9:10 p.m. — Consensus from Council to postpone the Photo Red Light Enforcement <br /> Technology, item 9B, to a later date. <br /> Public Comment: <br /> Scott Davis, representing the owner, requested the Peninsula Marina Office Park be <br /> removed from the moratorium proposal. He stated that the General Plan adopted in 1990 <br /> and amended several times has served the City well with Redwood Shores, Midpoint <br /> Technology Center and Seaport Centre as well as serving his project. <br /> Mark Melby, representing the Peninsula Marina Office Pazk, stated that the project would <br /> promote road improvements through widening of the existing road and the Blomquist Road <br /> extension making the azea more efficient. He stated the time and demand is right for. a <br /> concerted effort to plan and complete a Bair Island azea that works. <br /> Richard Shapiro, representing the Peninsula Marina Office Pazk, stated the site is isolated <br /> with no neighborhood services and if more housing is built in the area it exacerbates the <br /> emergency services issue. The owners are willing to participate in funding the Specific Plan <br /> study and Blomquist extension. He urged Council to be more flexible and possibly utilize a <br /> Development Agreement approach. <br /> Edward Davidovits stated imposing a blanket moratorium on conversions of industrial <br /> buildings without considering each project on a one on one basis would be taking a step <br /> backward in progress. <br /> Todd Lewis, working with Mel's Bowl site owners, stated the family has waited a very long <br /> time to benefit from the great location. He stated an application has been submitted for an <br /> office building development and the moratorium would present a hardship to the family. <br /> Recess — 9:45-9:56 p.m. <br /> i) M/S Hartnett/Pierce to introduce an INTERIM URGENCY ORDINANCE <br /> PROHIBITING OFFICE DEVELOPMENT ON PARCELS OF PROPERTY ONE <br /> ACRE OR LARGER WITHIN THE "CG" (GENERAL COMMERCIAL), "CG-R" <br /> (GENERAL COMMERCIAL-RESIDENTIAL COMBINING), "CB" (CENTRAL <br /> BUSINESS), AND "CN" (NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL) ZONING <br /> DISTRICTS IN THE CITY OF REDWOOD CITY.
