Kendall Flint of Flint Strategies has been working for the last two years with San Mateo County on a land use upgrade. Not just a general plan, but a comprehensive plan for the Princeton-by-the-Sea harbor area.
Harbor locals were afraid of “Disney-ification” and hundreds showed up to public meetings saying “Keep Princeton Funky!”
So, for the last two years Flint has lead the charge. Starting with envisioning potential options and then crafting concepts based on the chosen vision. They considered:
- beach access
- reclaiming beaches
- working harbor
- traffic
- boat access
- serving visitors
That means no plans for five story buildings! Pocket parks and keeping it the Coastsider heaven it is are more important to Flint and the county. Listen to her talk about the vision for Princeton below.
One more meeting to go—stay tuned to Coastsider Calendar for the dates.
