Now, agenda item number four is a public
hearing to legalize an addition to an
[2:42]
existing automotive repair shop. Is
there a presentation from staff for this
[2:47]
item?
>> Yes, assistant planner Avery Tow will be
[2:49]
giving the presentation tonight.
[2:54]
Good evening, commissioners. Good
evening, chair. Item four before you is
[2:59]
conditional use permit CUP 2402 for
Phoenix Auto Care located at 3071 West
[3:06]
Valley Boulevard. Phoenix Autocare is
existing auto repair shop operating
[3:10]
within the commercial mixeduse zone. Uh
the request tonight is to legalize a
[3:15]
206q ft office and restroom addition
that was constructed without permits.
[3:21]
Staff's recommended action is to adopt
resolution number 255 approving the
[3:26]
conditional use permit and finding the
project exempt from SQA.
[3:32]
This is the project site located in the
northeast intersection of West Valley
[3:36]
Boulevard and Westmont Drive. The
property has about 137 ft of frontage
[3:42]
along Valley Boulevard and 104 ft of
frontage along Westbond Drive with a 15t
[3:48]
wide alleyway along the northern
property line. The surrounding
[3:51]
neighborhood consists of a mix of
commercial, office, and residential use.
[4:02]
The property has operated as a auto
repair facility since 1981 with Phoenix
[4:08]
Autoare as the tenant since 2017. No
changes to the building or use occurred
[4:13]
at that time. In March 2024, the city
zoning update reclassified the site from
[4:19]
valley specific boulevard uh valley my
bad uh valley boulevard specific plan to
[4:25]
CMU commercial mixuse making automotive
repair a non-conforming use at this site
[4:31]
between June and September 2023. A 206qt
addition was constructed without
[4:37]
permits. A code enforcement case
followed in October 2023 and a planning
[4:42]
application was submitted in January
2024 to legalize the addition which had
[4:47]
since been reviewed for compliance with
the Alhhamra Municipal Code.
[4:53]
The proposed expansion includes a large
office area of approximately 161 square
[4:59]
ft and a restroom expansion of about 45
ft. The addition does not include any
[5:05]
expansion of the existing repair
garages. Accessibility improvements have
[5:10]
been added, including an ADA compliant
ramp, guardrails, and a um accessible
[5:15]
restroom. There are 13 on-site parking
spaces, which exceeds the city's minimum
[5:20]
requirement of five spaces. One ADA
compliant stall has also been added.
[5:26]
The addition's design matches the
existing building in terms of materials,
[5:30]
massing, and scale and was approved by
the design review board on June 10th,
[5:35]
2025.
[5:40]
Here we have the existing floor plan
outlined um alongside alongside the
[5:46]
proposed floor plan. You could see the
area of added square footage outlined in
[5:50]
the dotted line. Uh the hatched area on
the proposed ford plan uh denotes
[5:55]
woodframe construction and areas of the
building that have been remodeled but do
[5:59]
not encompass new square footage. The
office and restroom areas are both
[6:03]
expanded to improve employee working
conditions and customer service
[6:07]
capacity. Uh the rest of the building
layout remains dedicated to automotive
[6:11]
repair operations.
[6:15]
These photos show the current conditions
of the site. You could see the addition
[6:20]
to be legalized marked with dotted lines
in photo two located as the last photo
[6:25]
in the second row of the photo
arrangement. The building is a single
[6:29]
story 12 ft in height as well uh well
below the 40ft maximum allowed in the
[6:34]
CMU zone and the addition has been
integrated into the design of the
[6:37]
existing building.
[6:42]
Here are the architectural renderings as
approved by the design review board.
[6:46]
They confirmed that the addition is
integrated into the existing building
[6:50]
design with consistent materials and
finishes.
[6:56]
Because the addition is a expansion of
non-conforming use, it cannot be
[7:00]
permitted under the previous cup from
1981. The cup from 1981 only encompasses
[7:06]
approval for what was physically
developed on the site at the time. The
[7:11]
municipal code allows expansion of a
non-conforming use only with a new
[7:16]
conditional use permit. Staff has
determined that with appropriate
[7:19]
conditions, the expanded use will remain
consistent with the general plan,
[7:24]
compatible with surrounding uses, and
compliant with all applicable
[7:27]
development standards.
