Impact analysis
The applicant will invest millions privately and pay for highway improvements; the county gains sales tax revenue but some residents fear costs from traffic and environmental harm.
Travelers on US 101, the applicant, and the county tax base.
Opponents say nearby residents, students at Eagle Peak School, and the Coyote Valley tribal gas station bear traffic, noise, air quality and competitive harms.
