If you wish to submit a comment, send an e-mail to ekrause@glendaleca.gov, with “Grayson Repowering Project PR-DEIR” in the subject line and consider copying the city council members. After this time, the Final EIR will go to various commissions for review, and then to City Council for approval/direction.

Most importantly, your comments are needed at City Council and to City Council and Commission Members. We will provide more information about how to submit comments closer to when the commissions and council will consider the project. The PR-DEIR is currently scheduled to come before City Council for approval on Tuesday, January 25, 2022.
