Sutter’s Current Hospital Plan Doesn’t Work for Our Community
It’s too big, it’s too expensive, it’s too damaging to our community.
Sutter Health is proposing a 330-foot, 785,000-square-foot hospital as the centerpiece of a larger medical campus at 5300 Chiron Way. It would funnel an estimated 20,000 vehicle trips a day onto narrow, two-lane streets and bicycle boulevards not built to handle them. And it would increase demands on city services without providing ongoing property or business tax revenue to help close Emeryville’s $10 million deficit, projected to reach $14 million by 2030.
Tell the City What the Environmental Review Must Study
Emeryville is accepting public comments on the scope of the Environmental Impact Report for Sutter’s proposal. Review the Notice of Preparation and submit comments by 5:00 p.m. on September 14, 2026, so the EIR addresses the effects that matter to our neighborhoods.
You can also comment at the EIR scoping meeting at 6:30 p.m. on August 27, 2026, in City Council Chambers, 1333 Park Avenue.
Comments go to Miroo Desai, Planning Manager, City of Emeryville.
