The Save RCI group is asking the community to attend this coming Irvine City Council meeting, which is on Tuesday, August 13th.  Those attending should plan to arrive by 5pm.

The Council will consider a resolution to affirm that "it has not intent to change the General Plan and/or Zoning Ordinance designations applicable to the RCI property.

City Councilmember Mike Carroll, along with Mayor Christina Shea announced at their July 11th town hall meeting on their plans to introduce this resolution at the CC meeting.  And the Save RCI group hopes that Councilmembers Anthony Kuo, Farrah Khan and Melissa Fox will also vote in favor of the resolution.  

Read the City of Irvine memo on this proposed RCI resolution.

The Save RCI group reported that the RCI property owners, the Spearman family and KB Home withdrew their application to build 123 condos/homes on the property, but have since been talking to City Council members and others about building 49 homes.

But the Save RCI group states that they "do not believe that this attempt to coopt the [RCI] resolution has affected the resolve of any of the City Council members."

The Save RCI group further states that those who plan to attend the August 13th CC meeting should wear a yellow neon shirt to show solidarity. 

And if any attendees plan to speak, to keep it respectful and short.  The group will pass out yellow-colored flyers saying "Save RCI!" to hold up in the audience.
