SAN DIEGO-The San Diego City Council is making significant strides with the citizen-developed City of Villages plan that it adopted late last year as part of the Strategic Framework Element, having recently narrowed down the pool of applicants to be chosen as potential pilot village demonstration projects.

The city council has chosen seven applicants to move on to the second phase of the City of Village’s Pilot Village program, which aims to integrate housing, retail, jobs, schools and civic uses into communities with easy access to transit. Applicants participating in the second stage are required to submit a more detailed project proposal and implementation strategy by October 2003. Those proposals will then be reviewed by the city staff, which will then pass them on to San Diego’s Planning Commission for consideration and recommendations. The winners are expected to be chosen in early 2004 and will go on to become actual pilot village demonstration projects. Implementation and building of the winning projects will take approximately three to five years.