[7:31]
In conclusion, the proposed expansion
improves business functionality um
[7:36]
accompasses uh accommodates for expanded
administrative offices, remains
[7:41]
consistent with both the operational
history of the site and the surrounding
[7:45]
land uses. Staff recommends that the
planning commission adopt resolution
[7:50]
number 255 approving the conditional use
permit CUP 2402 to legalize addition and
[7:57]
find the project exempt from SQA. Staff
and applicant are available for any
[8:01]
questions. Thank you.
>> Thank you. Does the applicant have a
[8:06]
presentation?
>> Okay. Commissioners, do you have any
[8:12]
technical questions or requests for
clarification from staff based on their
[8:17]
presentation?
[8:21]
» Yes, I have a a point of clarification.
Um, when I'm looking at the uh
[8:26]
conditions for the use,
I'm not sure I see anything that
[8:30]
restricts the um the use to only an
office and a restroom. So did I did I
[8:39]
miss anything? Is there anything that
that says there's no there's a
[8:42]
restriction on the use that that is that
it has to be only office and a restroom.
[8:50]
Um so on the floor plans it has been
noted that the expansion is just um for
[8:55]
the office and the restroom. Um so this
for this particular expansion it's not
[9:00]
expansion of the garages um and it's
something that has been indicated on the
[9:04]
submitted floor plans but
>> right but there's no specific um
[9:08]
exclusion of use of that 216 ft. The
reason I'm asking is because I' I'd like
[9:15]
to know if that's a uh something we
could discuss on whether we can um add
[9:20]
to that conditional use permit that the
um that space can only be used as an
[9:27]
office and uh and restroom. So there
isn't any expansion of the operations
[9:32]
the repair operations into that area.
That's why I'm asking if there's
[9:36]
anything that's in the conditional use
uh documents now
[9:42]
that prohibits the expansion of
operations.
[9:47]
So, it's there's no prohibition
specifically, but if you look at PL6, it
[9:51]
it essentially says that the plans
submitted as part of this staff report
[9:55]
that are being approved as part of this
conditional use permit that they need to
[9:58]
operate in accordance with those plans.
So if they're showing on the plans that
[10:02]
it's for office space, approval of this
conditional use permit would require
[10:06]
that it be utilized for office space
>> from henceforth and forever more
[10:12]
» unless they requested an amendment to
the conditional use permit.
[10:16]
» Okay. Thank you.
>> Thank you, Commissioner Dorado. Um are
[10:20]
there uh is there anyone who has
pre-registered to provide public
[10:24]
comment? I see we have one card here. Uh
are there any written comments that have
[10:30]
been submitted?
>> Uh we did receive one email uh related
[10:34]
to this agenda item. Uh we provided
copies up on the dis for each of the
[10:38]
commissioners. Um that email was
submitted by Mr. Lewis McCann.
[10:46]
» Um yes and Mr. McCammon has uh submitted
a um request to speak on this item. So
[10:54]
Mr. McCammon, you're up.
[10:59]
a few things to pass out to you first
before I begin speaking there.
[11:05]
And
should be enough copies
[11:10]
or uh
[11:14]
the staff up here too. There's two items
there.
[11:27]
This is this is
[11:35]
Yeah.
[11:45]
Thank you.
[11:48]
Almost.
[12:18]
[Music]
[12:42]
Okay,
good evening. Luman, 105 North Cordova
[12:47]
Street. First off, let me say I think
this u uh project is entirely within
[12:53]
order and is non-controversial and you
should pass it. Um my um what I want to
[13:00]
talk about this evening is um the map I
noticed in there, which actually doesn't
[13:06]
even apply to this project
uh in the sense that it has way more
[13:12]
than enough parking on site. So, the
matter of uh the ability to reduce the
[13:19]
parking requirement isn't even necessary
item to address. Nonetheless, it's in
[13:24]
there and it does um uh it does bring to
mind I've asked before for when when we
[13:34]
had the update on state housing laws
that you received recently. I said there
[13:39]
really needs to be a followup about the
impact of pending legislation
[13:45]
uh in Sacramento on these things. And I
think we do need to go back and review
[13:50]
that particularly with the terms like
the definition of what is a major
[13:56]
transit stop and things of that nature.
I've seen various items in u that Skagg
[14:04]
has put out in their regional
transportation studies adopted initially
[14:09]
back in 2020 and uh the stuff that's
coming out of Sacramento
[14:16]
uh in which case you really have to
follow the trail of what what does
[14:22]
something mean and it'll refer you one
code section to another to another and
[14:28]
so forth. Very hard to follow.
