2
00:01:22,900 --> 00:01:26,300

3
00:01:26,500 --> 00:01:27,920
Sure, please join me.

4
00:01:47,220 --> 00:01:59,280
Mr. Chair, at this time I'd like to request I'd like to move by amending the agenda by moving discussion of item number seven to fall item three.

5
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,440
Do I have a second on that motion?

6
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,560
Second? Okay, let's move forward. Item number seven comes up.

7
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,900
Sorry, all those in favor. Hi. Hi.

8
00:02:17,260 --> 00:02:21,200
Hi. Hi. So I'm gonna at this point I have the request of the

9
00:02:23,780 --> 00:02:29,500
Motion to put this item up front. I'm gonna turn it over to Mr. Quirk as he wants to address

10
00:02:29,500 --> 00:02:33,480
the commission and everybody out in the public.

11
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,680
Thank you chair.

12
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,380
Good evening everybody.

13
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,580
I just wanted to say with respect to the costumers incident,

14
00:02:42,020 --> 00:02:44,440
everyone who knows me knows I'm not a racist.

15
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:51,580
We've been members of this community for almost 15 years,

16
00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:53,200
while being in bad judgments.

17
00:02:53,200 --> 00:03:03,810
It was not a political excuse me can we let have some order, and again let's have some order

18
00:03:04,300 --> 00:03:13,240
You got to give the residents a note to another. You're going to have your moment in the public comment period, but please

19
00:03:25,170 --> 00:03:29,370
Honestly, honestly, honestly, honestly, we're all independent up here. We're all independent

20
00:03:34,250 --> 00:03:40,790
So I have a little bit respect towards the residents. I have a little bit down next to them.

21
00:03:50,110 --> 00:03:51,450
Let's take a 10 minute.

22
00:03:51,450 --> 00:03:52,070
You got to

23
00:03:52,070 --> 00:03:52,330
wash it?

24
00:03:52,850 --> 00:03:54,090
I'm going to go get out of the house.

25
00:03:54,290 --> 00:03:55,670
You got do you guys who were two

26
00:03:55,670 --> 00:03:56,070
burning your head

27
00:03:56,070 --> 00:03:56,430
right there?

28
00:03:56,610 --> 00:03:58,830
I got to wash it, that's

29
00:03:58,830 --> 00:03:59,290
fucking

30
00:14:51,300 --> 00:14:52,900
eating isn't how we adunned

31
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,380
uh... we're going to go ahead and go

32
00:14:55,380 --> 00:14:56,740
as the agenda

33
00:14:56,740 --> 00:14:58,120
is listed

34
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:58,680
we're with

35
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:28,720
Anybody that wants to do public, you know, you're being disrespectful and not allowing, you're being disrespectful, because you're not allowing the public to hear out in the public. Why don't you go in front of the podium and get your three minutes in? Please get your three minutes in. Get, we don't have no authority to vote anybody out. We, they're a point and we're all a point to it. We are all a point to it. Please proceed to the podium and go.

36
00:15:38,390 --> 00:15:38,870
Sir.

37
00:15:38,870 --> 00:15:38,950
Sir.

38
00:15:38,950 --> 00:15:39,810
Please don't get involved.

39
00:15:39,930 --> 00:15:40,350
You don't care.

40
00:15:40,570 --> 00:15:40,790
You're nothing.

41
00:15:41,010 --> 00:15:41,950
We want you to just split.

42
00:15:43,270 --> 00:15:43,750
Sir.

43
00:15:45,170 --> 00:15:46,230
To be fair.

44
00:15:48,050 --> 00:15:49,270
The folks at home.

45
00:15:49,310 --> 00:15:50,150
The folks at home.

46
00:15:50,150 --> 00:15:51,210
Can I hear you?

47
00:15:51,630 --> 00:15:53,170
You're not on the microphone.

48
00:15:55,190 --> 00:15:56,630
We're trying to have some to.

49
00:16:01,950 --> 00:16:03,610
We're trying to have a decorum.

50
00:16:03,610 --> 00:16:05,730
So that people at home can hear you.

51
00:16:06,070 --> 00:16:06,990
If you can't.

52
00:16:07,810 --> 00:16:08,130
You can't.

53
00:16:08,990 --> 00:16:09,470
Sir.

54
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:20,800
So you're disrupting the meeting, but we want to give you the chance to speak public comment.

55
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:26,360
However, the folks at home cannot hear you if you're talking over everyone.

56
00:16:30,580 --> 00:16:33,600
So I'm just going to go ahead and read the public comment.

57
00:16:34,460 --> 00:16:42,140
The public is invited to address the planning commission regarding any item of business with the exception of the public hearing items.

58
00:16:43,300 --> 00:16:47,560
Or any matter within the subject body's jurisdiction?

59
00:16:48,740 --> 00:16:52,620
Speakers must limit their comments to three minutes pursuant to state law.

60
00:16:52,980 --> 00:17:01,840
The Commission cannot take action or express a consensus of approval or disapproval on any oral communications which you not appear on the printed agenda.

61
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,500
Can we allow the speaker at the podium to speak?

62
00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:09,040
The teacher, the teacher name and address, and then have you, you have three minutes to

63
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,240
state your testimony.

64
00:17:10,540 --> 00:17:10,580
Yeah.

65
00:17:10,580 --> 00:17:11,400
Can you guys hear me?

66
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,040
You guys can hear me?

67
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:12,540
Okay.

68
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,380
My name is Tamara Harris.

69
00:17:14,620 --> 00:17:16,040
I'm not providing my address.

70
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:23,180
I think many of you sitting on this panel here today have forgotten who you serve and who

71
00:17:23,180 --> 00:17:26,380
allowed you the privilege to sit in these chambers.

72
00:17:26,700 --> 00:17:35,160
So let me remind you, the city of Whittier is home to 90,000, 90,000 people, and 66,

73
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:43,160
0.70% of that population is Hispanic. I know how sick this must make you

74
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:49,300
Richard. I know being in a room with all these minorities. I know you are just

75
00:17:49,300 --> 00:17:57,040
disgusted. I know you are. But this is the population you serve. If you want to

76
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:03,360
go back to the good old boys club serving white men, I'm sure since you enjoy

77
00:18:03,360 --> 00:18:08,800
playing dress up so much. You've got some heels you can click together three times to take

78
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:16,480
your ass to Kansas. Since you enjoy playing dress up so much. The Wittier City Council

79
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:22,920
website states that you and your colleagues are committed to serving Wittier and listed

80
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:29,440
under your collective priorities for the city is a transparent and open government with an

81
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:37,960
on public safety. Crazy. Yet as we demand the resignation of this goofy bitch, Richard

82
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:47,020
Quark, I see you. I see you Richard. Yeah. For his racist ass social media post, which

83
00:18:47,020 --> 00:18:49,080
we will not forget about.

84
00:18:52,700 --> 00:18:56,140
The mayor of Whittier, as well. The one that the mayor of Whittier

85
00:18:56,140 --> 00:19:03,380
right now all of a sudden that transparency no no now it's

86
00:19:03,380 --> 00:19:09,480
complicity now it's silence we demanded I side of Whittier and instead of

87
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:14,300
standing with the people and stopping mass vigilante is endangering innocent

88
00:19:14,300 --> 00:19:21,520
civilians in your city you throw $30,000 of our tax money towards some bullshit

89
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:29,580
to keep us quiet, as if you can put a price on generational trauma, kidnapping, and human trafficking.

90
00:19:30,700 --> 00:19:38,960
Nonetheless, $15,000 of that money is allegedly going to a non-profit called the Hispanic

91
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,960
Outreach Task Force.

92
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,620
Guess who's on their advisory council?

93
00:19:44,620 --> 00:19:52,360
Jolvin, it's Harry, our lovely mayor, our lovely racist neighborhood mayor.

94
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:58,440
That to me sounds like a conflict of interest, with the mayor of Whittier

95
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,800
fanning the flames by liking a video of Richard Quirk and his husband dressed up

96
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:08,860
as modern day Nazis, how can we be assured this money will even reach its

97
00:20:08,860 --> 00:20:09,980
intended target?

98
00:20:10,620 --> 00:20:15,480
How can we guarantee transparency when there has been no accountability?

99
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:16,820
Zero.

100
00:20:17,300 --> 00:20:17,720
None.

101
00:20:18,220 --> 00:20:19,520
Thank you for your time.

102
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,360
No, no, no, I'm not done.

103
00:20:21,700 --> 00:20:23,980
I got 30 seconds.

104
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:26,120
I'll give you 30 seconds.

105
00:20:26,180 --> 00:20:26,600
Okay.

106
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,780
Days of getting by and doing whatever the fuck you want are over.

107
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:35,780
The people of this country are wide awake and we see you for who and what you are.

108
00:20:35,780 --> 00:20:43,000
We are watching your every move, and while there may only be 20, 30 people in this room today.

109
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:53,540
These town halls are being broadcasted live by the people, for the people, and there are thousands of people watching you right now around the country.

110
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:54,300
Okay?

111
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,340
History will not remember any of you kindly.

112
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,600
Your legacy will be that you've been for need of fascism.

113
00:21:01,140 --> 00:21:04,580
That you sat by while families were torn apart and locked in cages.

114
00:21:04,580 --> 00:21:11,880
That you posted and shared racist ass videos amongst yourselves like the weird creepy old men that you are.

115
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,960
It will be that you stayed quiet in a week ass sentence.

116
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,500
Ma'am, your time is expired.

117
00:21:34,270 --> 00:21:35,930
Next up, public speaker, please.

118
00:21:36,230 --> 00:21:37,270

There it is.

124
00:22:03,570 --> 00:22:06,630

164
00:25:51,700 --> 00:25:54,520
My name is Jordan Burgos. I live in Whittier, California,

165
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,200
90602. Mr. Rodriguez, you did bring up an interesting response.

166
00:25:59,820 --> 00:26:03,720
You are here to review projects, projects that will do the betterment of the city,

167
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,240
which are decided upon by planning commissioners without bias.

168
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:14,300
You cannot say that everybody up there does not have a bias and holds any personal resentment

169
00:26:14,300 --> 00:26:16,180
towards any member of this community.

170
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,620
When it's been said otherwise, everybody standing up there is complicit.

171
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:40,160
Remember, history will not forget, for those that remain quiet and allow an appointed official that has demonstrated racism to remain in a position that can either cause redlining, which has been done historically in the past by planning commissioners, racist ones.

172
00:26:41,660 --> 00:26:45,900
Everybody understands that plenty commissioners hold a big power, especially in specific plans.

173
00:26:46,340 --> 00:26:52,240
I'm sure Friendly Hills is not one of those that is not beholden to that.

174
00:26:52,580 --> 00:26:55,380
Mr. Quark, be in very familiar with sign code.

