Upcoming City Council Study Session

The City of Belmont invites you to a City Council Study Session to learn about progress on the Harbor Industrial Area (HIA) Specific Plan. City staff will share what we’ve heard from the community in 2025 — including key ideas, priorities, and concerns — and how this feedback is helping shape the draft plan.

This is an opportunity to hear how the plan is evolving before a full draft is released. No formal action will be taken at this meeting.

The meeting will be open to the public and streamed live on the City’s website.

 

Event Details:

  • Date: Tuesday, October 14 2025

  • Time: 7:00 p.m.

  • Location: Belmont City Hall, 1 Twin Pines Ln., Belmont CA 94002
