State Senator Scott Wiener, author of Senate Bill 35, which provided Kapuso a clear path for approval, attended the event.

Development permits have been filed seeking approval of a new residential project proposed for development at 500 East 4th Avenue in San Mateo, San Mateo County.

A former gas station at 524 East 4th Avenue has already been demolished.
