Public Involvement Process
A unique aspect of Phase I and Phase II of the Hazel Avenue
Corridor Study and Improvement Project was the County's emphasis
on early and active community and stakeholder participation.
The extensive public involvement program ensured that the
public was informed of project developments and were provided
an opportunity to express their opinions and concerns. Much
of the Study’s success can be attributed to active community
participation and collaboration.
Community Advisory Committee
The Community
Advisory Committee (CAC) was comprised of representatives
from the community and various stakeholder groups representing
Hazel Avenue property owners, residents, neighborhood associations,
environmental organizations, the business community, commuters
and other special interest groups. These individuals were
selected out of more than 50 community leader and resident
interviews. They represented the full scope of interests that
needed to be present during CAC discussions. View the list
of CAC representatives and their affiliated stakeholder group.The
CAC provided a voice for those stakeholders affected by the
existing corridor and any potential modifications to it. The
CAC was involved with all aspects of Phase I and Phase II
of the Study including the development, refinement and eventually
the selection of the two current project alternatives. In
June 2002, the CAC presented their project recommendations
to the Board of Supervisors after two years of hard work and
dedication to the Study.
Open House
Public open houses were held to inform and update the surrounding
community and other interested parties. These open houses
served as an opportunity for the general public to become
involved and to provide comment on the Study. Four public
open houses have been held to date. View meeting summaries.
Adjacent Property Owner Workshops
Adjacent property owner workshops gave special attention to
the unique issues facing owners and occupants of property
situated directly along the Hazel Avenue Corridor. Invitations
were sent directly to adjacent property owners. To date, two
of these special workshops have been held.
Technical Advisory Committee
The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) consisted of representatives
from public agencies and organizations, including Sacramento
County, Caltrans, Regional Transit, SACOG, and State Parks.
The TAC provided review and direction for the technical studies
and were a resource for generating and evaluating project
alternatives.

the course of the Study. Previous issues of the newsletters