But um I have tried to put together some
[14:34]
stuff and uh if my email there was
reproduced too, you have a lot more of
[14:38]
it. There is one typo I noticed in the
email and it's also in the part here and
[14:45]
that is just in uh the last introducing
that last section that last uh uh next
[14:53]
last boldfaced line there. It does. It
should be uh
[14:59]
California Public Resources Code section
211064.3
[15:05]
which matches the code number referred
to above. I had just hadn't caught that
[15:11]
typo before I put it out. But at any
rate, uh you'll notice previously when
[15:17]
we've had maps distributed, what are the
major transit stops that are we have to
[15:24]
be concerned with in approving
developments?
[15:28]
Um the three
[15:33]
stops along Atlantic Boulevard were the
ones that were highlighted and you were
[15:39]
just looking at things within a half
mile of those um yellow dots. Now, this
[15:45]
map here has greatly expanded that and
included all these little uh blue
[15:52]
circles.
Um some of which are really in my mind
[15:58]
very very minor things. In fact, uh if
if you're uh now in major transfer
[16:05]
stops, they're talking about
intersections of bus lines. They're not
[16:10]
talking about just a one group bus line.
There are things called transit
[16:15]
quarters, which could just be the one
route, but if you're talking about
[16:18]
transit stop, it it's an intersection,
and they say it's an intersection of two
[16:24]
major bus lines.
We just had a study which came before
[16:29]
the city council on June 23rd, very
elaborate study,
[16:33]
uh, done by a city retained consultant
about the act lines. And one of the
[16:38]
pages in that I just unfortunately I
didn't have time to reproduce that also
[16:42]
for you, but it's on uh digital page 79
of the uh of the online agenda for that
[16:52]
me city council meeting. It talked about
the act blue line and the act green line
[16:58]
and it had a column over here in the
end. Is this high frequency?
[17:03]
uh and they said 15 minutes or better at
the peak hour and they're using a little
[17:09]
bit different criteria and some parts of
state law refer to 15 minutes some parts
[17:13]
of state law refer to 20 minutes and on
the act blue line and green line was no
[17:21]
but they were referring to a 15minute
thing there uh it's generally about 20
[17:26]
minutes sometimes may be a minute or two
over but um
[17:32]
at any rate. They don't carry a huge
amount of traffic
[17:37]
and I and particularly in the case of
the blue line, you're looking at uh
[17:42]
Cordova and u or not Cordova but um uh
Chapel in Maine. There's almost nobody
[17:50]
switches from one line to the other
there because they essentially run
[17:53]
fairly parallel through most of the city
and everything. Um at any rate, that's
[17:58]
that's my five minutes. I just think we
need a um a chance to reiterate that
[18:04]
thing if we really need a study as soon
as possible and what's going on with the
[18:08]
legislation in Sacramento. How do all
these various things come together from
[18:13]
SKAG and the state about the major
transit stops the impact on the city if
[18:20]
everything is going to go with this map?
Boy, you can build to the max anywhere
[18:25]
in the city. Just throw out our zoning
code.
[18:28]
» Thank you.
>> Thank you. Yeah.
[18:31]
» Uh, do we have any other um speakers
online?
[18:35]
» We do. We have Jennifer Ing.
>> Go ahead, Jennifer.
[18:43]
» Good evening, commissioners. My name is
Jennifer Ing. I am a member of our
[18:46]
designer review board, but I'm speaking
for myself as an individual. Um, I don't
[18:50]
really have an opinion at all regarding
uh this particular property, but I do
[18:55]
have the map concerns, and I I want to
thank Lou for pointing those out. I
[18:59]
actually completely overlooked it on the
agenda until he sent the email out.
[19:04]
Um, I'm not going to repeat everything
that that Lou said, but I have many
[19:08]
similar questions. I know we have the
three major transit hubs that are along
[19:12]
Atlantic, but all these other, you know,
white dots with the blue outlines, um,
[19:16]
I'm not sure what those those are. Um, I
don't think there's a state law that
[19:20]
goes along with those yet. So, I'm
really looking for more clarification on
[19:24]
what's going on, um, with this this map.
Um, and you know, I again I don't want
[19:30]
to duplicate a lot of what L said, so I
will leave it there. And um, Bert would
[19:35]
like to speak as well.
>> Hi there. My name is uh, Bert Ing. I'm a
[19:40]
resident of Alhhamra. Uh, as just
disclosure, I am uh, a member of the,
[19:46]
uh, historic preservation commission.
