The Menlo Park City Council will review the upcoming development agreement process for Facebook's west campus tonight.
Renowned architect Frank Gehry designed a 433,555-square-foot building for the Constitution Drive location that is expected to accommodate 2,800 engineers.
Also on the Sept. 11 agenda: The council appears to be taking preemptive action against payday loan businesses.
Although no such business currently exists within the city, staff has asked the council for direction on a possible ban after Community Legal Services in East Palo Alto approached the police department about regulating payday loan and auto title loan businesses, which are known for charging sky-high interest rates.
According to the staff report, the average payday loan interest rate in California was 414 percent in 2010. San Mateo County recently enacted an ordinance limiting locations and hours for such businesses.
Go to the city's website to review the agenda. A study session on Bedwell Bayfront Park operations starts at 6 p.m. followed by the regular meeting about hour later in council chambers at the Civic Center at 701 Laurel St.
