The Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority on Monday will host a Public Scoping Meeting to discuss and solicit input on proposed modifications to the Foothill Gold Line light rail project from Glendora to Montclair.

The purpose of the public meeting is to solicit input on potential issues to be considered and addressed in a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report.

The public meeting will be 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. tomorrow, Dec. 10, at the La Verne Community Center, 3680 D Street, La Verne.

The Construction Authority proposes to modify the Glendora to Montclair Project to allow for the potential to construct and operate the project in four phases, instead of two phases, as previously approved.

Discussion includes possible phasing of construction and operation for the 12.3-mile, six-station project, and a proposed modification to the location of the future parking facility at the Pomona North Station.

The proposed phasing is necessary to match with both existing funding and pending/future funding and provides the Construction Authority the flexibility to build and operate the phases as funding becomes available.

For those who are unable to attend the scoping meeting in person, written comments will be accepted if received on or before Jan. 4, 2019. Please address written comments to:

Lisa Levy Buch, Metro Gold Line Foothill Extension Construction Authority, 406 East Huntington Drive, Suite 202; Monrovia, CA 91016-3633. Email can be sent to LLevyBuch@foothillgoldline.org.
