Does creating a Priority Development Area replace local land use control?

No. The PDA is first a funding tool and is part of Plan Bay Area, a regional plan which is strategic document only. By State law (California Government Code Section 65080(b)(2)(K), Plan Bay Area cannot supersede local land use authority. Any changes to local planning and land use policies are solely the authority and control of San Rafael.