175
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,680
How is it that you have an ideological sign posted in your front lawn past the 30 day allowance?

176
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:03,480
You yourself are breaking a code.

177
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,420
You know that? Are you going to write yourself up?

178
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,180
Okay, you're a big shot.

179
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,240
Use the code against yourself because you stand for it, right?

180
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:15,140
But you hold the bias.

181
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:16,400
There you go.

182
00:27:17,100 --> 00:27:20,580
How can anybody make a decision and stand with this person up there,

183
00:27:21,460 --> 00:27:22,880
knowing what he's capable of doing?

184
00:27:23,780 --> 00:27:25,320
You're all complicit in history.

185
00:27:25,500 --> 00:27:25,920
What do you remember?

186
00:27:27,660 --> 00:27:28,600
Shame on all of

187
00:27:33,210 --> 00:27:33,210
you.

188
00:27:33,510 --> 00:27:34,370
Next speaker, please.

189
00:27:34,730 --> 00:27:35,030
Thank you.

190
00:27:36,750 --> 00:27:37,510
Start the clock again.

191
00:27:37,790 --> 00:27:38,410
Thank you.

192
00:27:38,770 --> 00:27:40,370
Richard, why are you here?

193
00:27:41,070 --> 00:27:45,490
I'm glad you finally showed your racist face, but why the fuck are you still sitting there?

194
00:27:48,430 --> 00:27:52,550
You might think we're crazy, you might think we're crazy, but we're here

195
00:27:53,830 --> 00:27:57,990
Because fascism doesn't just come and just just knock on our door one day

196
00:27:57,990 --> 00:28:01,110
It shows up because of people like you because we let it happen

197
00:28:01,110 --> 00:28:03,070
We're not gonna let this happen

198
00:28:03,950 --> 00:28:05,370
It happens because

199
00:28:05,370 --> 00:28:07,490
How do people like Trump come and power?

200
00:28:07,830 --> 00:28:10,030
Because I feel like getting because we fucking let them

201
00:28:10,030 --> 00:28:14,070
I don't want this to happen in my city where I'm going to raise my two daughters.

202
00:28:14,970 --> 00:28:16,290
I'm not going to let this happen.

203
00:28:16,390 --> 00:28:19,030
I'm not going to let people like you run this city.

204
00:28:20,630 --> 00:28:22,590
I saw this on Instagram today.

205
00:28:22,690 --> 00:28:25,390
It says, but I should some didn't just arrive in boots.

206
00:28:25,670 --> 00:28:28,050
It came in bouncy houses and Facebook mom groups.

207
00:28:28,450 --> 00:28:33,090
It told us not to talk about politics at the play date, not to post about injustice because

208
00:28:33,090 --> 00:28:36,610
it's too heavy, not to scare the kids, not to make things awkward.

209
00:28:36,610 --> 00:28:44,010
It claimed the high ground by staying silent, by calling itself neutral, by smiling through genocide and censorship and calling it peace.

210
00:28:44,770 --> 00:28:47,610
Weaponized innocence looks like kindness, but it functions as cover.

211
00:28:48,170 --> 00:28:52,850
It protects power by prioritizing comfort, just like the decorum that you guys demand.

212
00:28:53,530 --> 00:28:56,290
And it silences dissent by labeling truth as rude.

213
00:28:56,710 --> 00:29:05,030
Some people storm the capital, others just voted for the people who did, and then went to target and posted a gratitude list and said, let's just move forward.

214
00:29:05,030 --> 00:29:11,510
But silences and peace, civility is injustice and choosing to ignore the fire doesn't make you pure and makes you a bystander.

215
00:29:11,950 --> 00:29:17,330
If your innocence cost, cost someone else their safety, it isn't innocence, it's complicity.

216
00:29:17,750 --> 00:29:19,070
This isn't about being too emotional.

217
00:29:19,310 --> 00:29:23,830
This is about survival as a nation, and we will not be quiet so that you can stay comfortable.

218
00:29:24,310 --> 00:29:26,030
So we're not going to let you be comfortable, Richard.

219
00:29:27,670 --> 00:29:29,490
We're going to keep coming to every meeting.

220
00:29:30,550 --> 00:29:32,910
Every single meeting on Monday nights.

221
00:29:33,930 --> 00:29:37,950
I'm going to make the time to be here. I had to do a lot to make it tonight. Again.

222
00:29:39,110 --> 00:29:40,810
And the last time you weren't even here.

223
00:29:41,370 --> 00:29:43,630
Well, I'm going to continue coming, whether you're here or not.

224
00:29:46,260 --> 00:29:47,640
We might go to your house, too.

225
00:29:53,350 --> 00:29:56,510
I really don't know what to say to you anymore, because...

226
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:18,800
I said a lot about the last meeting. I said it online. I said it everywhere. And you finally show up. And now I'm out of words because I'm just so pissed. I'm out of fucking words, Richard. And the rest of you too. I mean, city council, like, do you guys have no hold, no power, no pressure, no nothing. How is it that we put more pressure on city council than you if you do?

227
00:30:22,580 --> 00:30:28,940
So I really, I, I didn't come prepared to say anything except that I'm pissed and, and fuck you.

228
00:30:35,450 --> 00:30:36,570
Next speaker, please.

229
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,100
Next speaker. Go ahead, state your name, please.

230
00:30:45,460 --> 00:30:53,560
Good afternoon. My name is Veronica Garcia, and today I'm going to talk about something that a lot of residents have been talking about today.

231
00:30:53,560 --> 00:31:05,840
So, I called the city and I spoke to a supervisor that from HR that told me that we are a city

232
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:10,000
that we adopt ordinance as they want.

233
00:31:10,420 --> 00:31:18,140
So, I feel that the council and I feel that this panel here of commissioners do as they want for their financial agenda.

234
00:31:18,140 --> 00:31:46,580
The, the city we are offended by what Mr. Quark didn't his video. He now after how long is saying that he's sorry, but your actions are deeper than that. There's people children that are an accounted for and you sit here. I'm trying to ignore the people like you're better. You're not better. A person that is a racist like you by no means is better.

235
00:31:48,630 --> 00:31:57,990
So, the city said that we are a charter city. Therefore, there is zero expectations of codes of conduct for boards and commissioners.

236
00:31:59,790 --> 00:32:11,930
So, we ask why they do what they do, this is why, because we are a charter city and apparently a planning commissioner can act like a racist and everybody ignores it.

237
00:32:11,930 --> 00:32:22,730
My personal feeling about this is the city is one thing. The mayor is one thing. He may be the top boss and everybody else is probably scared

238
00:32:22,730 --> 00:32:25,050
We're not we will be at your house

239
00:32:26,090 --> 00:32:31,990
It comes to personal values and morals. I think that every person in that panel

240
00:32:31,990 --> 00:32:35,670
You say I don't have the power to vote them. I believe you

241
00:32:35,670 --> 00:32:41,910
I've done my own research and I've done enough reading to know that you guys don't personally have the power to do

242
00:32:41,930 --> 00:32:48,750
so, but would I be in that chair and be a part of this racist board? I would get up and

243
00:32:48,750 --> 00:32:54,870
leave. You know, if you want to behave like this and show that much disrespect to a community,

244
00:32:55,370 --> 00:33:00,730
I'm going to do what is best for me and my morals and my values and walk out.

245
00:33:03,420 --> 00:33:04,140
I have one more

246
00:33:04,140 --> 00:33:04,600
thing.

247
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:13,000
So again, the council and commissioners do as they want. They adopt ordans like I said to

248
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:18,260
their financial agenda. Some people in this panel are just discussing, and that's

249
00:33:18,260 --> 00:33:23,620
you Richard. Another very disgusting board member is Yukonli. Look at what a bitch you are.

250
00:33:24,060 --> 00:33:32,600
You just sit there, board to death, no one obligates you to be here. This is a planning commission

251
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:39,740
that is vital to the city. It's vital to us. There's a lot that you are in charge. But look at

252
00:33:39,740 --> 00:33:45,580
like a disemplated teddy bear just sitting there like lounging. This is not your TV

253
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:52,780
couch that you're just there. You're here. It's a job. I like you care. You're just playing

254
00:33:52,780 --> 00:33:53,580
disgusting.

255
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,780
Next speaker please. Please. Please. Stay your name and address.

256
00:34:07,180 --> 00:34:07,600
Please.

257
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:08,140
Hi.

258
00:34:14,420 --> 00:34:22,420
Excuse me. We have a speaker on the podium that we want to respect. No, we want to

259
00:34:24,820 --> 00:34:25,440
Yes, yes.

260
00:34:25,460 --> 00:34:25,940
Can't talk.

261
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,640
Get away from the races.

262
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:34,640
Okay.

263
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:35,980
Commissioner, please.

264
00:34:36,380 --> 00:34:37,580
If you would go ahead.

265
00:34:37,720 --> 00:34:39,100
Thank you.

266
00:34:39,220 --> 00:34:39,500
Ma'am.

267
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:40,420
Thank you.

268
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:42,460
Hi, Richard.

269
00:34:43,240 --> 00:34:47,700
I would say thank you for showing up and not wasting our time this time.

270
00:34:48,100 --> 00:34:50,820
But with how I think that statement earlier was going to end.

271
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,840
It sounded like you were not resigning.

272
00:34:52,900 --> 00:34:53,640
Am I correct?

273
00:34:54,940 --> 00:34:57,120
Just making that assumption there?

274
00:34:57,540 --> 00:34:58,100
I can never sign.

275
00:34:58,400 --> 00:34:58,560
Okay.

276
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,640
Okay, so if it's true that yeah, go ahead.

277
00:35:02,780 --> 00:35:02,860
Go ahead.

278
00:35:02,860 --> 00:35:03,920
Just we have one speaker.

279
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,160
I'm just paying attention to you.

280
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:06,620
Okay.

281
00:35:07,420 --> 00:35:09,600
If it's true that you guys really can't vote

282
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,160
amount, I'm disappointed.

283
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,540
Last meeting, I asked you to do whatever you

284
00:35:15,540 --> 00:35:16,960
could to have him removed.

285
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,540
Even if you are delusional enough to

286
00:35:19,540 --> 00:35:22,540
think that because you have friends that know you

287
00:35:22,540 --> 00:35:25,280
better than they say, you're not racist or whatever

288
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,520
excuse you're trying to come up with.

289
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:34,020
you have to admit that at this point, you are very disconnected from your community, right?

290
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:43,260
So even if you think for whatever reason you're not, what you did wasn't awful and very racist

291
00:35:43,260 --> 00:35:53,260
and super disgusting, it doesn't represent the people of Whittier and now it's gotten to a point

292
00:35:53,260 --> 00:35:57,060
where you should not represent us at all, right?

