The Saratoga Union School District has given notice that it intends to adopt a negative declaration for the proposed renovation project at Redwood Middle School.
A negative declaration means the school district does not believe a major environmental review is needed.
The negative declaration, its accompanying initial environmental study and environmental impact checklist form are available for public review at the SUSD District Office, 20460 Forrest Hills Drive until March 5.
Copies are also available for review at Saratoga City Hall, Saratoga Community Library, Redwood Middle School and at Mail Boxes Etc. in the Village, where copies can be made.
Comments on any or all of the documents and the intent of the district's negative declaration are welcome, and can be made in writing to the Saratoga Union School District, 20460 Forrest Hills Drive, Saratoga, Calif., 95070. Comments should be addressed to Mary Gardner, Superintendent, by March 5.
