Good evening and welcome to the July 2nd, 2026 City of Napa, regular meeting for the Planning Commission.

I would like to call this meeting to order and ask Myra to please conduct a roll call.

We will now rise for the pledge of allegiance.
[1:00]
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands.
[1:07]
One nation under God, and indivisible with liberty and justice for all.
[1:16]
The Planning Commission conducts all meetings in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act and pursuant to the city's rules of order for planning commission meetings policy resolution 10.
[1:25]
Staff, are there any changes to the evenings agenda or any supplemental reports?
[1:29]
Yes, we have two items point of clarity.
[1:32]
So for item six, A will need clarify for the record.
[1:35]
The staff report reflects two five eight rivers on the way, but the project site is actually two eight five rivers on the way.
[1:43]
Legal out was accurate. The agenda was accurate.
[1:46]
Just a nuance for the verbal record.
[1:48]
And then for item seven, A were recommending continuing it to a date certain for the July 16th Planning Commission hearing.
[1:56]
Can I get a motion for this change? So moved.
[2:00]
Second. All those in favor? Aye. Motion passes.
[2:06]
Public comment. Public comment provides an opportunity for members of the public to directly address the Planning Commission on items.
[2:13]
Of interest, not otherwise noted on the agenda. Each speaker's comments will be limited to three minutes and will comply with the rules of order for planning commission meetings.
[2:21]
Do we have any members of the public who wish to provide public comments on non agenda items?
[2:26]
Seeing that there is no public here, we will move on the consent calendar.
[2:31]
These routine items may be approved by a single vote.
[2:34]
However, any member of the public or commissioner may remove an item for discussion during the public hearing portion of the agenda.
[2:40]
This evening, we are reviewing the Planning Commission regular meeting minutes for June 18th, 2026.
[2:46]
Is there a motion to approve the meeting minutes for the June 18th, 2026 Planning Commission regular meeting?
[2:53]
Second. All those in favor? Aye. Motion passes.
[2:58]
Consent hearings. Consent hearing items are considered routine and may be approved together by a single vote to the commission.
[3:04]
However, any member of the public or commission may remove an item from the consent hearing calendar.
[3:09]
And the item will be considered during the public hearing portion of the agenda.
[3:12]
Tonight we have item 6A River Sound Storage Creative Sign Program at 285 River Soundway.
[3:19]
Is there a request from a commissioner or member of the public to pull this item from the consent hearings?
[3:26]
Is there a motion to approve the consent hearing as submitted?
[3:30]
So moved. Second. All those in favor? Aye. Aye. Aye.
[3:35]
There are no public hearings, no administrative reports.
[3:39]
Lastly, are there any comments by a commissioner or a staff member?
[3:46]
Happy independence day, holiday.
[3:49]
250 years.
[3:51]
Maybe to another shameless plug of the workshop on July 14th for the Zoning Ornant update.
[3:57]
We held it 530 in the Napa County Library.
[4:01]
Just because we received some comments so far asking if that will be streamed.
[4:05]
That won't be streamed or available as a recording.
[4:08]
But the study session with the Planning Commission on the 16th will be both streamed and a recording will be available upon completion probably by the next day.
[4:20]
I have a question about that.
[4:22]
Is it okay if more than two members of the Planning Commission attend that community workshop?
[4:32]
Is there any issue with us attending that?
[4:43]
Okay. For you to be present what the Brown Act bars is.
[4:51]
You discussing items that are within your jurisdiction outside the, you know, of a regular Brown Act notice meeting.
[5:00]
So if you attend and this is a and you're you're not meeting with more than two of your colleagues here.
[5:11]
And discussing those items with them then that's fine.
[5:16]
Don't sit together.
[5:19]
Yeah, avoiding the appearance of having a, you know, an improper meeting is I think you should keep that in mind.
[5:30]
Thank you. Any other questions?
[5:33]
In July, 16th will have the study session with the Planning Commission.
[5:38]
Both of those efforts will be led by our consultant.
[5:41]
You'll see our retired new attend, Mike Walker at the workshop if you choose to attend.
[5:47]
You won't be at the study session.
[5:49]
So if you want to see him, maybe that's the time to see him.
[5:53]
I also want to speak into the record that both Mexico and the US are moving on to the round of 16.
[6:01]
And that during during the Planning Commission special meeting on Tuesday, June 30th.
[6:08]
We heard through the council chambers when Mexico scored both goals.
[6:13]
That was pretty exciting.
[6:16]
All right, nothing else.
[6:18]
Okay, with that the next regular scheduled meeting for the Planning Commission.
[6:21]
The city of Napa is July 16th, 2026.
[6:25]
Did you?