293
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:02,220
So as an appointed official, this is your opportunity

294
00:36:02,700 --> 00:36:04,640
to take a look around and say,

295
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,020
OK, I'm no longer representing my community.

296
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,360
It's time for me to step down.

297
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,760
So that's all we're asking of you.

298
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,860
And once again, if any of you guys can do anything,

299
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,200
please stand up for the residents and get this guy out of here.

300
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,340
We really need to do better.

301
00:36:24,340 --> 00:36:25,380
Thank you.

302
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:28,200
Next speaker please.

303
00:36:36,290 --> 00:36:38,270
Please teach your name and your address please.

304
00:36:38,570 --> 00:36:39,250
Thank you.

305
00:36:39,470 --> 00:36:40,630
Magdalena Mo.

306
00:36:41,350 --> 00:36:46,470
Good evening, planning commissioners, members of the city council and fellow residents of Whittier.

307
00:36:46,830 --> 00:36:47,750
I stand here today.

308
00:36:48,090 --> 00:36:52,030
I came last week, but Richard Kirk, you were not here.

309
00:36:52,430 --> 00:36:54,150
So this message is for you.

310
00:36:54,350 --> 00:36:56,390
And I want to read it loud and clear.

311
00:36:56,390 --> 00:36:58,430
And I hope that you listen.

312
00:36:59,150 --> 00:37:04,490
I stand before you today deeply disturbed by the recent actions of planning commissioner Richard Kirk.

313
00:37:04,990 --> 00:37:10,370
His social media posts depicting him and his partner in costumes, mocking criminal aliens and

314
00:37:10,370 --> 00:37:16,510
ICE agents, are not only deeply offensive but also demonstrate a profound lack of judgment and

315
00:37:16,510 --> 00:37:17,010
sensitivity.

316
00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:18,750
How dare you?

317
00:37:19,030 --> 00:37:28,110
Especially right now when we are experiencing turmoil and we're all the whole Latino- or

318
00:37:28,110 --> 00:37:34,190
today I call the city council or I call this city office to find out what are the rules regarding

319
00:37:34,190 --> 00:37:38,690
the way you're supposed to act all the commissioners and what your city council do you know that

320
00:37:38,690 --> 00:37:43,850
you don't have any they're they said there was none so I don't believe that the city has transparency

321
00:37:43,850 --> 00:37:49,310
because they don't if there was transparency you would have rules the way you're supposed to behave

322
00:37:49,310 --> 00:37:54,010
But being a racist bigot is not good for the community.

323
00:37:54,570 --> 00:37:55,630
You're a rest there.

324
00:37:56,690 --> 00:37:58,850
Every single one of you works.

325
00:37:59,230 --> 00:38:00,210
You forget one thing.

326
00:38:00,450 --> 00:38:01,730
You all work for the community.

327
00:38:01,830 --> 00:38:03,950
You work for the city for the people of Wittier.

328
00:38:04,350 --> 00:38:05,250
We don't work for you.

329
00:38:05,290 --> 00:38:06,250
You work for us.

330
00:38:07,010 --> 00:38:14,310
And we cannot have racist bigots making important decisions in our community that are going to affect every single one of us.

331
00:38:14,610 --> 00:38:16,370
And that's exactly what's going on.

332
00:38:16,370 --> 00:38:23,010
So in my opinion, you need to step down or be removed and you certainly have to have high

333
00:38:23,010 --> 00:38:25,990
criteria or some kind of criteria for you to be up there.

334
00:38:26,210 --> 00:38:30,810
I've said for a long time that the city that we, the residents of the city of Whittier

335
00:38:30,810 --> 00:38:35,910
are completely controlled by our mayor, our city council, and our city attorney.

336
00:38:37,190 --> 00:38:41,930
You cannot get on a commission unless you are well-liked by the mayor and the council.

337
00:38:41,930 --> 00:38:53,290
Even if you're not standing person, even if you love your community and you do good work, even if you're on different boards and people know that you do good work, you will not be selected.

338
00:38:54,090 --> 00:39:02,710
So, as far as I'm concerned, you know, the fact that you're being complicit and you're not doing anything is really an embarrassment to the whole community.

339
00:39:02,710 --> 00:39:09,490
I'm really ashamed. Anyways, I know that you guys do good work. I just need you to, you do good work.

340
00:39:10,550 --> 00:39:17,790
When you make good decisions because I've seen you make good decisions, but this is a bad decision to have Mr. Kirk on this commission.

341
00:39:18,450 --> 00:39:22,450
He's got to be removed. We cannot have a bigot basis on our commission.

342
00:39:23,070 --> 00:39:25,590
It's, you know, where the community is not going to put up with it anymore.

343
00:39:27,110 --> 00:39:31,190
So thank you very much for your time and remember if you're silent and you're complicit.

344
00:39:34,410 --> 00:39:35,690
Next speaker, please.

345
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:44,040
Any speakers on the queue on the online, then? Leslie?

346
00:39:45,740 --> 00:39:49,860
Chair Rodriguez, I do not have any speakers on the queue raising their hand to speak at this time.

347
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:59,620
This will close a public comment period and we will move on to public hearings.

348
00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:12,100
We're going to move on to item five, public hearings starting with five A and if staff has a presentation, please move forward on the presentation, please.

349
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:18,760
Just thank you. As Eduardo Rengkel, the planning technician gets prepared for his presentation.

350
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:29,220
I'll go ahead and read this into the record. Item five is a public hearing. Anyone interested matters scheduled for public hearing. They speak for three minutes at the time of the hearing.

351
00:40:29,220 --> 00:40:39,100
The applicant and the appellant will have up to 20 minutes to present their case and up to an additional 10 minutes to make rebuttal comments at the conclusion of the public hearing.

352
00:40:39,740 --> 00:40:47,240
If you challenge any part of the proposed action in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raised during the public hearing.

353
00:40:47,240 --> 00:41:13,500
Again, item 5A before you is a request to upgrade and existing Type 41, Bear and Wine Alcohol License to Type 47 on Sale General, ABC Alcohol License with extended hours of operation, extended hours of live entertainment and modification to the floor plan of an existing restaurant, building, doing business as the mission square, with an outdoor courtyard.

355
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:32,320
Sweet 100, and the assessors identification number is 8139-0330010.

356
00:41:33,060 --> 00:41:37,600
Again, the recommendation is to adopt the Attach Resolution, approving Conditional Use Permit

357
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:41,880
Number CEP25-002 with Conditions of Approval.

358
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:47,780
I think I've sufficiently introduced your item at Wardo. I think you may be able to proceed at this point. Thank you very much

359
00:42:08,510 --> 00:42:14,670
We won't take a break if this disruption you're being disrespectful for the applicants that came here in good faith

360
00:42:14,670 --> 00:42:18,030
You're being disrespectful for everybody that's watching and

361
00:42:19,550 --> 00:42:23,850
You know what I'm gonna take a five minute break again. Thank you

362
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:31,860
to make it ten minutes

363
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:20,920
Recoording in progress.

364
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:34,240
Okay, we're back in reconvening the meaning of the planning commission. And I think we were at the point where staff was about to get presentation on item 5A. Thank you.

365
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:36,620
Thank you.

366
00:53:38,790 --> 00:53:46,270
Good evening commissioners and members of the public. The following presentation review, conditional use permit 25-002.

The applicant is David Durkin with affordable additions incorporated on behalf of the

370
00:54:00,010 --> 00:54:01,570
business operator of Fredo Felix.

371
00:54:12,830 --> 00:54:16,830
The part of the site, I'll line in the red above, is located at the corner of Penstreet

372
00:54:16,830 --> 00:54:17,790
and Bright Avenue.

373
00:54:18,810 --> 00:54:22,510
The part of the site is a local historical landmark known as a standard oil building,

374
00:54:22,510 --> 00:54:29,710
In 9353 square foot building, 420 square feet is occupied by the interior dining of the

375
00:54:29,710 --> 00:54:34,810
mission square, and approximately 995 square feet of outdoor area.

376
00:54:36,110 --> 00:54:41,990
Decided to round the by existing commercial uses to the north, south, east and west, residential

377
00:54:41,990 --> 00:54:45,850
properties are also located in the north and east of the site.

378
00:54:48,160 --> 00:55:03,660
The applicant is requesting approval to upgrade an existing Type-41 Buren wine alcohol license to a Type-47 on cell-general alcohol license of an existing restaurant with hours of live entertainment and modification to the floor plan layout of an existing restaurant.

379
00:55:06,860 --> 00:55:17,940
Staff has determined the project to be categorically exempt from SQL, first, go 1, class 1, existing facilities at the California Environmental Quality Act.

380
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:29,700
pursuant to the Uptown Wittier Specific Plan, Section 4.3.2, Table 4-1,

381
00:55:30,060 --> 00:55:33,200
allow land uses and perimeter requirements for the Uptown Zones.

382
00:55:33,540 --> 00:55:38,380
Alcoholic beverage cells require to be ancillary to a rush on use and must be permitted

383
00:55:38,380 --> 00:55:44,060
to a conditional use permit. A bar slash tavern that does not have a rush on use is strictly prohibited

384
00:55:44,060 --> 00:55:46,120
by the Uptown Wittier Specific Plan.

385
00:55:49,390 --> 00:55:51,790
The following slides will summarize the project sites

386
00:55:51,790 --> 00:55:56,110
progression in regards to the city's actions associated with the restaurant use.

387
00:55:56,710 --> 00:56:02,430
The first recent modification to the subject-side land use occurred on November 6, 2000,

388
00:56:02,890 --> 00:56:08,530
when the zoning administrator approved one-dismay use permit number C97-01.

389
00:56:14,030 --> 00:56:18,570
Call the order, please. Can we have a call to order, please?

390
00:56:19,830 --> 00:56:24,690
We don't want to take any more recesses. We just want to get through this presentation, please.

391
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:34,200

396
00:56:53,370 --> 00:56:59,910
this public hearing you're being unfair to the public at large I don't think

397
00:56:59,910 --> 00:57:03,270
people on the TV are going to want to hear this they want to hear the applicant

398
00:57:03,270 --> 00:57:05,990

404
00:57:38,730 --> 00:57:43,550
recent modification to the subject side land use occurred on November 6 2000

405
00:57:43,550 --> 00:57:45,570
When the zoning administrator approved,

406
00:57:45,570 --> 00:57:48,870
Commissioner used permit number C-97, 0-1,

407
00:57:49,610 --> 00:57:52,210
modic fations to allow an existing rush on

409
00:57:54,450 --> 00:57:58,690
to allow extended hours of operation under a type 41 license.

410
00:57:59,470 --> 00:58:02,750
The hours were a Monday through Sunday, 630 to 1 a.m.

