“City Council Chambers, Now, in terms of the parking management plan, and I know at least to the Commissioners here raised it the guests proposed guest parking I, how do you I know you. City Council Chambers, said that the ho a fees will probably be used to enforce that parking but what other mechanisms, do you think that you could use in terms of guests. Just to know who is an overnight guest, for example.”

“I only have a question regarding the three very low units, which are at 30% to 50% AMI. Is that the minimum that needs to be provided under the state density and the other statutory provisions.”

“It's 5%. Okay. It just seems to me it's a lot lower or a lot more on this project. Not that we're supposed to compare projects, but that was my main question.”

“City Council Chambers, So tonight we there were two things that kind of popped up that I, I want to. City Council Chambers, follow up with staff or ask questions of staff, the first one was the Community benefit payment, and I know. City Council Chambers, That we have the ability to suggest to the City Council or recommend when and how what's the time and place for that, because I really do think there should be some standards. involved in how that money is used, but I'm not familiar with when is the right time and place for that.”

“Thank you. The second question I had was regarding the public open space and City Council Chambers, The perspective possibility, I know we raised it tonight earlier earlier tonight sorry about maybe having some standards for those so that the public does know that it's public space um that's something that I do encourage staff to consider. City Council Chambers, Adopting at some point, because you know that does when if a tree falls in the forest, no one hears that right it's one of those scenarios if nobody knows it's public space, then. City Council Chambers, it's not an effective use of…”

“Thank you, Chair. I have a question regarding the residential industrial interface and the businesses that exist now should the zoning code be adopted as drafted and non-conforming use. So I'm going to walk through it. So if the zoning code gets adopted, some of the businesses there will not be non-conforming, will be non-conforming uses or will their use remain compliant with industrial as it's being zoned? Is that clear?”

“»» And can you walk me through, so they get grandfathered in, correct?”
Planning Commission · Aug 24, 2026

“»» They're nonconforming. »» Yes. »» The existing use is grandfathered until it becomes what? So when does it fall out of their protected non-conforming use status?”
Planning Commission · Aug 24, 2026

“So in that area, if there's a change of ownership of the building, it retains its non-conforming use status? Is that right?”

“Yeah, I think that's the question I had. Okay, thank you.”

“I think those are all my only questions for now. I may wanna ask additional points based on what comes out.”

“Thank you, Chairwoman. Thank you so much for that presentation. I have a question about the residential industrial interface, mainly because I don't understand necessarily how it works. So I've been reading through the draft here, looking at comments, looking at the zoning map. But is it an overlay? Or is it a buffer? How does that function between the light industrial and where you're establishing these residential industrial interfaces? What is that exactly?”
Planning Commission · Aug 11, 2026

“So in that residential industrial interface, there are additional standards being put on that area, correct? So, and from what I understand, once the zoning code gets adopted, the existing uses would become non-conforming or no?”

- Play at 1:01:30
“Nonconforming, okay. I'm still thinking through this. I may have more questions, but I'm going to revert it back to the chair.”

“Thank you, Chair Ramos. Throughout this, first I want to thank members of the public who came in and voiced their concerns. It helped me understand all the issues. I'm fairly new to this commission, so that was very insightful. One of the things that was acknowledged and I think is going to be addressed is the vagueness around the enclosures. I think a lot of the comments from the industrial businesses and properties really didn't understand it or maybe they do now after this whole conversation. And the other thing I wanted to address or comment on is the fact that this zoning code really…”

“Just piggybacking on that comment, I know that there was a person on the phone that talked about cabinet sinks and not pie in the sky kind of thinking, but should the school district come to the table A lot of those could become cabinet sinks in the form of parks. So I think that that's one of the ways that we could address all these environmental justice issues at some point, pie in the sky kind of thing, but the school district has to come clean, I guess.”
