Sunnyoaks Avenue in an R-1 (Single- Family/Low Density Residential) Zoning District. Mr. Stafford reported that at its previous meetings of September 1 and August 4, 1981 the Planning Commission continued this application so that the applicant could submit revised plans. As of this writing, Staff has not received a revised submittal, consequently, Staff is recommending denial without prejudice so that this item may be removed from the agenda. -3- Acting Chairman Meyer opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application. Chairman Kasolas entered the Council Chambers at 7:50 p.m. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2044 Commissioner Fairbanks then moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2044 denying the application of Mr. Spivey for a variance, without prejudice, since revised plans had not been submitted, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, Kasolas, Fairbanks, Meyer NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson Vice Chairman Meyer then turned the meeting over to Chairman Kasolas. *** ZC 65-20 This is the time and place for a continued public Rolling Hills hearing to consider the City-initiated amendment Shopping Center to Ordinance No. 522 of the Campbell Municipal City-initiated Code, which adopted plans, elevations, and development schedule and conditions of approval for the shopping center located at 1225-1451 W. Hacienda Avenue (Rolling Hills Shopping Center). The proposed amendment would add a condition requiring approval of a Use Permit for any new liquor establishment at the shopping center. Mr. Stafford gave background information on this item, explaining that at the May 19, 1981 meeting the Planning Commission considered a City-initiated zone change from P-D (Planned Development/Commercial) to C-1-S (Neighborhood Commercial) for the Rolling Hills Shopping Center. At that meeting the Commission adopted a motion that no action be taken, that the P-D zoning remain in effect, and that this item be removed from the agenda. This motion was approved by a 5-2-0 vote with Commissioners Dickson and Fairbanks voting "no". At its June 22, 1981 meeting, the City Council considered a letter from Ms. PAargaret Estep regarding the Planning Commission's decision to take no action on the proposed zone change from P-D to C-1-S. After considerable discussion, the Council directed Staff to notice for public hearing the Planned Development Ordinance for the Rolling Hills Shopping Center to include the use permit requirement for liquor establishments. Therefore, at this time, the Planning Commission is considering an amendment to Ordinance 522, which adopted plans, elevations, development schedule and conditions of approval for the Rolling Hills Shopping Center. The proposed amendment would add a condition requiring approval of a Use Permit for any -4- new liquor establishment at the shopping center. The amendment to the ordinance should impose the same use permit requirements on the Rolling Hills Shopping Center which are currently required for new liquor establishments in the C-1-S, C-2-S, and C-3-S zoning districts. The proposed amendment would give the Commission more control over liquor establishments in the shopping center. However, it would not affect the two existing cocktail lounges in the center. He noted that Staff is recommending approval of an amendment to Ordinance No. 522 adding a condition requiring approval of a Use Permit for any new liquor establishment at the Rolling Hills Shopping Center. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2045 Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2045 recommending approval of an amendment to Ordinance No. 522 adding a condition requiring approval of a Use Permit for any new liquor establishment at the Rolling Hills Shopping Center, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, Meyer, Fairbanks, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson *** TA 81-1 This is the time and place fora continued public City-initiated hearing to consider the City-initiated Text Amend- ment to the Campbell Municipal Code, adding Chapter 21.59 - Garage Conversions. Mr. Stafford explained that under the existing code, an individual is permitted to convert a garage or carport into additional living space provided that the parking standards for a single-family residence are met (two parking spaces must be provided, one of which must be covered) and all building and fire codes are met. A Use Permit would not be required in this situation. In many cases the inability to provide the covered parking space which meets the 25-foot setback requirement would preclude conversion. Under the proposed ordinance, a conversion of a garage and/or carport to additional living space would require approval of a Conditional Use Permit and Architectural Approval by the Planning Commission. This procedure would give the Commission additional control over conversions and would also give property owners in the immediate area notice and an opportunity to comment on the conversion. This procedure is also intended to permit garage con- versions where they would be otherwise prohibited. More specifically, although the proposed ordinance requires two on-site parking spaces, the Planning Commission, under Section 21.50.040 of the C.M.C., has the authority -5- to adjust the parking requirements, or in this case it could waive the require- ment that the parking be covered. This might allow a garage conversion where it would otherwise not be possible. In summary, the intent of the ordinance is to examine potential conversions on an individual basis, and after input from the surrounding property owners, if the Commission finds that the conversion would not be detrimental to the neigh- borhood or the City it could be allowed. