for coordinated attention to safe routes to school. They raised specific concerns that current bike infrastructure may not provide safe crossings from the east side of the freeway and urged the district and city to consider bike boulevards, crossing guards and other measures. District representatives said families have expressed concerns about e-bikes on and near campuses; the committee suggested exploring campus-specific rules and better interagency coordination.

Additionally, a committee member suggested the committee consider recreation needs — including sports-field scheduling and use of tennis courts for pickleball — as part of broader city–district coordination on facilities.

The committee did not take formal action but asked staff to schedule conversations and provide feedback to council members ahead of future council decisions on project design.
