A map of proposed residential development is displayed as Jan Sramek, the chief executive officer of Solano County’s now-shelved “California Forever” development, discusses it during a January news conference in Rio Vista.A measure this fall letting Solano County voters approve — or not — a vast new development about 45 miles northeast of San Francisco just may have been the most influential local ballot proposition California has seen in decades, if it had gone forward.
The billionaires, who did this gradually in order not to drive the price of land to forbidding levels, include LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, venture capitalist Mark Andreessen, Lauren Powell Jobs and former Goldman Sachs trader Jan Sramek, with Sramek now the project’s chief executive officer.
Instead of parks and schools going in gradually while new residents filter into a raw development, all 17,500 acres in this one were to be ready almost simultaneously — stores, homes, apartments, parks, schools and offices all opening about the same time. If the Solano County plan eventually happens, some of the vast desert spaces north and east of Los Angeles could also eventually find themselves hosting large new developments. That’s the way much of California was built, long before politicians like state Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, successfully campaigned to make urban sprawl political anathema.
