Downtown Rohnert Park is going to get a new look sooner than later. Apartments, a hotel, and shops are now on a fast track for construction on the former State Farm site. Last night, the Rohnert Park City Council rejected a plan that would have sought tax increases or reduced services to pay for a more ambitious concept that featured greater density. Instead, the council opted for a project that is similar to a recently approved plan, one that can be built quickly. The plan allows for the city to bypass additional environmental reviews while limiting city-funded capital costs and operating expenses.
