I met with John Davey to discuss all things Costco and how it will affect the community. The conversation delves into the proposed Costco development at Silva Valley Parkway and Highway 50, exploring the community impact, environmental concerns, and the role of the El Dorado Hills Area Planning Advisory Committee (APAC) in the approval process. We cover the formation and purpose of APAC, its evolution, specific project reviews, challenges, community growth, engagement with project applicants, review of Costco's environmental impact report, traffic impact analysis, and consideration of adverse impacts to local businesses.

The conversation delves into the logistical challenges of managing traffic and road infrastructure. It also addresses public health and air quality concerns, particularly related to asbestos mitigation, blasting, and construction equipment emissions.
