8A Page 3 Planning Commission Action The Planning Commission initially acted on this item on June 5, 2007 when they initiated General Plan and Zoning Map Amendments for the subject properties. Subsequently, the Planning Commission met on May 20, 2008 and reviewed the application at a joint public hearing with the Zoning Administrator. A Public Hearing notice on the joint Planning Commission and Zoning Administrator public hearing was sent to property owners within 300 feet of the bounds of the subject sites, as well as to other interested parties, and was published in the local newspaper, in compliance with the CEQA, S8 18 Tribal Notification requirements, and Article 49 of the Zoning Ordinance which regulates public hearings. No members of the public were on hand to speak to the item. The Planning Commission unanimously voted to approve the Draft IS/MND. The Planning Commission members expressed support for the project and unanimously voted to recommend that the City Council approve the General Plan and Zoning Map Amendments. After the close of the public hearing and the Planning Commission portion of the meeting, the Zoning Administrator reviewed the remaining Planned Development Permit and Use Permit applications. The Zoning Administrator cannot act on these remaining applications until the City Council acts on the General Plan and Zoning Map Amendments. Action on this matter will need to be taken by the Zoning Administrator subsequent to City Council action. (See list below of related documents available in City Clerk's office). ALTERNATIVES The "No action" alternative is the only alternative available to the Council. Under the "No action" alternative, the General Plan and Zoning Map Amendments would not be approved and the Planned Development and Use Permits would not be granted. The project would not occur and would not bring existing non-conforming land uses into conformance. FISCAL IMPACT MHASMC applied for and received $748,494 in CD8G and HOME funds from the City Council in April 2006 for site acquisition in order to develop the 15-unit residential project. MHASMC is responsible for any additional needed funds for the project.
