Vallejo’s New VALUE List Now Viewable from Public Record

The City of Vallejo’s new VALUE list, which was first unveiled during a City Council meeting on 22 July, has now been made mostly available following a public records request made by Solano Futuro.

The VALUE list, or Vallejo Assets and Land Use Entitlements, will provide city staff, public officials, Vallejo residents, and potential investors a look into all land inquiries, current projects, and new approvals in the City of Vallejo.

During the City Council’s 22 July meeting, many councilmembers expressed their intent to send follow-up emails to Planning and Development Services director Gillian Hayes on many projects discussed during the meeting. A week after the meeting, Solano Futuro filed a public records request to view those emails.

The City responded to the request on Thursday, uploading emails and the associated attachments, including the full VALUE list. Here are some projects that might potentially come to the City of Vallejo:

• Locust Drive Subdivision: informal inquiry with DeNova Homes to build 46 new single-family homes on Locust Drive, east of Masonic Drive
