851 Main Street Project

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has executed Streambed Alteration Agreement EPIMS-SMO-49651-R3 with The Minkoff Group, represented by Daniel Minkoff, for the 901 El Camino Project in Redwood City, San Mateo County. Pursuant to section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code, the project involves the relocation of a 170-foot-long reach of an unnamed tributary at Little River Park. This work includes the construction of a new 166-foot-long channel featuring 0.031 acre of aquatic habitat, 0.033 acre of freshwater marsh habitat, and 0.128 acre of riparian woodland and grassland habitat. Additionally, the downstream portion of the existing channel and its associated habitats will be filled and converted into a 66-inch diameter underground storm drain pipe approximately 75 linear feet in length. The project is located at 999 El Camino Real, a commercial parking lot, and a portion of California Street, with the City of Redwood City serving as the Lead Agency. Approval was granted on August 26, 2025, with the determination that the project will not have a significant environmental effect within the jurisdiction of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Compliance with specific mitigation measures is a mandatory condition of the approval. Administrative oversight involves the City of Redwood City and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, with the project falling under NAICS code 237990.
