Helping gauge impact of proposed Costco, shape vision for community center.
San Jose Vice Mayor Rosemary Kamei, holding the bullhorn, leads a tour of the El Paseo shopping center area for urban planning students from San Jose State University in February. Kamei, whose West San Jose council district abuts Saratoga, contacted SJSU about bringing in urban planning students to help conduct research on the potential impact of a proposed Costco near the border of the two cities.
Aftab said San Jose Vice Mayor Rosemary Kamei contacted SJSU about bringing in urban planning students to help conduct research on the proposed Costco’s potential impact. The students have also been conducting surveys on the project, and hosted a meeting for local leaders from cities like Saratoga that will be affected by the development to solicit feedback and concerns.
The SJSU students have also been involved in recent efforts spearheaded by the Los Gatos Thrives Foundation to envision what a new multigenerational community center in town could look like.
