“So with SB 9, if it's within a half mile of a high transit area, there's no additional parking required, right? The law says, yeah, I believe. Can you double check that?”

“So with that in mind, if you're on El Camino and someone wants to do this and they want to build a dual unit and put additional units there, they don't have to have additional parking. So if the street's already busy and it's a residential neighborhood and you put three or four additional housing units there and people have cars, there's no additional room. What is the city looking to do to prevent this? I know you can't stop the development, but what is the city looking to do to address the potential parking impact on the residents? Is there a plan in place? Are you looking into... parking…”

“which it does already right now in the parking. So even if we come up with a plan to address the parking, it's already overridden right now. So I'm not understanding why are we trying to change our municipal code at this moment when it's already overridden?”

“design standards that would require those to have parking stalls in them so if they were two-story and the parking was underneath and this would kind of circumvent that problem right is there does the city have the latitude to do that i'm guessing no i'm just asking to to kind of have a design standard where if you're within a half mile of a high transit area then it should be a second story unit and that way the parking is underneath”

“I just had a question. So if this has happened in the past before where the process got out of sequence, how does the city resolve that? What's the process to do that?”

“I just have two questions. I was looking at the page 44 on the conceptual site plan. Maybe I missed it, but the trash receptacles are all the way in the back far left corner. Does that mean that people have to take, they have to walk their trash all the way down to that corner? on my misunderstanding that. Okay, let me just look at that. My second question was, on the front of the property on Kiefer, there's at-grade stormwater planters in the front. Is that strategically placed there off Kiefer for flooding, or why would those be there? And I noticed that I don't see those anywhere else on…”

“Sorry. I know it's late, everybody. I wanted to put a request in for the Planning Commission to consider requesting a staff study or study session to determine whether the residential parking spillover is occurring into commercial properties, with the city to check into that with the existing ordinances that we have, the enforcement framework, whether or not that's adequate, and what reasonable steps the city could take to support any businesses being affected by this. So this is coming from some of the feedback that we've all seen. I've heard it. that in some situations with the high density…”

And I don't see those anywhere else on the property, or if maybe the green um area in the middle is meant to do the same thing i was just kind of trying to understand that logistically why is that place there for a certain reason but yeah basically just around the trash receptacles just wondering does that mean people have to take their walk everything way down there is that just for the…”

“So, um, I do I do a lot of yard work at my house. So a lot of empathy for when you're trying to do your yard and you want to have it easy to clean up and you know, you don't want to have leaves everywhere and stuff. I totally get that and understand with regards to pine needles because they are very acidic. So As a homeowner, some of us pay quite a bit in property tax. And I believe that we should be allowed to, if the situation arises and it's appropriate, to make adjustments to our property. The ironic thing is if the applicant, I think it was brought up by another commissioner, that if the…”