411
00:58:03,390 --> 00:58:05,330
For the city's business license records,

412
00:58:05,770 --> 00:58:09,050
Samantha's courty are continuing operating with an active business license

413
00:58:09,050 --> 00:58:10,550
until December 2003.

414
00:58:11,730 --> 00:58:18,390
In September 2011, 80 years after Samantha Cordyard departure, a business license was approved

415
00:58:18,390 --> 00:58:24,850
to allow the current tenant the mission square to continue the existing restaurant operation

416
00:58:24,850 --> 00:58:30,670
under the approved CUP's 97-01 and CUP-19-010.

417
00:58:33,210 --> 00:58:38,610
The next major modification occurred on September 3, 2019, which resulted in the Plenty Commission

00:58:53,050 --> 00:58:55,210
Do you think the pause real quick hang on us, of course?

421
00:59:30,310 --> 00:59:34,270
So if we can have another call to order please, you're being disruptive and you're actually

422
00:59:34,270 --> 00:59:40,490
violating the Brown Act and being disruptive to a governmental process here with the planning

423
00:59:40,490 --> 00:59:47,090
commission reviewing the case. Please, if you can allow the staff to conduct the business

424
00:59:47,090 --> 00:59:48,790
of the day and continue.

425
00:59:50,810 --> 00:59:52,450
Let's just proud through it again.

426
00:59:55,790 --> 00:59:57,730

431
01:00:19,530 --> 01:00:24,570

433
01:00:31,550 --> 01:00:34,150

472
01:04:06,030 --> 01:04:10,350

The Type 47 on-so-general ABC license requested will not change the total number of alcohol

475
01:04:20,950 --> 01:04:24,830
outlet, as it were placed the existing Type 41 license.

476
01:04:24,830 --> 01:04:31,970
Census track 15.0 for includes the majority of uptown's active dining and live entertainment.

477
01:04:36,180 --> 01:04:40,440
Staff would like to address that there have been no public comment at this time relating to this project.

478
01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:44,280
Staff recommends that the planning commission adopt the tax resolution,

479
01:04:44,780 --> 01:04:50,400
approving condition use permit number CUP25-002, with conditions of approval.

480
01:04:51,220 --> 01:04:53,400
Staff and applicant are available to answer any questions.

481
01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:54,360
Thank you.

482
01:04:58,050 --> 01:04:59,130
Thank you for the presentation.

483
01:04:59,950 --> 01:05:01,710
Commissioner Cornel. How do you have any questions?

484
01:05:03,370 --> 01:05:07,830
Just a quick question. Are there any modifications to the hours for music?

485
01:05:08,690 --> 01:05:09,130
Yes.

486
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:24,060
Can we have some order please one more time please. Thank you.

487
01:05:27,060 --> 01:05:31,540
If you look at the condition 10 feet, you'll think that the life of the team is

488
01:05:31,540 --> 01:05:36,600
stop at least one hour part of closing. The previous U.P. and Stive Entertainment

489
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:42,840
to 10 p.m. called this U.P. and then more towards 12 p.m. or 1 a.m.

490
01:05:42,960 --> 01:05:44,060
the U.S.

491
01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:46,660
That okay. Thank you. No further questions.

492
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:49,140
Come on, Sheriff Colleen.

493
01:05:51,290 --> 01:05:52,830
I don't have any questions. It's tough at this time.

494
01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:58,920
Shoulder, boys eat? No questions. Thank you for the presentation.

495
01:05:59,300 --> 01:06:02,340
Nice chair court. No questions, thank you.

496
01:06:04,990 --> 01:06:15,150
Thank you at this moment. I'll I'll I'll ask if the applicants have anything to respond on any questions regarding the entertainment or anything else to say about the restaurant

497
01:06:15,910 --> 01:06:19,010
Okay, at this point we'll open

498
01:06:22,970 --> 01:06:24,370
We will open

499
01:06:27,370 --> 01:06:36,190
At this point we'll open it up to the public hearing if you have any comments on this project please step forward and state your name and if we can have caught a order

500
01:06:36,190 --> 01:06:42,610
there is somebody at the podium to state a comment. Please state your name. Thank you.

501
01:06:42,750 --> 01:06:43,750
Magdalena Mo.

502
01:06:45,780 --> 01:06:52,560
Good evening, city planning commission. My friend's Tommy Maggie, and I'm here to

503
01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:59,240
support Fred. And I'm here because Fred supports the entire community. I don't know if you know this,

504
01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:04,960
but I've lived in the city of footier my entire life. I was raised in Murphy Ranch and we often

505
01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:11,060
go to Uptown, Whittier, and the mission in is a beautiful, beautiful place. It is historical.

506
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:16,960
It has beautiful brick work. It has, it's just lovely. And it's a great gathering place

507
01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:23,100
for our community. We often go there for baby showers, for weddings, for rotary meetings,

508
01:07:23,540 --> 01:07:29,640
meetings to honor the community. And it's really just a special place. So I'm here to support

509
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:35,080
because like I said he has a beautiful place. I often see him outside with his staff.

510
01:07:35,540 --> 01:07:37,760
He's always cleaning, he maintains that place and

511
01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:41,480
Maculant. He supports our nonprofits in the city of Wittier.

512
01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,660
And if he supports my community, I support him.

513
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:49,540
So I'm here tonight to ask that you support Fred with his license.

514
01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,320
He certainly deserves it.

515
01:07:54,660 --> 01:07:57,300
I hope that they keep the water, the little water fall,

516
01:07:57,300 --> 01:08:01,380
because it's not a waterfall, but it's a water fountain

517
01:08:01,380 --> 01:08:02,260
because it is gorgeous.

518
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:05,520
Anyways, we need more places like the mission

519
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:08,640
and it's a great place to go on Friday out to dinner.

520
01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:09,960
The food is wonderful.

521
01:08:10,540 --> 01:08:12,460
The ambiance is lovely and on Fridays.

522
01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:14,160
You could go and listen to music.

523
01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:16,580
And it's just a great place for our community

524
01:08:16,580 --> 01:08:18,020
and our neighbors to go to.

525
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,300
So I just wanted to stand here tonight

526
01:08:20,300 --> 01:08:21,300
to support Fred.

527
01:08:21,820 --> 01:08:24,000
He really is a great supporter of our community.

528
01:08:24,180 --> 01:08:26,360
And I wish all business owners were like him.

529
01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:29,440
He's just a really a wonderful person, thank you.

530
01:08:33,130 --> 01:08:34,590
Anybody else for this public hearing?

531
01:08:35,190 --> 01:08:38,510
In the audience, do we have anybody in the queue?

532
01:08:42,470 --> 01:08:44,230
Chair, we do not have anyone in the queue

533
01:08:44,230 --> 01:08:45,930
raising their hand to speak on this item.

534
01:08:47,430 --> 01:08:49,870
Seeing that there's nobody else on the queue.

535
01:08:50,850 --> 01:08:53,090
Do we need a motion to close the public hearing?

536
01:08:56,090 --> 01:08:56,350
Second.

537
01:08:57,050 --> 01:08:57,350
Second.

538
01:08:57,950 --> 01:09:00,990
We have a motion and a second to close the public hearing.

539
01:09:01,610 --> 01:09:04,490
We'll move on to commissioner discussions on the project.

540
01:09:04,490 --> 01:09:06,890
We'll start with the Commissioner Cornel.

541
01:09:07,690 --> 01:09:09,690
No further comments, I'm happy to move the item.

542
01:09:10,430 --> 01:09:11,210
Commissioner Cornel?

543
01:09:11,570 --> 01:09:12,370
No further comments.

544
01:09:12,530 --> 01:09:16,530
I'm happy to second if Cornel has ready to move already or give other commissioners their

545
01:09:16,530 --> 01:09:16,950
opportunity.

546
01:09:18,670 --> 01:09:19,170
Commissioner Bores.

547
01:09:19,390 --> 01:09:20,730
Ready to call for the vote.

548
01:09:21,290 --> 01:09:22,470
Commissioner Vice Chair.

549
01:09:23,290 --> 01:09:24,030
Great call for the vote.

550
01:09:25,330 --> 01:09:27,330
I actually want to say that your food is awesome.

551
01:09:27,670 --> 01:09:30,410
I love your Italian food, it's the best in town.

552
01:09:30,850 --> 01:09:34,010
I we love your place and I will support you the whole way.

553
01:09:34,010 --> 01:09:38,430
So I'm looking forward to your enhanced interior remodel.

554
01:09:38,770 --> 01:09:40,450
So yeah, thank you.

555
01:09:40,850 --> 01:09:45,170
So with that, can we have a roll call on the book?

556
01:09:46,630 --> 01:09:46,750
Yeah.

557
01:09:47,210 --> 01:09:48,230
And we had a motion.

558
01:09:48,490 --> 01:09:49,190
Second is the second.

559
01:09:49,190 --> 01:09:49,730
Okay, wonderful.

560
01:09:50,010 --> 01:09:52,430
So there's a motion a second to approve a resolution

561
01:09:52,430 --> 01:09:56,150
of the planning commission, approving conditional use

562
01:09:56,150 --> 01:10:02,890
permit for CUP-25002, and should we have commissioner

563
01:10:02,890 --> 01:10:13,110
Yes, Commissioner Borsy. Yes. Commissioner Connelly. Yes, Commissioner Cornejo. Yes, Vice Chair Quirk. Yes, and Chair Rodriguez. Yes, motion carries.

564
01:10:24,270 --> 01:10:42,810
Chair. I don't. Would you like me to introduce item five B. Yes, because there's special circumstances from what I got there with there are in regards to five B. We received 11 page letter from an attorney late this afternoon in regards to the site and they brought up a couple of points that we.

565
01:10:43,230 --> 01:10:50,090
believe need to be further evaluated and may require some efforts by some professionals

566
01:10:50,090 --> 01:10:56,110
to prepare some reports that would be informational items back before you. So while we're going to

567
01:10:56,110 --> 01:11:01,750
go ahead and hold the staff presentation tonight and also give the applicant an opportunity to address

568
01:11:02,390 --> 01:11:08,810
you, we anticipate that need for a continuance of this item and we would likely want to continue

569
01:11:08,810 --> 01:11:15,090
to a date certain September 15th but because we did notice it tonight and we want to give both the

570
01:11:15,090 --> 01:11:18,850
applicant and any members of the public that may be interested in commenting on the item.

571
01:11:19,370 --> 01:11:24,310
The opportunity to do so we will go ahead and commence with it but again we won't be asking

572
01:11:24,310 --> 01:11:29,870
you to take an action tonight but rather continuing it to a date certain and again at this point in

573
01:11:29,870 --> 01:11:34,090
time that looks like September 15th and if Rosemary has anything to add to that please do so.

574
01:11:36,260 --> 01:11:50,740
which are sensitive involves the same parties for five B and five C if the commission is comfortable hearing the presentation and from staff and if you wanted to combine motion together.

