1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Commissioner Ebook, and I have Commissioner Myers notice as running late, Vice Chair Owen, President, and Chair

2
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Schottwell. And then I have Commissioner Massaro noted as absent for today.

3
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Commissioner, any additional proposed changes to this evening's agenda?

4
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Great. Public comment provides an opportunity for members of the public to directly address the planning commission on items of interest, not otherwise loaded on the agenda.

5
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:45,000
Each speaker's comments will be limited to three minutes and will comply with the rules of order for planning commission meetings.

6
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Do we have any members of the public who wish to provide public comments on non agenda items?

7
00:01:52,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Okay. Consent calendar. These routine items may be approved by a single vote, however, any member of the public or commissioner may remove an item for consideration during the public hearing portion of the agenda.

8
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:15,000
This evening we are reviewing the planning commission regular meeting minutes for December 18, 20, 25 to have a motion to approve.

9
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,000
I'll make a motion to approve.

10
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:29,000
I need to abstain because I was not here, so you're not going to have a quorum on those.

11
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,000
To the next meeting.

12
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:36,000
Okay. We'll move on and we'll look forward to that one again.

13
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:46,000
All right. We no longer have a consent hearing. Public hearings. These are items that are formally presented to the planning commission.

14
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,000
I would like to remind you of the members of the public comment.

15
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Applicants for comments are a lot of 10 minutes to present testimony at the beginning of the public hearing.

16
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000
And if needed, five minutes to present the buttole at the end of the public hearing.

17
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,000
All of their figures will be limited to three minutes.

18
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,000
Tonight we have the following item.

19
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:12,000
Item six, a 1765 Silverado Trail tentative parcel map.

20
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:18,000
We'll start the commissioner and dispose your seats.

21
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,000
I drove by the site.

22
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,000
I drove by the site.

23
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:34,000
I am familiar with the site. I met with the applicant a few months ago when it came to us before this and I also spoke with staff.

24
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Just briefly. I don't believe your microphones on.

25
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,000
What about now?

26
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Thank you.

27
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,000
All right. So we will now hear report from staff.

28
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Good evening. Everybody. I'll be presenting on the proposed tentative parcel map at 1765 Silverado Trail.

29
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:03,000
The applicant requests a tentative parcel map design review permit and use permit to divide an existing.

30
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Approximately 0.91 acre parcel into one approximately 0.51 acre parcel and 1.40 acre remainder parcel.

31
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,000
The applicant is Jorge Engel who is here tonight.

32
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:25,000
The project is project site is located on the west side of Silverado Trail north of Lincoln adjacent to the Napa River.

33
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:31,000
The site contains an existing single family home in some accessories structures.

34
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:38,000
But beyond that, the site is mostly vacant containing a mix of native and ornamental vegetation.

35
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,000
This is a view of the site from Silverado Trail.

36
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:51,000
As you can see, a large hedge is present that would be removed with the project that's a condition of approval.

37
00:04:51,000 --> 00:05:05,000
The applicant requests to divide the parcel into one parcel one fronting Silverado Trail and a second remainder parcel at the rear of the site that would continue to house the single family home with the project.

38
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:20,000
In addition to the tenant of the parcel map or the subdivision utility improvements are proposed with a project new water sewer gas electoral connections are proposed for the existing home and a new driveway is proposed to serve the existing home.

39
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:36,000
What is not being considered tonight is a request for a development of multifamily units on personal one that would come at a later time under a different item completely separate from this request.

40
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:49,000
The applicant has provided a development concept to illustrate that the property could be developed consistent with the high density residential general plan designation only it's not a request for development.

41
00:05:50,000 --> 00:06:04,000
The entitlements required for the project are a tentative parcel map to divide the parcel a use permit for the creation of a flaglot and a designer view permit for the design and layout of the proposed lots.

42
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:14,000
Just some clarification on remainder parcels a remainder parcel is a portion of property not divided for the purpose of sale permitted by the subdivision map act.

43
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:27,000
It's the applicant's intent to retain ownership of the remainder parcel and continue to live in a single family home and allow for the sale of the vacant parcel one for future development.

44
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:44,000
This is the proposed tentative parcel map you can see the large open area at the front parcel one that would be able to be conveyed for future development and the existing home and garage and other structures to remain at the rear on the remainder parcel.

45
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:55,000
This is a visualization of the project just you can see aerial view of the site with a approximation of the lot lines.

46
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,000
As you can see the site is border by multi family.

47
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:10,000
sites to the north in the south and would be ready for future proposed multi family development.

48
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:20,000
To approve the project the planning commission would have to make the findings for a tentative parcel map for a design review permit and for a use permit.

49
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:33,000
The staff makes the recommendation that the planning commission adopt a resolution approving a tentative parcel map and design review permit to to subdivide the parcel and use permit for the creation of a flaglot at.

50
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:39,000
1765 sort of trail and to also determine that the project is exempt from sequa.

51
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,000
Thank you.

52
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Thank you Paul.

53
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:49,000
All right and did the applicant wish to say anything or would we.

54
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,000
Thank you.

55
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,000
Any questions for staff or the applicant.

56
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,000
Do you know that this time.

57
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,000
Okay.

58
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,000
Commissioner Abok.

59
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,000
Do you have any questions.