Uh, and I'm speaking about item number
[19:51]
four, not about the actual conditional
use permit, but rather the uh the
[19:56]
exhibit uh with the map and the uh the
definitions and delineations of uh the
[20:02]
different transit stops. Um uh again, I
want to thank Lou for bringing this to
[20:07]
our attention. I uh I didn't see it. Um,
but when I did look at it, a concern
[20:14]
that I did have was
what the blue circles really mean. What
[20:20]
is the implication
uh of making those blue and how that
[20:26]
affects our zoning and how that affects
potentially our historic preservation
[20:31]
ordinance from the perspective of uh
preserving homes, preserving
[20:35]
neighborhoods. Um, I know that there's a
lot of different Senate bills out there
[20:40]
right now. Uh, and a lot of things are
up in the air. Uh, but coming down the
[20:46]
pipeline seems like there's, you know,
definitions of, uh, bus stops, transit
[20:52]
stops, and so on that actually have
implications to zoning. And I'm curious
[20:57]
what that map means that we have, uh, in
that exhibit, and again, what the
[21:02]
implications are. Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Rang. Do we have any
[21:08]
other speakers online?
>> No, we don't.
[21:11]
» Okay, cool. Can staff speak to any of
those concerns about the blue circles or
[21:19]
the purpose of the the of the blue
circles on the map? Yeah, just to
[21:23]
provide some context, um, uh, at a
recent meeting, after a recent planning
[21:27]
commission meeting, we had received a
request from a commissioner to in the
[21:30]
future include the, um, major transit
stop map as an attachment for your
[21:35]
reference. So, that was the reason why
we included it is just for reference, so
[21:39]
to help you guys better understand where
these stops are. Um, for the purposes of
[21:43]
this project and um, how this project
relates to AB2097.
[21:48]
under AB2097,
the project is not required to meet this
[21:53]
the city's minimum parking requirements.
So that's why we included the map just
[21:56]
to demonstrate that they are providing
parking, but um if there was a desire
[22:01]
for the commission to impose stricter
parking requirements or additional
[22:05]
parking, we wanted to advise you that
AB2097 precludes us from doing that. Um,
[22:12]
with respect to the map, there was an
update to the legislation um, in AB2097
[22:17]
that went into effect uh, January 1st of
this year, and it updated the definition
[22:21]
of a major transit stop from 15-minute
headways to 20-minute headways. So, with
[22:26]
that updated definition, it now includes
additional stops in the city,
[22:30]
particularly those on the um, ACT line,
the blue and green line, which do have
[22:34]
20-minute headways. So that is why you
are seeing additional um areas of the
[22:40]
city that now qualify as a major transit
stop based on that public resources code
[22:44]
definition which was updated earlier
this year. Thank you.
[22:48]
I also understand that some of you are
referring or some of our callers are
[22:53]
referring to SB uh 79
um which I understand will be there will
[23:00]
be a discussion at our next uh city
council meeting on SB79 and its
[23:05]
implications. So stay tuned for that.
Uh
[23:12]
well hang on just one second. Let me
see.
[23:16]
Uh
so we have nobody else wishing to speak
[23:20]
then I will close the public testimony
portion of the public hearing and uh
[23:26]
first um we'll go to uh see if the
applicant wants to respond to any
[23:31]
comment that was made. Okay. And does
staff want to respond to any comment on
[23:36]
any public testimony or comments made?
>> Not at this time.
[23:40]
» Okay. Then commissioners.
>> Yes. Thank thank you for thank you for
[23:43]
your forbearance.
This is a followup to that and I
[23:47]
appreciate the uh the background you
gave us. I think the the major point is
[23:52]
what about the two major the
intersection of two major routes as a
[23:58]
defining uh criteria for a criterion for
designation of major transit stop.
[24:11]
» So here's your question. What qualifies
as a major bus route?
[24:15]
» No, the intersection. So, right. So, it
says that the intersection of two major
[24:20]
bus routes.
>> Correct.
[24:22]
» What what defines that if that of what
I'm looking at this I don't see major
[24:28]
bus routes intersecting at those at the
blue dots.