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2046 Commissioner P~1eyer moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2046 recommending that the City Council approve a City-initiated Text Amendment to the Campbell Municipal Code, adding Chapter 21.59 - Garage Conversions. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, P~leyer, Fairbanks, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson V 81-04 This is the time and place fora public hearing Payne, K. to consider the application of Mr. Kenneth Payne for a five-foot variance to the sideyard setback requirement so as to allow the retention of an existing carport structure on property known as 186 E. Rincon Avenue in a P-D (Planned Develop- ment/Medium Density Residential) Zoning District. Mr. Stafford explained that Staff is recommending approval of this application as discussed in the Staff Comment Sheet. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Fairbanks and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2047 Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2047 approving the application of Mr. Kenneth Payne fora five- foot variance to the sideyard setback requirement r so as to allow the retention of an existing carport structure on property known as 186 E. Rincon Avenue in a P-D (Planned Development/Medium Density Residential) Zoning District, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and adopted by the following roll call vote: -6- AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, P~1eyer, Fairbanks, Kasolas --- NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson *** UP 81-13 This is the time and place for a public hearing Wuv's International to consider the application of Wuv's International fora use permit to allow the construction of an addition and exterior modifications to an existing restaurant on property known as 771 W. Hamilton Avenue in a P-D (Planned Development/Commercial) Zoning District. Mr. Stafford explained that the applicant is proposing to renovate an existing Del Taco Restaurant located on property known as 771 W. Hamilton Avenue. The proposed remodeling will include the provision of a 160 square foot addition to the front of the building which will enlarge the entry to the restaurant, and a 180 square foot addition to the southern elevation to enclose the restroom entrances. The proposed changes to the existing structure will not increase the seating capacity of 60 seats as was originally approved for this restaurant. The additional greenhouse windows and change in roof canopy materials are proposed so that the restaurant image is consistent with other Wuv's Restaurants. The Architectural Advisor is of the opinion that the building renovation is acceptable. Staff is recommending approval of the proposed changes in that the proposal does not intensify the existing use and in that the elevation changes are considered acceptable by the Architectural Advisor. Commissioner Meyer reported that the Site and Architectural Review Committee met with the applicant this morning, and the Committee is recommending approval of this use permit as submitted, subject to the conditions listed in the Staff Comment Sheet. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone to speak for or against this application. Mr. Brian Woodell, representing the applicant, appeared to answer any questions the Commission might have. No one else wishing to speak, Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2048 Commissioner Kotowski then moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2048 approving the application of 41uv's International fora use permit to allow the construction of an addition and exterior modifications to an existing restaurant on property known as 771 W. Hamilton Avenue in a P-D (Planned Development/Commercial) Zoning District, seconded by Commissioner Campos and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, Meyer, Fairbanks, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson *** GP 81-06 This is the time and place fora public hearing Harrison, J. to consider the application of Mr. John Harrison for an amendment to the Land Use Element of the General Plan from "Low Density Residential" to "Low-Medium Density Residential". Mr. Stafford reported that the applicant is proposing to amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan from "Low Density Residential" (less than 6 units per gross acre) to "Low-Medium Density Residential" (6-13 units per gross acre) in order to accommodate a 9-unit condominium project which has been proposed for this site. The closest area shown for multi-family land use is the area north of Smith Avenue. The property was annexed to the City of Campbell under the MORGA annexation program of 1980. The developer had received approval from the County to build 9 units on this property; however, building permits were not obtained prior to the annexation by Campbell. On being annexed, the property owner requested the Council to recognize the County site approval and to allow development to go ahead. The City Council denied this request, indicating its policy for development in the San Tomas Area. Once the City Council denied the request, the property owner filed a court action against the annexation, and in so doing the County resumed jurisdiction over the entire annexation (Lovell 79-16) pending the outcome of the lawsuit. Subsequently, the property owner approached the Council for permission to tie into a storm sewer. This request was also denied. Staff is recommending denial of this application to amend the Land Use Element of the General Plan based on the City Council's previous action as stated herein. In addition, the Council and Commission have denied similar applications to increase residential density in this area. Also, Staff could not support a higher density on this one lot, with all adjacent lots a lower density. Due to an error in the published notice, there was no indication that a change of zoning would be considered on this agenda. If the