575
01:11:51,820 --> 01:11:58,420
I think at this point because of the similarity of five B and five C and the same issues that are raised.

576
01:11:59,100 --> 01:12:04,600
It would the commission has the option if you wanted to make one motion as to both items.

577
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:08,860
And also the public hearing as to one public hearing for both.

578
01:12:08,860 --> 01:12:15,560
You can come back if you wanted to make sure that you can have them identify which one they're speaking on if it's not as to both.

579
01:12:15,620 --> 01:12:15,960
Correct.

580
01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:16,300
Okay.

581
01:12:16,340 --> 01:12:17,400
I would like to do that.

582
01:12:17,620 --> 01:12:21,180
So let's continue with the staff presentation on both of these projects.

583
01:12:21,420 --> 01:12:21,540
Yes.

584
01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:23,000
Crystal O'Royo assistant planner.

585
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:24,220
Are we making that presentation?

586
01:12:24,220 --> 01:12:27,480
And I can introduce the item crystal unless you're ready to go now.

587
01:12:28,900 --> 01:12:29,020
Okay.

588
01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:30,140
Very good.

589
01:12:44,030 --> 01:12:44,690
Good evening.

590
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:49,360
Hello.

591
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:52,640
Good evening commissioners and members of the public.

592
01:12:52,980 --> 01:12:55,220
This evening, we'll be discussing development review,

593
01:12:55,400 --> 01:13:04,200
project number DRP22-0110 and variance number VAR25-002.

594
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:10,320
The subject address is 16260 over a crest drive.

595
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:15,120
The site is located at a vacant lot identified as a lot 56.

596
01:13:15,520 --> 01:13:16,240
I'm sorry, 57.

597
01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:24,160
The subject site is located in the H.R. Hillside Resident Roseone, joining us tonight as the

598
01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:35,620
architect David Key and with DK designs, staff, can we allow staff to speak on the, at least give us

599
01:13:35,620 --> 01:13:41,640
a presentation, please. Thank you, call the order. And again, reminder, put the Brown Act you're

600
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:46,140
violating the Brown Act by interfering with a public proceeding on this matter.

601
01:13:46,140 --> 01:13:53,240
Staff would like to note the applicant has submitted two applications for the projects located

602
01:13:53,240 --> 01:13:54,400
side by side.

603
01:13:54,960 --> 01:14:01,200
Both items will be presented this evening, beginning with the project on lot 57, case number

604
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:09,480
DRP-22-0110, and variance number VAR-25-002.

605
01:14:12,010 --> 01:14:18,790
The request is to construct a new three-story single-family residence with an attached two-car garage.

606
01:14:19,370 --> 01:14:21,990
The project also includes a finished basement.

607
01:14:23,750 --> 01:14:32,210
The variance, VAR-25-002, is requesting deviations from the Wittier Municipal Code,

608
01:14:32,210 --> 01:14:39,450
development standards to allow an increase dwelling high while the proposed home will be presented

609
01:14:39,450 --> 01:14:47,410
as a two-story elevation measured from 30 feet 11 inches viewed from over a crest drive.

610
01:14:48,230 --> 01:14:54,910
The overall height measured from the highest point of the roof to the lowest adjacent grade is 41 feet

611
01:14:54,910 --> 01:14:55,730
10 inches.

612
01:14:56,750 --> 01:14:58,570
They increase high it will be visible.

613
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:08,420
The total per postgar footage exceeds a allowable, lower area ratio in the single family zone.

614
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:29,220
The project is categorically exempt from the environmental review process, pursuant to section 15303 class 3, new construction or conversions of small structures of the California environmental quality act.

615
01:15:34,210 --> 01:15:40,170
The project site is located within a gate of community and known as Friendly Hills of

616
01:15:40,170 --> 01:15:44,830
States, with a single family home, with one water reservoir lot.

617
01:15:45,430 --> 01:15:55,630
The subject property is identified as vacant law 57, a year number 8291-041-023.

618
01:16:02,180 --> 01:16:07,340
Due to the significantly sloped topography, the shallow rectangular shape of the parcel,

619
01:16:07,340 --> 01:16:13,540
The site has constraints that significantly restrict the construction of the single-family dwelling.

620
01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:19,700
The architect designs to step down the steep slope to the rear,

621
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:24,380
following the contour of the hillside which is consistent with the neighborhood pattern.

622
01:16:33,540 --> 01:16:40,020
An aerial image illustrates that although the request height of 41 feet is significant,

623
01:16:40,660 --> 01:16:42,930
the home will be contoured into the hillside.

624
01:16:42,930 --> 01:16:49,410
Surrounding properties are two to three stories in height and the over height of the proposed

625
01:16:49,410 --> 01:16:55,210
structure will not be visible or have a noticeable impact on the properties located below.

626
01:17:00,090 --> 01:17:05,290
Attached or images taken from a rural crest drive, the site of the proposed construction

627
01:17:05,290 --> 01:17:10,910
is to illustrate that there is no distinct architectural style in the surrounding neighborhood.

628
01:17:10,910 --> 01:17:14,030
The existing homes are oversized in scale.

629
01:17:14,290 --> 01:17:16,810
Therefore, the proposed dwelling will be consistent

630
01:17:16,810 --> 01:17:18,670
with the overhaul neighborhood character.

631
01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:32,760
These are also images from a rare crash.

632
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:37,220
Declating, showing the height that it is

633
01:17:37,220 --> 01:17:40,620
two-story visible from a rare crash.

634
01:17:41,220 --> 01:17:43,160
And then also, as you can see,

635
01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:46,080
the rear does kind of tailored to three-story,

636
01:17:46,640 --> 01:17:49,320
which the applicant is requesting.

637
01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:50,460
The

638
01:17:53,730 --> 01:17:58,710
image before you is the site showing the ground floor as viewed from a rural crest.

639
01:17:59,250 --> 01:18:06,510
Highlighted in purple is a driveway which features brake papers integrated with landscape strips,

640
01:18:07,070 --> 01:18:12,910
or painting areas, creating a decorative and visually appearing a pilling surface.

641
01:18:13,990 --> 01:18:21,250
Highlighted in green is the proposed front-near landscape design to complement the perry style architecture.

642
01:18:21,250 --> 01:18:29,630
The landscape will comply with the requirement to maintain 60% of the front yard landscape

643
01:18:29,630 --> 01:18:30,230
area.

644
01:18:31,350 --> 01:18:37,570
Highlighted and red is a 2D touch garage which will include interior storage space.

645
01:18:38,350 --> 01:18:44,110
Highlighted and blue is a ground floor interior lot which includes a four-year living room,

646
01:18:44,170 --> 01:18:45,550
dining room and kitchen.

647
01:18:46,330 --> 01:18:50,350
An interior staircase will provide access to both second floor.

648
01:18:50,350 --> 01:18:53,070
and the basement located below.

649
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:02,700
The imagery for you is the second floor plan.

650
01:19:03,220 --> 01:19:05,400
The second floor will house all the bedrooms.

651
01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:08,600
Two of the bedrooms will feature a walk-in closet

652
01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:11,520
with an on-suite bathroom, which showers.

653
01:19:12,480 --> 01:19:16,020
The floor will also include a master retreat bedroom

654
01:19:16,020 --> 01:19:19,420
with spacious walk-in closet and a private bathroom,

655
01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:23,180
an office and a balcony to enjoy the view.

656
01:19:25,580 --> 01:19:31,240
The finished basement will include a family room and rush rooms for providing a convenient

657
01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:33,900
access to the pool that's located at the lower level.

658
01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:49,660
The vacant lot is 10,830 feet in that's calculated at gross, calculated from the center

659
01:19:49,660 --> 01:19:53,900
line of their lower crest, drive which is a private street.

660
01:19:53,900 --> 01:20:00,620
The net is 8,880 square feet, and that's taken from the parcel map.

661
01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:04,460
Here's a breakdown of the finished square footage.

662
01:20:05,420 --> 01:20:10,000
The finished basement is 2,164 square feet.

663
01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:21,160
The ground floor is 2828 square feet, and the second floor is 2,496 square feet.

664
01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:32,540
bringing a total to 7,488 which divided by the lot brings a total of 69 percent FAR.

665
01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:41,380
While staff has been working with the architect, the design of the two stories,

666
01:20:41,620 --> 01:20:47,140
single-family residents, consideration was given to the fact that the home will sit side-by-side.

667
01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:49,960
Although there's no distinct architectural style,

668
01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:56,100
still, established in the neighborhood, staff felt that the Prairie style will complement the existing

669
01:20:56,100 --> 01:21:03,440
neighborhood pattern. Features will include composite wood planks, stacked stone, wood

670
01:21:03,440 --> 01:21:12,200
siding finishes, low-pitch hip roofs, wide-eaves, edifice size, horizontal lines, and front

671
01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:13,480
porch wood square columns.

672
01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:22,820
The features will include composite wood planks, stacked stone,

673
01:21:22,820 --> 01:21:29,660
wide-Eve overhangs, wood planks to emphasize or holds on aligns, the front porch will have a

674
01:21:29,660 --> 01:21:30,700
score porch columns.

675
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:40,540
This image before you is an inspiration that features the

676
01:21:40,540 --> 01:21:46,600
peri architectural style, which it will be carried over to the proposed dwelling.

677
01:21:51,510 --> 01:21:52,310
Based on the

678
01:21:52,310 --> 01:21:58,930
letters, staff received this afternoon from matrix oil corporation, which has been distributed to

679
01:21:58,930 --> 01:22:05,670
the staff recommends that the Planning Commission continue this item to September 15, 2025,

680
01:22:06,230 --> 01:22:10,570
meeting to allow time to receive and review additional technical reports.

681
01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:16,480
This concludes

682
01:22:16,480 --> 01:22:20,600
staff's presentation. The applicant and architect will be available to answer any questions.

683
01:22:21,460 --> 01:22:25,700
Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Harrow. You did a good job.

684
01:22:26,920 --> 01:22:32,160
No worries. Are there any questions of staff from my fellow commissioners?

685
01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:38,750
I don't know, I don't know if I'm just bored of it.

686
01:22:39,070 --> 01:22:39,970
Yes, just real quick.

687
01:22:40,230 --> 01:22:46,090
On the flora area ratio, I thought I heard you say it increase of 69%.

688
01:22:47,390 --> 01:22:53,090
And staff report that I'm looking at on page four indicates 80%.

689
01:22:53,090 --> 01:22:55,670
Is that what's the difference?