60
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Okay.

61
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,000
All right.

62
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,000
timing.

63
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,000
You may go ahead and ask.

64
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,000
I had a question about the location of the new driveway.

65
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Has engineering or public work signed off on that.

66
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:29,000
Yes, the public works department reviewed the project and they issued conditions of approval.

67
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:36,000
I should clarify that the driveway extending all the way around the parcel is.

68
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:43,000
Not proposed with this project only the driveway along the south to access the single family home.

69
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,000
The northern portion of the driveway is up to the future multi family applicant.

70
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:55,000
What they want to do, but it that area of the property would be reserved under easement.

71
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,000
Okay.

72
00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:03,000
So at this time the driveway is not proposed to be changed unless they move forward with a similar development concept to what was shown.

73
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:07,000
Where the driveway comes around on the north side in that curve.

74
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,000
I know so the existing driveways at the center of the site.

75
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:17,000
So a new driveway would be constructed along the southern end to access the single family home, but not the full.

76
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,000
You know half shell driveway.

77
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,000
Okay.

78
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:27,000
And so has engineering looked at that configuration like the two drives in the distance between them.

79
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Yes.

80
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Okay.

81
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,000
Thank you.

82
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,000
Okay.

83
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:39,000
Could you just go back on your slides because you pass through.

84
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:46,000
One that had something to do with condominiums as after that.

85
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,000
It was like here we go except for this right here.

86
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:57,000
Can you explain the except for condominium conversion projects.

87
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,000
Can you just explain it because you kind of breeze through that and I.

88
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,000
Yes.

89
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,000
So these are the findings to make.

90
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,000
To approve a tentative parcel map.

91
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,000
So if a project is proposing condominium conversion.

92
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,000
You wouldn't need to make this finding because it's an existing building.

93
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,000
A condominium conversions where an existing multi family building is converted.

94
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Understood.

95
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,000
I just got it.

96
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,000
Okay.

97
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Thank you.

98
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,000
I saw that page and I and you didn't mention it.

99
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,000
So I just wanted to go back and make sure there wasn't something that I was missing.

100
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,000
Thank you.

101
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,000
All right.

102
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,000
I do not have any further questions.

103
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Okay.

104
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Great.

105
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,000
So would anyone like to make a motion.

106
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:47,000
Can you put your screen back.

107
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,000
Yes.

108
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,000
We don't have any public comment.

109
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,000
That's why I'm not opening up public comment.

110
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:59,000
I don't have any public here to comment, which is why I'm not opening public comment.

111
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Do we do we do we want to deliberate are we.

112
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Oh, I do we are we approve.

113
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,000
You know, I feel like we're recommending for approval.

114
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,000
We haven't heard any otherwise.

115
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,000
Okay.

116
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,000
Just making sure.

117
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Okay.

118
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,000
I don't bravely need any.

119
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,000
I'm happy to deliberate if needed.

120
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,000
No.

121
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Okay.

122
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,000
Just making sure you're okay.

123
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,000
All right.

124
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:26,000
Planning commission recommends to adopt a resolution of proving a tentative parcel map and design review permit to subdivide an existing approximately.

125
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:32,000
Point nine one acre parcel into one parcel and a remainder parcel and a use permit for the creation of one flag.

126
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:37,000
Lot for property located at 1765 silver on a trail and determining that the project is exempt from.

127
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,000
Second.

128
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,000
All in favor.

129
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,000
I motion passes.

130
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,000
Thank you.

131
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,000
Thank you very much.

132
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
You're so welcome.

133
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,000
All right.

134
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,000
So we have no administrative reports.

135
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,000
Or do we has anything come up since this was written.

136
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,000
Any comments by commissioners.

137
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,000
Or staff.

138
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,000
Yeah.

139
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,000
A few announcements.

140
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:10,000
So on February 5th we're still tracking to have PC chair and vice chair selection.

141
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:16,000
Assuming wall of attendance, but regardless of attendance, but commissioners will move forward with that selection.

142
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:25,000
As well as a brief overview of the PC bylaws policy resolution number 10 brown act in conflict of interest laws.

143
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:31,000
A few things coming up in the forecast as well will be.

144
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:45,000
Brief overview of quarterly development report quarter quarter quarter four of last year as well as presentation for the annual progress reports for the housing element in general plan that will go probably.

145
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,000
Late February.

146
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,000
It's not on the forecast right now, but we'll probably be tracking for that time.

147
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,000
The other announcement, which another email that was sent out as well.

148
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,000
Bond Mendez will be starting on Tuesday as an associate planner.

149
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,000
So we're excited to have her.

150
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,000
We'll probably.

151
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:11,000
You know, either reintroduce or introduce her to everyone at the February 5th planning commission meeting.

152
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,000
It's very exciting.

153
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,000
We have Bond back.

154
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:22,000
The only announcement that I wanted to make is I'm hoping that everyone attends the lighted art festival.

155
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:29,000
And that was that's all I really wanted to mention and I'm excited for another great year here.

156
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
Me too.

157
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,000
All right anything else.

158
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,000
All right, so.

159
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:42,000
The next regular least scheduled meeting for the planning commission of the city of Napa is February 5th 2026.

160
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,000
We are adjourned.

161
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,000
That's.
