Planning staff conducted a summary presentation of the Project with a recommendation for approval. The applicant also presented an overview of the Project and related background. In response to a concern raised by Commissioner Williams, regarding a Bocce Ball court, staff indicated that this feature is already shown on the current Site Plan for the Project. Deliberation with the Planning Commission also included discussions on the changing of the land and zoning designations of the site from multifamily to commercial, applicability of Measure E, and Project traffic effects along adjacent residential streets, Hacienda and Valerio Drives. In response, staff explained the following: (1) The change from multifamily to commercial was a policy matter and the Planning Commission's recommendation was for the Board's consideration; (2) The Project complies with all General Plan policies; and (3) Very little traffic was projected on the local residential streets. No public comments were received. With a 4-0 vote, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the Project to the Board.