[24:33]
» So, okay. So are your question is how we
determined those dots are intersecting
[24:38]
bus lines
>> not bus lines major intersection because
[24:42]
that's the that's the language right two
>> it's the intersection of two major bus
[24:48]
routes
>> that's right
[24:49]
» yes
>> so intersection not along the along the
[24:52]
route but where it intersects that's
what I'm understanding is where they
[24:56]
intersect that's what's considered a maj
major bus
[25:00]
» yes so that's what's reflected on the
map is it's showing the intersection of
[25:05]
ma of major bus routes
>> and and that's the blue dots that's the
[25:10]
yellow ones, right?
[25:16]
» So both the blue the dots with the white
dots with the blue outline and the
[25:22]
yellow dot with the red outline both
reflect the intersection of uh bus
[25:28]
routes,
>> major bus routes.
[25:31]
» Correct. Yes.
What the difference in in what they're
[25:35]
showing is that the the line along
Atlantic um that's based on the the SCAG
[25:44]
RTP regional transportation plan
sustainable community strategy transit
[25:47]
stops. And then the the ones with the
white circle with the blue outline are
[25:52]
just showing all of the transit stops
that meet that uh qualification of the
[25:57]
20-minute headways.
>> Okay.
[26:02]
So then that does fall within the
definition of an intersection,
[26:05]
» right? Yes.
[26:09]
» We have any other commissioners with
Yes.
[26:12]
President.
>> All right. Just thank you. Thank you,
[26:15]
President Olsson. Just to double click
on that a bit more. Um I'm aware of the
[26:19]
Metro line that runs on Atlantic and I'm
aware of the SCAG um major transit stops
[26:24]
that were at least depicted before the
definition was revised. Um, and given
[26:30]
the revision of the definition, now we
have the apparently the ACT bus lines
[26:34]
that now fall within the major transit
stops definition. Um, so I could see why
[26:39]
the dots here have circles. The white
dots have circles and the yellow dots
[26:43]
have circles in the map. What I'm still
kind of struggling with though is the
[26:46]
definition of major transit stop being
that it's the intersection of two or
[26:50]
major bus routes. So I don't understand
where the again Atlantic has a corridor
[26:57]
and with another bus route intersects
with that Atlantic. That would be an
[27:02]
example where they intersect as a major
transit stop according to the code
[27:07]
according to this code to
1064.3.
[27:12]
Are you saying that every one of these
act bus circles has is reflects reflects
[27:20]
two two bus routes intersecting at that
intersection.
[27:24]
» Yes. So there's also a metro line that
runs along valley. So it's the the fact
[27:28]
that there's a metro line running along
valley plus we have the act lines that
[27:32]
» that runs up and north that runs north
and south those ACT lines. So the um I
[27:37]
think it's the green line, one of them
is circular and the blue line I think um
[27:41]
kind of goes down Fremont. So it's the
intersection intersection of both the
[27:47]
act lines and the metro lines.
>> So what you're seeing here is those
[27:51]
metro lines on valley metro lines on
Atlantic and AC
[27:56]
» correct. Yes.
>> And ACT bus lines running intersecting
[28:00]
directions of those like opposite of
what the metro line runs. or having
[28:04]
basically to qualify as intersecting, it
just needs to have a stop basically at
[28:08]
the same intersection.
>> Even if they're going in the same
[28:10]
direction,
>> let's call it overlapping instead of
[28:12]
intersecting. How about that?
>> Yeah. So, they're not they're not
[28:16]
intersecting in the terms of what I
think of an intersection, different
[28:19]
directions of traffic. They're just
could be going parallel. So HCD has
[28:23]
provided loose guidance and based on
their loose guidance of how to interpret
[28:27]
that it it basically just means that you
have more than one bus line that shares
[28:33]
the same stop somewhere at an
intersection.
[28:36]
» Okay. And then have we confirmed for
sure that all our ACT bus lines that are
[28:40]
reflected here are 20 minutes or less?
>> Yes, that's correct.
[28:43]
» Okay. And then uh just one point, I was
the commissioner who asked to have these
[28:47]
maps added. So thank you Maya for doing
so. So, I apologize you're getting all
[28:50]
these questions as a result of my
request, but that's why I actually
[28:53]
wanted to have that those maps added
because there's two terms that have been
[28:57]
thrown around in the past. One was um
high uh quality transit areas and that's
[29:03]
where the whole corridor is highlighted
and now ACT is included. I don't even
[29:06]
know what the map looks like now at this
point. It might just be all blue. And
[29:09]
then there's the high quality or I'm
sorry, there's the high uh there's a
[29:14]
major transit stop map which before was
just you know essentially maybe maybe
[29:18]
two full circles and partials of three
other circles which now has been
[29:22]
replaced by what you see in the agenda
today. So again I think it's very
[29:25]
informative that you did this. So thank
you for doing that.