690
01:22:55,670 --> 01:23:00,530
And I'm sorry that's the for a lot of 57

691
01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:18,560
so you're looking at pages that's just page 4 of 8

692
01:23:24,090 --> 01:23:32,110
Oh this one shows that every hour at 77 this one the architect did you know me a revised

693
01:23:32,110 --> 01:23:40,570
with a corrected breakdown of this work footage. So this line is actually going to be what

694
01:23:40,570 --> 01:23:49,530
staff presented in the. So what have been 69 percent? It's going to be 69. And what's

695
01:23:49,530 --> 01:23:55,390
the other one? The one that's shown in the plans is showing that it's 77 percent. 69.

696
01:23:58,970 --> 01:24:04,410
So is it 69% increase on both of them?

697
01:24:04,630 --> 01:24:06,450
No, this is just for a lot, 57.

698
01:24:09,610 --> 01:24:10,870
I still have a presentation.

699
01:24:12,010 --> 01:24:12,130
Okay.

700
01:24:12,870 --> 01:24:13,170
Okay.

701
01:24:14,270 --> 01:24:19,370
And on the rear lot, it says approximately 10 feet.

702
01:24:20,270 --> 01:24:21,110
Why is that approximate?

703
01:24:22,450 --> 01:24:23,670
So it shouldn't be approximate.

704
01:24:23,670 --> 01:24:28,030
I will go ahead and defer that to the applicant. We'll work on getting that corrected.

705
01:24:28,190 --> 01:24:30,230
It's going to be 10 feet from the property line.

706
01:24:30,790 --> 01:24:34,390
Okay. So this is a box in that specific zone as 10 feet.

707
01:24:34,830 --> 01:24:35,330
Thank you.

708
01:24:43,100 --> 01:24:44,560
I'm sorry. Was there a question?

709
01:24:45,560 --> 01:24:47,880
Vice Chair Quirk, do you have a question on the project?

710
01:24:49,400 --> 01:24:55,380
No, just if when we come back for the continuance, if we can come back with other properties

711
01:24:55,380 --> 01:24:59,320
have similar variances, I do have that information that

712
01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:07,940
That's the fact that there are properties that are working on a work process that do you see the worry for?

713
01:25:12,310 --> 01:25:13,790
Okay. If we have as part of the presentation.

714
01:25:17,870 --> 01:25:24,610
We'll also have the architect fix the, the final, how can revise the finds that they actually email me this morning?

715
01:25:25,410 --> 01:25:29,830
Yeah. My only comment was on the, on the rear property line.

716
01:25:29,830 --> 01:25:37,830
If they could include a sketch of what that fence line would look like, as well, because the pool is right up against the property line.

717
01:25:38,330 --> 01:25:42,450
And so my other question is, is the pool, does it have to abide by the setback as well?

718
01:25:42,690 --> 01:25:43,250
It's a structure.

719
01:25:44,270 --> 01:25:46,970
So I don't expect an answer to know, but I went on the continuum.

720
01:25:47,570 --> 01:25:48,930
Maybe we can come back and agree.

721
01:25:50,370 --> 01:25:53,490
The architect did provide a cross section of the...

722
01:25:53,490 --> 01:25:56,970
I did see the cross section, but it's only the side of the house.

723
01:25:56,970 --> 01:26:00,990
And the elevation only covers the portion of the house,

724
01:26:01,230 --> 01:26:04,530
not the extent of the wall or the fence, yeah.

725
01:26:04,970 --> 01:26:05,670
OK, so it shouldn't fit.

726
01:26:05,690 --> 01:26:08,190
I just want to see how it looks, you know,

727
01:26:08,350 --> 01:26:10,690
with the relationships with the fence.

728
01:26:11,410 --> 01:26:12,750
OK, that's all I have.

729
01:26:12,910 --> 01:26:13,690
Thank you.

730
01:26:14,030 --> 01:26:14,490
I do.

731
01:26:18,750 --> 01:26:21,290
OK, well, at this point, you're actually

732
01:26:21,290 --> 01:26:23,990
welcome to come in with what you're doing now in response.

733
01:26:24,030 --> 01:26:27,050
So if you have any responses to any comments or questions,

734
01:26:27,810 --> 01:26:28,930
please do so.

735
01:26:28,930 --> 01:26:30,630
And please take your name for the record.

736
01:26:30,930 --> 01:26:31,890
My name is David K.

737
01:26:32,230 --> 01:26:35,650
I'm the one who David K. Design Collaborative Studio.

738
01:26:35,870 --> 01:26:39,150
I'm an architect, licensed in 35, 833.

739
01:26:41,830 --> 01:26:45,790
I guess approximate in the words here is not approximate.

740
01:26:46,170 --> 01:26:47,670
It's definitely 10 feet.

741
01:26:48,710 --> 01:26:51,970
So I don't know if my plans indicate that is should.

742
01:26:52,030 --> 01:26:57,110
I don't think I use an approximate for any of these setbacks

743
01:26:57,110 --> 01:27:04,050
on the dimensions in our architectural plans, so that can be a typo, the pool is a little

744
01:27:04,050 --> 01:27:07,890
step back from the, from the proper rear property line,

745
01:27:10,430 --> 01:27:11,530
just to answer those questions.

746
01:27:12,110 --> 01:27:14,290
I don't know if there's any other questions I was in over here.

747
01:27:14,710 --> 01:27:18,650
Any questions of the applicant, Commissioner Cornel, okay?

748
01:27:19,010 --> 01:27:19,430
Commissioner Cornel?

749
01:27:20,390 --> 01:27:21,270
Commissioner Cornel?

750
01:27:21,330 --> 01:27:21,490
Commissioner Cornel?

751
01:27:22,090 --> 01:27:22,590
Commissioner Cornel?

752
01:27:22,930 --> 01:27:23,550
Sorry about that.

753
01:27:27,130 --> 01:27:36,550
Okay, at this point we'll open up the public hearing for this project and take any testimony that anybody would want to come up to the podium or on the cue.

754
01:27:38,450 --> 01:27:46,810
And being that that said do we not take public hearing for the other projects and said did not get presented yet or can we that's that was a confusion.

755
01:27:47,510 --> 01:27:56,930
Since staff did a presentation just on Lot 57, we'll proceed with Lot 57 currently, go through the whole item as a separate item and then we'll hear from staff on.

756
01:27:57,250 --> 01:28:01,690
Okay. So we're opening up the public hearing for this particular house right now.

757
01:28:05,110 --> 01:28:10,730
Mr. applicant, if you can sit take a seat and allow anybody to come up for a public comment. Thank you.

758
01:28:14,070 --> 01:28:21,130
So at this point we'll take public testimony from the public in the audience regarding this this item on the with the project.

759
01:28:21,130 --> 01:28:22,930
Thank you.

760
01:28:22,930 --> 01:28:23,910
Stay turning, please.

761
01:28:24,770 --> 01:28:27,330
I just don't understand how there's so many people

762
01:28:27,330 --> 01:28:29,250
of color appointed to these positions.

763
01:28:30,030 --> 01:28:33,870
When you have a very visible racist on your committee

764
01:28:33,870 --> 01:28:37,530
and then you don't even stand up for your own people

765
01:28:37,530 --> 01:28:39,930
to remove a very visible racist.

766
01:28:40,230 --> 01:28:41,410
What is wrong with you?

767
01:28:41,590 --> 01:28:42,950
It's disgusting, it's shameful.

768
01:28:44,470 --> 01:28:45,850
I'm over here by the way, Ivan.

769
01:28:47,550 --> 01:28:48,090
Hello?

770
01:28:48,490 --> 01:28:48,790
Hello?

771
01:28:49,310 --> 01:28:49,910
Hello?

772
01:28:49,910 --> 01:28:52,290
Excuse me, can we just address?

773
01:28:52,330 --> 01:28:53,130
No, that's okay.

774
01:28:53,450 --> 01:28:53,490
Yeah.

775
01:28:54,290 --> 01:28:55,190
I saw a widier.

776
01:28:55,350 --> 01:28:57,850
That is our number one priority right now.

777
01:28:58,190 --> 01:29:00,830
Nothing else is more important than that right now in widier.

778
01:29:01,330 --> 01:29:02,290
People are being disappeared.

779
01:29:02,530 --> 01:29:03,630
Families are being separated.

780
01:29:04,250 --> 01:29:05,450
They're brutally being kidnapped.

781
01:29:05,870 --> 01:29:06,510
It's disgusting.

782
01:29:06,810 --> 01:29:11,550
And I'm pretty sure at least one of y'all have seen a video on social media that how can

783
01:29:11,550 --> 01:29:14,050
you watch that and still stand here, complicit.

784
01:29:14,610 --> 01:29:15,950
Disgusting and shameful.

785
01:29:16,590 --> 01:29:19,130
You know that your comments have nothing at a widier.

786
01:29:19,130 --> 01:29:26,270
Richard out of the plethora your comment are going to be castle because there's nothing particular about your comments regarding this project

787
01:29:29,090 --> 01:29:32,150
Anybody else for this project in the audience

788
01:29:32,830 --> 01:29:34,990
Okay anybody in the queue

789
01:29:36,530 --> 01:29:38,450
Don't want in the queue raising their hand

790
01:29:38,450 --> 01:29:39,350
Okay

791
01:29:39,350 --> 01:29:44,210
At this point where there's no decision be made, so there's not going to be any consideration

792
01:29:45,510 --> 01:29:51,150
So can I hear a motion to continue its core is it the 19th of August?

793
01:29:52,390 --> 01:29:53,590
September 15th.

794
01:29:53,770 --> 01:29:54,630
September 15th.

795
01:29:54,630 --> 01:29:55,790
We would want a motion.

796
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:07,760
We have a motion for 9.15, can I have a motion for 9.15, please, continue to continue.

797
01:30:15,710 --> 01:30:19,330
We have a motion and a second, do we have a vote?

798
01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:29,100
Commissioner Borsy. Yes. Commissioner Connelly. Yes. Commissioner Cornejo. Yes. Vice Chair Quirk. Yes. Chair Rodriguez. Yes.

799
01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:32,720
Motion carries to continue the item to September 15. Okay.

800
01:30:33,840 --> 01:30:42,200
And next item is five. Please. Yes. Item five. See before you is again a property next door to the one you just heard.

801
01:30:42,340 --> 01:30:47,000
And there are many similarities. So Crystal will provide you a brief presentation on that item.

802
01:30:47,000 --> 01:30:53,060
And then the recommendation would be similar to the first in that we recommend that you consider it today.

803
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:59,180
And open the public hearing and pertaining to the applicant and any other people that may want to speak in regards to the project.

804
01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:08,680
And then continue it to a date certain not being September 15th, where we can provide you some additional information regarding the project.

805
01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:12,620
Would that crystal a royal? Please go ahead and do the presentation.

806
01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:21,180
So, this property, as Ben mentioned, is done by the same architect and the R side by side.

807
01:31:21,620 --> 01:31:27,440
This one is going to be a lot of 56, also in the HR Hill side residential zone.

