FIVE WOUNDS URBAN VILLAGE PLAN UPDATE

FILE NOS: ER21-298

Project Description

The Five Wounds Urban Village Plan Update (project) would create a new “Five Wounds Urban Village” Plan that would govern land use and transportation development in the area through 2040. The new Five Wounds Urban Village Plan would incorporate the existing urban villages located in the project area (Five Wounds Urban Village, Roosevelt Park Urban Village, Little Portugal Urban Village, and the 24th and William Urban Village) into a single plan that reflects the anticipated development potential of the area following construction. The stand-alone Roosevelt Park Urban Village, Little Portugal Urban Village, and the 24th and William Urban Village Plans will be retired.

The project would modify the planned job and housing capacities of the project area from approximately 4,855 jobs and 2,022 housing units to 2,500 jobs and 8,022 housing units. The decrease in job capacity and increase in housing capacity would result in a net zero change in capacity under the Envision San José 2040 General Plan (General Plan), with jobs and housing units being distributed to and from, respectively, other urban villages throughout San José. More information about the project can be found following this cover letter.
