Councilman Sanfilipo stated that the Council and all developments had to respect its neighbors. The proposed development would create so much traffic that it would negatively impact the quality of life of Redwood City residents, including Woodside Road, and he had real concerns about the compatibility issues. Planning Director Patterson advised that many of the questions asked at the meeting were answered in the Certified EIR, described the legal procedures available to the Council after the developer requests actions to proceed, and the consequences of those decisions: Director Patterson described all the hearings that were forthcoming including, Article 34 Prezoning that allows the City to prezone land before annexation, options to prezone which are "GI" General Industrial District and "IP" Industrial Park District, annexation and LAFCO approval, development agreement prior to annexation, tentative map, planned development permit, final map, and the architectural and building permits. In response to Council questions Director Patterson stated it would be difficult to guess how long that whole process would take. Vice Mayor Hartnett advised that it was up to the developer to choose to go forward and apply for the needed approvals and permits, and if the City were to receive an application requesting numerous action items that were on the above list, the City would have in its discretion to choose which would go first, and the prezoning would be the simplest of the decisions to make. Director Patterson agreed and advised that doing the prezone first would be the simplest and most direct way to go as it gives a clear indication what the Council wants to do with this development. After that decision several of the other actions could be bundled together. City Attorney Schricker advised that the City could only respond to what the developer puts before it.