808
01:31:28,340 --> 01:31:29,640
Let's see.

809
01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:32,020
We'll go ahead and move over to the request.

810
01:31:33,540 --> 01:31:39,100
The applicant is requesting to construct a three-story single-family residence within a touch garage.

811
01:31:39,100 --> 01:31:42,240
The project also includes a basement.

812
01:31:43,340 --> 01:31:51,480
Variants request for VAR25-001 is requesting deviations from the Whittier Municipal

813
01:31:52,100 --> 01:31:56,500
Development Standards to allow the increase in the dwelling height.

814
01:31:57,100 --> 01:32:03,400
While the proposed home will present as a two-story elevation measured at 30 feet, 11 inches,

815
01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:10,140
when viewed from over a crest stripe, the overall height measured from the highest point of the roof

816
01:32:10,140 --> 01:32:18,260
to the lowest adjacent grade is 41% 10 inches. This increase, the increase in height will be

817
01:32:18,260 --> 01:32:24,340
visible from the distance to the surrounding neighbors at the rear. This morning the applicant requested

818
01:32:24,340 --> 01:32:33,320
to amend variance number 25-001 to include deviations from the Whittier Municipal Code to order

819
01:32:33,320 --> 01:32:42,440
the increase the maximum allowable for every ratio to 40 percent to 65 percent. Staffs would

820
01:32:42,440 --> 01:32:48,900
also like to clarify that the public noticed distributed for this project did reference the

821
01:32:48,900 --> 01:32:55,000
request for both height and as they are. However, following the mailing of the notice,

822
01:32:55,360 --> 01:33:01,760
the architect revised the plans to convert the basement into an ADU and junior ADU, which are exempt

823
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:04,400
from the law coverage and FDR calculations.

824
01:33:05,520 --> 01:33:06,760
Following staff's presentation,

825
01:33:07,100 --> 01:33:09,680
the applicant will provide additional information regarding

826
01:33:09,680 --> 01:33:10,820
the variance request.

827
01:33:14,480 --> 01:33:16,660
This project is categorically examined

828
01:33:16,660 --> 01:33:18,700
from the environmental process,

829
01:33:18,840 --> 01:33:22,160
pursuing two sections, one, five, three,

830
01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:24,620
zero, three, class three, new constructions,

831
01:33:24,740 --> 01:33:26,960
or conversions of small structures,

832
01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:38,120
The project site is located within a gate of community known as

833
01:33:38,120 --> 01:33:39,200
Spirinley Hills of States.

834
01:33:40,220 --> 01:33:41,940
I identified as law 56.

835
01:33:42,400 --> 01:33:51,060
I identified AINN number 8291-341-22, same as the previous

836
01:33:51,060 --> 01:34:00,060
slot, do the significantly slow topography. There are some site constraints for the construction,

837
01:34:00,660 --> 01:34:08,700
so the architect did design the property to contour the hillside, which will be consistent

838
01:34:08,700 --> 01:34:15,700
with the neighbor as you can see here in this picture as well, where they also have basement,

839
01:34:15,700 --> 01:34:24,160
But I've seen from the work across it is 30 feet, which is the allowable maximum height in the HR zone.

840
01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:35,680
Again, this area, aerial image, although the request and height of 41 feet is significant.

841
01:34:36,960 --> 01:34:44,700
Again, the house will be constructed to contour the hillside due to it being significantly slow.

842
01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:55,480
And there are consistent within that area, two to three stories, so the new development will be consistent with the neighborhood.

843
01:34:59,860 --> 01:35:13,700
Let's see, so again, along over a crest, these are neighboring homes that do appear 30 feet, which is the allowable max height, and then again from the rear.

844
01:35:13,700 --> 01:35:20,000
They do, as they continue down, follow the great slope.

845
01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:32,820
The image before you, again, is, is mirroring the same as a lot of 57 showing the ground floor,

846
01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:40,080
where you have the, again, highlighted in purple is going to feature the driveway featuring

847
01:35:40,080 --> 01:35:47,680
the brick pavers with some landscape strips planted to create more of a visual

848
01:35:47,680 --> 01:35:55,940
pilling surface. Highlighting green is going to be highlighting the 60% landscape and then

849
01:35:55,940 --> 01:36:02,350
also in red is showing the two car garage with the storage and then in blue is going to be

850
01:36:02,350 --> 01:36:06,490
the proposed floor plan, which will include the 4-year

851
01:36:06,490 --> 01:36:09,190
building dining room and kitchen.

852
01:36:10,990 --> 01:36:15,270
The interior staircase that will provide access to the second floor

853
01:36:15,270 --> 01:36:17,230
as well as the finished basement.

854
01:36:20,330 --> 01:36:24,350
The second floor is also going to be housing

855
01:36:24,350 --> 01:36:29,590
the bedrooms two of the bedrooms will feature a walking closet

856
01:36:29,590 --> 01:36:37,430
Again, with an honestly, with the bathroom, the floor will also include the master bedroom,

857
01:36:37,570 --> 01:36:48,390
master bath, bucket closet and an office and then this one, it also features the balcony as well.

858
01:36:51,030 --> 01:36:56,270
So again, this site shows the basement that was going to be converted to the ADU in

859
01:36:56,270 --> 01:37:02,490
you need to do but per the applicants request this morning is for it to be a finished basement

860
01:37:03,590 --> 01:37:10,750
showing the dining space and then also access to the pool that would also be on the same level.

861
01:37:14,200 --> 01:37:18,360
This one is going to be the square footage breakdown for a lot of 56.

862
01:37:19,760 --> 01:37:28,260
This one again is what the architect provided me which will reflect when we meet again on September 15.

863
01:37:28,800 --> 01:37:32,400
and that's also including the applicants request

864
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:35,440
for the increase in the floor area ratio.

865
01:37:39,650 --> 01:37:41,950
Again, while staff was working with the architect,

866
01:37:42,610 --> 01:37:46,630
we felt that although the properties are side by side,

867
01:37:47,030 --> 01:37:51,010
both the prairie architecture using different materials,

868
01:37:51,490 --> 01:37:55,410
offset in colors, both felt that it would be compatible

869
01:37:55,410 --> 01:37:59,690
for the neighborhood given that there's not an established

870
01:37:59,690 --> 01:38:03,950
neighborhood architecture in that in that area.

871
01:38:07,690 --> 01:38:10,410
Again, in the building materials, it will consist

872
01:38:10,410 --> 01:38:17,690
of composite wood planks in color Spanish walnut, which would be this darker. So the property

873
01:38:17,690 --> 01:38:23,410
next door is going to feature more of the lighter cover. Colors, this lot is going to feature

874
01:38:23,410 --> 01:38:30,850
a lot of the darker colors, like with a stone, more of a gray color of the rift tile, and then

875
01:38:30,850 --> 01:38:36,790
Also, the wood planks are going to be a little bit more lighter, that's going to complement the stockstone.

876
01:38:38,990 --> 01:38:43,250
Again, the inspiration for the architecture is going to be a prairie style.

877
01:38:44,230 --> 01:38:50,170
While I was driving in that neighborhood, again, there's not one specific neighborhood architectural design.

878
01:38:50,970 --> 01:39:02,190
So given the massing, the articulation, staff did come to a conclusion with the architect that the prairie style would be

879
01:39:02,190 --> 01:39:07,590
compatible with that neighborhood, given the bridge building materials.

880
01:39:12,640 --> 01:39:18,160
So again, staff recommends based on the letter that we received for us to continue the

881
01:39:18,160 --> 01:39:25,120
site to September 15th to allow time to receive and review the additional technical reports.

882
01:39:25,900 --> 01:39:29,200
As of now, we're asking for September 15th.

883
01:39:31,590 --> 01:39:33,730
There's a concludes task presentation.

884
01:39:33,730 --> 01:39:36,050
then the applicant and architect are available

885
01:39:36,050 --> 01:39:37,530
to answer any question.

886
01:39:38,630 --> 01:39:41,330
Any questions of staff commissioner, Cornell?

887
01:39:42,230 --> 01:39:42,710
No questions.

888
01:39:43,370 --> 01:39:46,250
Any questions, Mr. Koley? Mr. Wardsey?

889
01:39:46,650 --> 01:39:47,830
Just a couple.

890
01:39:49,490 --> 01:39:54,810
The architect in this package submitted the floor area ratio

891
01:39:54,810 --> 01:39:58,890
of area buildings that were surrounded by it.

892
01:39:59,010 --> 01:40:01,570
And I was just wondering, did we verify any of those?

893
01:40:01,570 --> 01:40:02,610
for the variance request?

894
01:40:03,130 --> 01:40:05,350
Yeah, you're very, okay, because on the 15th

895
01:40:05,350 --> 01:40:08,510
for both the flora area ratio and the height,

896
01:40:08,630 --> 01:40:10,490
if you could get, if you can get some information

897
01:40:10,490 --> 01:40:12,150
in regards to the neighborhood,

898
01:40:12,730 --> 01:40:15,190
how much, and how many people have exceeded

899
01:40:15,190 --> 01:40:16,730
and where are out, that would be helpful.

900
01:40:16,750 --> 01:40:19,690
That would be a longer, a lower crest that do exceed.

901
01:40:20,030 --> 01:40:26,690
And there, one is 41%, 47, and then one is 70%.

902
01:40:26,690 --> 01:40:28,490
Yeah, just because my concern is, you know,

903
01:40:29,430 --> 01:40:30,890
once, a lot of times when you do variances,

904
01:40:30,890 --> 01:40:36,290
that becomes the rule. And once you offer it for someone, you need to offer it for others.

905
01:40:36,630 --> 01:40:41,230
So I just want to be careful about our actions. Thank you.

906
01:40:44,680 --> 01:40:53,800
Questions? Vice Chair? No. At this point, we'll invite the applicant to come up and respond to

907
01:40:53,800 --> 01:41:00,160
the bill. I'm going to answer questions. Yeah, on this one. And Ma'am, right after he's able to

908
01:41:00,160 --> 01:41:07,240
you'll have the opportunity to speak. So if you would at mind the applicant gets to speak first, and then you'll have an opportunity.

909
01:41:08,120 --> 01:41:11,440
I understand, but there's still a procedure. Thank you. Go ahead, sir.

910
01:41:18,350 --> 01:41:22,130
Correct. This is for five C. Five. Thank you, sir. Please proceed.

911
01:41:22,590 --> 01:41:27,630
Any responses to the comments you've heard, and then if there's any questions, my all means be.

912
01:41:29,950 --> 01:41:31,730
Hello? Yeah. Yeah, it works.

913
01:41:32,870 --> 01:41:41,770
So go ahead proceed. If there's any responses for any comments that. Okay. I'm also hoping the ADUJDUB

914
01:41:41,770 --> 01:41:48,670
the last resort for me to add some square footage. It's going to be the same similar variance

915
01:41:48,670 --> 01:41:51,630
request as lock 57.

