Approval of minutes for May 10, 2023
Under Government Code Section 54954.3, members of the audience may address the Commission on any item within the jurisdiction of the Commission or on any agenda item. Those wishing to speak on non-agenda items will be called upon at the beginning of the meeting. Those wishing to speak for or against an agenda item will be called upon after the presentation by the City Planning Division and the Applicant for that agenda item.
The applicant is requesting approval of a Use Permit to allow the operation of a multi-purpose banquet hall/event center in an existing vacant space. The venue will provide space for a variety of celebration events, seminars, corporate events and similar. All events will be held indoors and attendees will utilize existing parking spaces available within the project site. The project is Categorically Exempt from CEQA per Section 15332 (Infill Exemption Class 32). Project Planner: Alison Bermudez
The applicant is requesting approval of a General Plan Amendment, Rezone, Ordinance Text Amendment, Tentative Subdivision Map, Design Review Permit and Tree Permit for the proposed Sylvan Corners Subdivision. The development proposal includes the creation of 94 lots and 6 open space lots to allow for 94 for-sale single-family homes. Project amenities include a passive recreation lot, five open space lots with pedestrian pathways connecting to the adjacent Sylvan Plaza, Sylvan Middle School and the larger open space (detention basin) on the south end of the site. The homes will consist of two housing types: traditional single-family style on 70 lots and smaller alley-loaded homes on 24 lots. The project also includes a provision for 14 homes sold to income-qualified persons as required by the Surplus Lands Act (GC Sections 54220 through 54233). : An Initial Study was prepared to identify and assess the anticipated environmental impacts of the Sylvan Corners Subdivision to satisfy the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). CEQA requires that all state and local government agencies consider the environmental consequences before approving those Projects. The Initial Study determined the Project may have a significant impact on the environment, but that by incorporating specific mitigation measures the impact will be reduced to a less than significant effect and a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) was prepared.
