18:38 – 18:58•Joel Neel

Yeah, I guess my only concern is this entitlement adds value to the property and could be used in a negotiation for the sale. I don't know, has the property owner been in contact about this grant and the sale of the property?

19:06•Joel Neel

I'd just be concerned that they could use it for a bit of leverage.

27:26•Joel Neel

Thank you. Commissioner Neal. So, Katie, this would still fit under a 32 exemption, a categorical exemption, right, for infill? Correct. So even with the additional units?

27:52•Joel Neel

And I suspect the additional traffic is minuscule.

57:21 – 57:37•Joel Neel

I'm trying. I'd like to move approval of Resolution A, recommending the City Council adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act.

58:06•Joel Neel

Commissioner Neal? I'd like to make a motion to approve Resolution B, recommending initiation of proceedings to annex property.

58:33 – 58:47•Joel Neel

Aye. Commissioner Neal. I'd like to move approval of Resolution C, recommending approval of General Plan Amendment 26-01. All second. First by Neal, second by Lorenz.

59:09•Joel Neel

I'd like to move approval of resolution D recommending approval of pre-zoning zoning code text amendment 26-01. I'll second.

59:55•Joel Neel

I'll move approval of the consent calendar.