[29:30]
» We have any other comments or questions?
Commissioner Garda?
[29:33]
» Yes. To bring us back to the topic at
hand. I was wondering I had two
[29:37]
questions. One is uh on the site plan
there's an area in the alley that looks
[29:44]
like it's an easement. Maybe it's an
Edison easement where the power line
[29:49]
runs. And I was just wondering um why
it's just like a landscape strip in the
[29:55]
back there and if the if the applicant
is responsible for the maintenance of
[29:58]
that. Mhm. Um so the site plan submitted
by the applicant shows that there's a
[30:04]
existing electrical pole uh located
inside the landscaping strip. Um so
[30:08]
based on the plans we could deduce that
there is some sort of eastment to the
[30:11]
north of the property uh with the
landscaping belonging to the subject
[30:14]
property.
>> So the applicant is responsible for the
[30:18]
maintenance of that strip back there
behind the alley on the alley.
[30:21]
» That's correct.
>> Okay. And then um my second question was
[30:28]
when we're considering the externalities
of this type of use, I'm wondering if we
[30:32]
can't um with the applicant's consent
perhaps add a condition restricting the
[30:37]
hours of operation to what they've
listed in their application.
[30:44]
» Well, maybe we'll have the applicant
come to the podium to respond to see if
[30:47]
they'd be amendable to that.
[30:53]
So
what do you guys propose?
[30:57]
» So right now uh there's restrictions on
hours for construction.
[31:01]
» Okay.
>> And it's 7 to 7, but in your application
[31:04]
you seem to have more limited hours than
that in particular on Saturdays and I'm
[31:08]
wondering if you just would mind having
a a condition imposed that would
[31:12]
coincide with the hours of operation
that you have listed on the application.
[31:17]
» That's fine.
Just to clarify for the record, so the
[31:21]
the hours of operation that the
applicant provided are Monday to Friday,
[31:24]
9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Saturday, 9:00
a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and closed on Sundays.
[31:33]
» Yes.
[31:37]
» And uh I think that's it. Just want to
come to you. Uh, one other thing I just
[31:41]
wanted to ask was, uh, there seems to be
a lot of, um, items that are stored on
[31:46]
the site that are unrelated to the
automobile repair use, and I'm wondering
[31:51]
if, uh, you're amable to removing those
items from the site.
[31:55]
» That's not a problem.
>> Okay. Thank you.
[31:57]
» Yeah.
[32:01]
» We have any other comments or questions
from commissioners?
[32:06]
Uh,
all right then. Um, I will now close the
[32:12]
public hearing and entertain any motion
on the proposed resolution.
[32:17]
» I move that it uh be approved as voiced
or written
[32:23]
» with the additional condition.
>> Yes, the additional condition.
[32:26]
» The hours of operation.
>> I'll uh
[32:28]
» hours of operation and clean up of the
uh
[32:30]
» extra things.
>> Yeah, I think that's already in there.
[32:33]
Good.
>> Yeah, I'll second that.
[32:35]
» Excellent. So, we have uh miss uh a
motion from Commissioner uh Maharo and
[32:43]
I'm sorry, Dorado and a second from
Commissioner Gardea. Um do we have can
[32:49]
we have a roll call, please?
>> Chen, yes. Dorado,
[32:54]
» yes.
>> Garda,
[32:56]
» yes.
>> Galva,
[32:58]
» yes.
>> Ho,
[33:00]
» yes.
>> Wararez,
[33:02]
» yes.
>> Moaro,
[33:04]
» yes. Garcia,
>> yes.
[33:06]
» Olsson,
>> yes.
[33:09]
Next, we have oral and congratulations.
>> Yes.
[33:14]
» Next, we have oral communications for
non-aggendaized items. This is the time
[33:18]
in the meeting when the public may

[33:47]
Is there anyone wishing to provide
public comments?
[33:54]
» We have no one online.
>> All right. Thank you.
[33:57]
Uh then we will now continue to general
comments from the planning commission
[34:02]
and conference and meeting reports. Uh
do we have
[34:07]
uh do commissioners have any comments or
announcements?
[34:14]
All right, then we will now continue to
comments from staff. Is there a report
[34:18]
from the director of community
development?
[34:20]
» Uh there's no report tonight.