Commission recommends approval of the requested General Plan Amendment, then Staff is recommending the zoning and development plans be heard at the meeting of October 6, 1981, in order that the published notice may be corrected. Chairman Kasolas then opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application. Mr. John Harrison, representing the applicant P~1rs. Carol Kanawyer, appeared before the Commission to once again explain the history of this application. He noted that at the time this application was being considered by the County it was referred to the City for response, and the City responded that there would not be a problem with this application as presented. Since that time -8- the owners have expended approximately $25,000 to $30,000 in fees, and the map is now ready to record. He noted that the applicant does not have approval from the City for storm sewer connections. The applicant is asking for an exception for this application, and that it revert to where it was when originally submitted to the County for approval, with the City's response that it would not present a problem. He further urged the Commission for a favorable rendering on this matter. Commissioner Kotowski inquired of the City Attorney as to the status of the area known as Lovell 79-16. City Attorney Dempster responded that the area has reverted back to the County pending the outcome of the litigation. After brief discussion, and no one else wishing to speak on this matter, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Fairbanks and unanimously adopted. Motion Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the Planning Commission recommend denial of this application based on the City Council's previous action. This motion died for lack of a second. RESOLUTION NO. 2049 Commissioner Meyer moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2049 recommending approval of the application of Harrison and Kong, Inc., for a General Plan Amendment to change the Land Use Element from Low Density Residential to Low-Medium Density Residential on property known as 956 San Tomas Aquino Road. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Campos. Discussion of Motion Commissioner Fairbanks spoke in opposition to this resolution, noting this zone change is in conflict with what public hearing and committees recommenda- tions over a long period of time have recommended for this area; i.e., a low density area. Chairman Kasolas relinquished the Chair to Vice Chairman Meyer, then stated that he is in favor of this resolution since he felt it would be the most equitable solution due to the circumstances; there has been no opposition from the neighborhood; and, each project should be judged on its own merit. Vote on Resolution AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Campos, Meyer, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: Kotowski, Fairbanks ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson *** -9- GP 81-07 This is the time and place for a public hearing Follmar, K, to consider the application of Mr. Kenneth Follmar for a General Plan Amendment to change the Land Use Element from Low Density Residential to Professional Office on property known as 2015 l~Jhiteoaks Road. Mr. Stafford reported that the applicant has requested a continuance of this application to the meeting of October 6, 1981. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Kotowski moved that GP 81-07 be continued to October 6, 1981, seconded by Commissioner Fairbanks and unanimously adopted. GP 81-08 This is the time and place for a public hearing to ZC 81-29 consider the application of Lampe Construction for Lampe Construction a General Plan Amendment from Low Density Residen- tial to Medium Density Residential, and a zone change from R-1 (Single Family Residential) to R-2-S (Multiple Family Residential) and approval of plans, elevations, and development schedule to allow the construction of 40 condominiums on property known as 440 & 456 Llewellyn Avenue in an R-1 (Single-Family Residential) Zoning District. Mr. Stafford reported that a revised Staff Comment Sheet had been placed at each Commissioner's station. He noted that Staff is recommending the following: 1. That the Planning Commission adopt a resolution recommending approval of an amendment to the Land Use Element of the General Plan from "Low Density Residential" to "Medium Density Residential" for the subject properties. 2. That the Planning Commission adopt a resolution recommending approval of a zone change from R-1 (Single-Family Residential) to R-2-S (P~ultiple Family Residential). 3. Continuance of the development plans to the Planning Commission meeting of October 6, 1981, so that revised plans may be submitted. Commissioner Meyer reported that the Site and Architectural Review Committee considered this application this morning. The Committee is concerned with the high density proposed for this project, but would recommend approval of a zone change to Medium Density Residential (R-2-S). City Attorney Dempster reminded the Commission that in January 1981 the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 1970 which recommended a zone change from Low Density Residential to Medium Density Residential. He stated that if the Commission should decide to change their position on this recommendation, findings should be made justifying the change in position. ,,, -10- Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this application. Mr. Bruce Johnson, representing the applicant, stated that he is in concurrence with Staff's recommendations of the R-2-S zoning, as well as a continuance of the development plans. He noted that the plans as presented have been prepared to be consistent with the approval that had been recommended by the Commission in January. He explained the surrounding uses in the neighborhood, noting that this property would be used as a buffer between the