916
01:41:54,710 --> 01:41:59,630
I'm not quite sure about the other question that he was asking. So,

917
01:42:00,250 --> 01:42:06,250
you're asking something about the other neighborhoods. We did a research on the other

918
01:42:06,250 --> 01:42:14,150
neighborhoods with FAR. Just along that street on the sides, I had indicated, I only went as far

919
01:42:14,150 --> 01:42:20,970
research in ten neighborhoods and they are exceeded FAR up to 70 percent and that's

920
01:42:20,970 --> 01:42:23,450
pointed out I think in page

921
01:42:41,650 --> 01:42:45,470
I may that's part of attachment D yeah it's on

922
01:42:45,470 --> 01:42:49,090
better and that's an exhibit attached behind it correct David is that they're

923
01:42:49,090 --> 01:42:55,150
one the referentive yes it's after attachment D and that could go ahead and tell

924
01:42:55,150 --> 01:43:00,250
which act that information provided it's an exhibits and that's fine I got this

925
01:43:00,250 --> 01:43:06,690
title. And, by the way, these are immigrants moving into this community. They plan to bring

926
01:43:06,690 --> 01:43:10,950
their businesses along to the community with you. They love the community and they

927
01:43:10,950 --> 01:43:12,310
wish to live here.

928
01:43:14,700 --> 01:43:18,020
Okay, any further questions from fellow commissioners?

929
01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:20,840
Not a blab, but can't thank you.

930
01:43:20,980 --> 01:43:25,140
It's calling? At this time. Mr. Boisey? Mr. Quirk?

931
01:43:25,420 --> 01:43:30,740
Nope. Okay. Again, at this time, I'm looking for a motion for continuance, same as before,

932
01:43:30,740 --> 01:43:32,940
And then a second as well.

933
01:43:33,220 --> 01:43:37,520
And before you do that, I do believe you want to take comments on the public because generally.

934
01:43:38,580 --> 01:43:40,520
So you're not one person or this.

935
01:43:40,520 --> 01:43:43,880
For this second project, we are opening it up for a public hearing.

936
01:43:44,620 --> 01:43:46,580
So it has to pertain to this project.

937
01:43:46,900 --> 01:43:48,400
Please state your name and proceed.

938
01:43:55,240 --> 01:43:57,900
My name is Richard Resign.

939
01:43:58,580 --> 01:44:00,020
Let's start here.

940
01:44:00,180 --> 01:44:06,780
We're sitting here, watching you guys go over Lot 62 and talk about our

941
01:44:06,780 --> 01:44:12,980
a sexual prairie style roof tile, dark aesthetic, a three-story family home.

942
01:44:13,300 --> 01:44:16,520
You think families are going to want to live here with him sitting like?

943
01:44:19,600 --> 01:44:25,680
I know that some of you are like, my hands are tired, I can't do anything, I can't, yeah, you can.

944
01:44:25,980 --> 01:44:32,300
You also have a voice. You also have your own brain. You also have your own ideology and your own sentiment.

945
01:44:32,940 --> 01:44:37,540
And you're still deciding to sit there and allow for him to be present

946
01:44:37,540 --> 01:44:40,820
amongst the group of people who also don't want in here.

947
01:44:40,960 --> 01:44:42,920
Hold on, I'll go back to talking about your structure.

948
01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:45,520
It's just so that we're on the same page, right?

949
01:44:49,610 --> 01:44:50,890
Two car garage.

950
01:44:52,890 --> 01:44:55,230
It's so crazy because in the video regularly,

951
01:44:55,590 --> 01:44:57,630
we pretty much see ice vehicles all over the place.

952
01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:15,380
When we talk about garages, usually for us we have to fear looking in them, letting our families go into them. It's kind of crazy how we're just talking about a random building, a random family home that doesn't fucking matter right now.

953
01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:27,640
Well, matters right now is the protection of our people, and obviously there's like none. Project management, and I get that you guys are all part of that. What are you guys doing for the community that's being affected for the race?

954
01:45:27,640 --> 01:45:36,040
I'm sorry, how is this relatable to this project and because we're talking about families and if this is being made for a family.

955
01:45:37,300 --> 01:45:41,260
But yet we're allowing for other families to be destroyed. Why would this even be made?

956
01:45:41,940 --> 01:45:54,520
What future does will your hold for future families and generations to come if we're allowing for, you know, I'm sorry, but this is not relevant to the project. There's a purpose for these reviews. So thank you very much for your time. Thank you.

957
01:45:59,770 --> 01:46:04,490
Chair Rodriguez, we do have one speaker in the queue that is raising their hand to speak at this time.

958
01:46:04,670 --> 01:46:08,330
Okay. All enable their microphone. Thank you.

959
01:46:10,170 --> 01:46:15,770
Christian is really in. If you can please unmute your microphone and state your comments for

960
01:46:18,730 --> 01:46:20,290
for the commission.

961
01:46:24,540 --> 01:46:25,980
Hi, did you think everyone?

962
01:46:25,980 --> 01:46:30,940
Um, if everyone's doing great. Sorry, I jumped on late.

963
01:46:31,060 --> 01:46:34,180
So this is called sweating and to comment on the other one, but I'll

964
01:46:34,760 --> 01:46:37,900
limit my comments to five C. Um,

965
01:46:38,380 --> 01:46:44,200
invariance is generally I'm a little bit concerned that the city is relying

966
01:46:44,200 --> 01:46:48,320
more on variances than actually amending the code.

967
01:46:49,160 --> 01:46:53,980
When we keep relying on variances, there's a clear problem with the zoning code.

968
01:46:53,980 --> 01:47:00,860
The zoning code is not applicable to the people, the applicants that are submitting their applications.

969
01:47:02,540 --> 01:47:08,420
And they want, I don't know what this applicant wants, they want an increase in FAR, whatever it is.

970
01:47:09,020 --> 01:47:14,440
But we should take another look at the zoning code if we keep getting variants applications.

971
01:47:14,440 --> 01:47:23,720
And my second point is, variances have a very, very, very strict legal standard.

972
01:47:24,540 --> 01:47:28,000
You can't just be willing, nearly, approving variances.

973
01:47:28,620 --> 01:47:32,220
You can ask city council on that question.

974
01:47:32,640 --> 01:47:35,380
There's a very specific standards called undue hardship.

975
01:47:36,260 --> 01:47:43,760
I don't want to get into nitty gritty with this specific applicant about if they qualify for a variance or not.

976
01:47:45,780 --> 01:47:53,780
But you know, I'm of the opinion that we should be allowing people to build what they want to build on their property.

977
01:47:54,680 --> 01:48:01,080
And that includes if you want to expand a little bit on your property, have more people living your house.

978
01:48:01,540 --> 01:48:05,760
So be it. That's your own property. That's all I have to say.

979
01:48:08,760 --> 01:48:09,600
Thank you.

980
01:48:13,610 --> 01:48:14,230
Thank you.

981
01:48:14,410 --> 01:48:15,190
Anybody else in the queue?

982
01:48:15,190 --> 01:48:18,130
Right, there are no additional speakers in the queue.

983
01:48:18,570 --> 01:48:24,090
OK, anybody else in the public for this project to speak on?

984
01:48:24,210 --> 01:48:27,550
Seeing none, I moved to close the public hearing,

985
01:48:28,470 --> 01:48:31,570
and looking for a motion for the continuance and the second.

986
01:48:32,510 --> 01:48:34,090
All move for a continuance?

987
01:48:35,010 --> 01:48:36,390
Two a certain date?

988
01:48:36,550 --> 01:48:39,190
Two, September 15th, 2025.

989
01:48:39,830 --> 01:48:40,450
What she said?

990
01:48:40,450 --> 01:48:46,990
A motion the second to continue DRP-22.

991
01:48:48,130 --> 01:48:56,190
Let's see it's 0109 and VAR-25001 to September 15th, 2025.

992
01:48:57,170 --> 01:48:59,770
And that's Commissioner Borsy.

993
01:49:01,670 --> 01:49:03,450
Yeah, we're doing a roll call.

994
01:49:03,610 --> 01:49:03,930
Yes.

995
01:49:04,350 --> 01:49:04,570
All right.

996
01:49:04,770 --> 01:49:05,050
Vote.

997
01:49:06,470 --> 01:49:07,390
Commissioner Connolly?

998
01:49:07,390 --> 01:49:07,890
Yes.

999
01:49:08,950 --> 01:49:15,150
Commissioner Cornet Hill? Yes. Vice Chair Quirk? Yes. And Chair Rodriguez? Yes. Okay.

1000
01:49:16,490 --> 01:49:20,170
It's continued to September 15th, 2025.

1001
01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:26,460
At this point, we're going to move on to Secretary

1002
01:49:26,460 --> 01:49:34,220
comments. Very briefly. PAH went to design review board a couple of last few weeks and we'll

1003
01:49:34,220 --> 01:49:39,500
be coming your way in several months. That's a large medical office building about 105,000 square feet

1004
01:49:39,500 --> 01:49:42,660
are on Washington, on vacant land, that P.I.E.

1005
01:49:42,660 --> 01:49:42,940
Jones.

1006
01:49:43,080 --> 01:49:44,380
So that's coming your direction.

1007
01:49:45,660 --> 01:49:48,540
We'll also have short-term rentals before you,

1008
01:49:48,640 --> 01:49:50,940
at some point in the coming months.

1009
01:49:51,460 --> 01:49:55,320
And I did want to commend Eduardo and Crystal for doing a good job tonight.

1010
01:49:55,700 --> 01:49:56,720
I made the difficulty.

1011
01:49:57,120 --> 01:49:59,600
I think it was at Eduardo's first presentation before you.

1012
01:49:59,700 --> 01:50:02,400
So what a first to have before you tonight.

1013
01:50:03,140 --> 01:50:04,820
But thank you for your patience, everyone.

1014
01:50:05,280 --> 01:50:06,220
I appreciate it.

1015
01:50:09,380 --> 01:50:10,040
Thank you, Ben.

1016
01:50:10,820 --> 01:50:21,480
At this point, we'll do an item number seven, commissioner comments, conference reports, and we will start with commissioner.

1017
01:50:21,520 --> 01:50:23,400
We're already took item seven at the top of the meeting.

1018
01:50:23,480 --> 01:50:25,460
We did. Okay, so we're not going to address that anymore.

1019
01:50:25,800 --> 01:50:26,220
adjournment.

1020
01:50:26,380 --> 01:50:27,240
We adjourned. Okay.

1021
01:50:27,940 --> 01:50:32,100
At this meeting at this moment, we're going to go ahead and adjourn the meeting. Thank you.
