The City of Foster City General Plan is the guiding document for the future vision of the City. The
Land Use and Circulation Element establishes a pattern for land use and sets out clear standards for
the density of population and the intensity of development for each of the proposed land uses, with a
direct tie between the timing, amount, type and location of development with the traffic, service and
infrastructure demands such development will generate.
The update of the Foster City General Plan (adopted in 1993) is necessary because many of the
objectives stated in the existing General Plan have been met. A new General Plan is required to address
new planning issues that will emerge. The updated General Plan is intended to be a map for the future
that will guide the development and growth of the City while maintaining and enhancing the quality
of life.
The SWOT Analysis background report identifies opportunities and issues facing Foster City that
are applicable to the update of the Land Use and Circulation Element. The report builds upon the
findings from the focus group meetings and the Trends Analysis background report (reviewed at the
May 17, 2011 Study Session), and will provide a summary of issues and recommendations for near-

Sports Briefs
Sandoval takes early batting practice
ST. LOUIS — The San Francisco Giants got an encourag-
ing sign from Pablo Sandoval, who took early batting practice
and could be close to a rehab assignment.
Manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that Sandoval swung
away right-handed and had pitches flipped to him batting left-
handed, getting about 75 swings in all and driving the ball.
Sandoval is on the mend from right wrist surgery.
Sandoval is scheduled to take batting practice from both
sides on Wednesday and could start a rehab stint that would
give him 20 at-bats or so this weekend.
Slumping Aubrey Huff, batting .219 with four homers, was
not in Tuesday night’s lineup against St. Louis. Bochy said
Huff might be trying too hard to compensate for injuries to
Sandoval and Buster Posey, and could get two days off.