commercial and residential uses. He noted that at this morning's meeting concerns were expressed about placement of windows, balconies, and line of sight. He noted that these concerns will be taken into consideration when revised plans are prepared for the site. Ms. Suzanne C. Auger of 453 N. Carlyn appeared before the Commission to present a petition against this proposed subject, signed by approximately 91 residents. A copy of this petition is attached hereto and made a part of this record. She gave an overview of the neighborhood, noting it still has a rural character and the homes are still on septic tanks. She noted that it is the desire of the adjacent property owners to retain a low density zoning for this area. Mr. Johnson appeared once again to address some of the concerns expressed by Ms. Auger. Mr. Alvin Beckett, speaking on behalf of his mother Mrs. Virginia Beckett of 441 N. Carlyn Avenue, expressed concern about this entire neighborhood being zoned at a higher density. His mother is in favor of retaining a lower density for this area. Mr. Fred Morie of 440 Carlyn also spoke against the proposed project noting he is also in favor of a low density zoning for this area. Mrs. Virginia Beckett, 441 N. Carlyn, then appeared to speak against this project and the high density. She stated that her property is directly in back of the parcel proposed for development and did not wish to have windows looking down into her backyard. She also expressed concern about the increased traffic caused by the development of this parcel. Mr. Herbert Bicowski of 310 W. Hamilton Avenue spoke against the proposed zone change; he is favor of R-1 zoning for this area. Mr. Art Martinez of 317 Carlyn noted that he is against any increase in density for this area; he has been vandalized twice, and noted that any increase in density would only increase the possibility of crime and vandalism in this area. He also expressed concern about the safety on the street with additional traffic created by the development of the proposed site. No one else wishing to speak regarding this project, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Fairbanks and unanimously adopted. Commissioner Fairbanks inquired of Mr. Helms about the traffic pattern in this area, and inquired of the kind of impact a project of the proposed nature would have on this area. -11- Engineering Manager Helms responded that Latimer Avenue is a minor collector street in the city. He then explained the traffic pattern in the area. He noted that the last traffic count conducted in this area was taken in February 1980. He noted that with the development proposed there would only be a total of 150 trip ends per day. He did not feel that this amount is a significant volume increase for that street. He stated that there would be very little, if any, increased traffic volume on Carlyn Avenue; but there would be some on Latimer. Commissioner Fairbanks then inquired about the Professional Office designation which had been recommended in January of this year. Mr. Stafford responded that the applicant at that time requested "Medium Density Residential or Professional Office" in order to allow more flexibility in develop- ing the property. The current applicant has requested only consideration of the "Medium Density Residential" designation. The City Attorney then suggested that the Staff Comment Sheet of January 20, 1981 be read into the record for the benefit of the audience to have a clear understanding of what took place at that time. Recording Secretary Wade then read into the record the Staff Comment Sheet dated January 20, 1981. A copy of this report is attached hereto and made a part of this record. Since there were other persons in the audience wishing to be heard, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be reopened. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and unanimously adopted. Mr. Jim Steward of First Street expressed concern about this property being compared to the site of Wesley Manor. Mr. Morie appeared once again to state that the Best Products store is quite a distance from the site being discussed, and did not feel this had any relation to being a buffer. No one else wishing to speak, Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2050 Commissioner Meyer moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2050 recommending that the City Council approve an amendment to the Land Use Element of the General Plan from "Low Density Residential" to "Medium Density Residential" for property known as 440 and 456 Llewellyn Avenue, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, Meyer, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: Fairbanks ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson -12- RESOLUTION N0. 2053 Commissioner Meyer then moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2053 recommending that the City Council approve a zone change from R-1 (Single-Family Residential) to R-2-S (Multiple Family Residential) for property known as 440 and 456 Llewellyn Avenue, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, Meyer, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: Fairbanks ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson Commissioner Meyer then moved that the Planning Commission continue consideration of the development plans for 440 and 456 Llewellyn Avene to its meeting of October 6, 1981, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and adopted. *** The Commission took a break at 9:55 p.m.; the meeting reconvened at 10:20 p.m. *** GP 81-08 ZC 81-29 440 and 456 Llewellyn Avenue At this time Commissioner Fairbanks moved that the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council consideration of "Professional Office" Zoning as well as "Multiple Family Residential" for property known as 440 and 456 Llewellyn Avenue, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: NOES: Commissioners: ABSENT: Commissioners: This motion hereby amends Res "Professional Office" as well Llewellyn Avenue. Howard, Kotowski, Meyer, Fairbanks Campos, Kasolas Dickson olution Nos. 2050 and 2053 to include the recommendation of as "Multiple Family Residential" for 440 and 456 *** GP 81-09 This is the time and place for a City-initiated City-initiated public hearing to consider the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Mr. Stafford reported that the property identified as APN 424-43-1 through 424-43-63 (Tract 6571) is presently unincorporated. The parcel is indicated on Campbell's current Land Use Element of the General Plan for both "Professional Office" and "Low Density Residential" uses. At the present time a 63-unit condo- minium development exists on the 3.4 gross acre site, resulting in a density of approximately 18 units per gross acre. At this time Staff is recommending an amendment to "Medium Density Residential" for this property in order to keep the General Plan and density development in conformance with one another. -13- Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this item. No one wishing to speak, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Fairbanks and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION NO. 2051 Commissioner Kotowski moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2051 recommending a "D1edium Density Residential" land use for pro- perty known as APN 424-43-1 through APN 424-43-63 (Tract 6571), seconded by Commissioner Meyer and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, Meyer, Fairbanks, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson ZC 81-28 This is the time and place for a public hearing City-initiated to consider a City-initiated prezoning of un- incorporated properties within Campbell's Urban Service Area between Highway 17 and Bascom Avenue and south to Wanda Lane. Mr. Stafford reported that the area under consideration (as displayed on an exhibit to the Commission) is the only remaining area of unincorporated land within Campbell's Urban Service Area which has not been prezoned. Prezoning is the formal notification to property owners of the zoning that would be placed on their property if it were to be annexed to the City. He further noted that the City does not have any plans at present to initiate annexation proceedings for this area. However, individual property owners, especially along Bascom Avenue, have initiated annexations. In each case, the City must then prezone these parcels before the annexation will be considered by the Local Agency Formation Commission. The prezoning process adds approximately 90-120 days to the annexation process. It is the Staff's opinion that by prezoning the entire unincorporated area at this time, a substantial amount of time could be saved for any subsequent annexations. Chairman Kasolas opened the public hearing and invited anyone in the audience to speak for or against this prezoning. Janet Repozzi inquired as to when the last speed survey was performed in this area. Engineering Manager Helms responded that the City recently conducted a survey near Redding and Shelley, however he did not have any information~as to what the County has surveyed. Ruth Irvine of 178 Kilmer spoke against high density in this area. n -14- No one else wishing to speak, Commissioner Meyer moved that the public hearing be closed, seconded by Commissioner Fairbanks and unanimously adopted. RESOLUTION N0. 2052 Commissioner Kotowski moved that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. 2052 recommending approval of prezoning properties as noted on Exhibit A attached to this resolution, seconded by Commissioner Campos and unanimously adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Commissioners: Howard, Kotowski, Campos, Meyer, Fairbanks, Kasolas NOES: Commissioners: None ABSENT: Commissioners: Dickson *** MISCELLANEOUS Minor Modification Request of Dr. Martin Krinsky for a minor modifica- Krinsky, M. tion to sideyard setback from 9 feet to 5 feet to allow the construction of a second story addition at property known as 610 Craig Avenue in a R-1 (Single-Family Residential) Zoning District. Commissioner Campos moved that the Planning Commission approve the requested sideyard setback as described in the Staff Comment Sheet, seconded by Commissioner Kotowski and unanimously adopted. *** Staff Report Tanning Studios It was the consensus of the Commission that this report be acknowledged and filed. *** Staff Report Request of Mr. Scott Lefaver, AICP, for Planning Commission approval to conduct environmental assessments for the City of Campbell. Mr. Stafford stated that Staff is recommending approval of this request. Mr. Scott Lefaver appeared before the Commission to respond to any questions the Commission might have. Commissioner Kotowski moved that this request be approved, seconded by Commissioner Meyer and unanimously adopted. *** -15- Staff Report Staff Report regarding weed abatement problem at 1660 S. blinchester Boulevard. It was the consensus of the Commission that this report be acknowledged and filed. *** ITEMS BROUGHT UP BY COMP1ISSIONERS Commissioner Fairbanks inquired as to how long construction can go on when building a single-family residence. There is a residence being constructed on Bedal Lane which has been in the construction stage for some time. Mr. Stafford replied that there is no absolute time limit which a building must be completed. Commissioner Fairbanks then inquired about the old two-story home located at 1110 Hacienda Avenue; she asked if the setbacks are in order. Mr. Stafford reported that there is an existing porch which must be removed prior to occupancy of the last unit constructed. An,l(111RNMFNT It was moved by Commissioner Kotowski, and seconded by Commissioner Campos, that the Planning Commission meeting be adjourned. The meeting adjourned at 11:13 p.m. APPROVED: George C.
