PLANNING COMMISSION PUBLIC HEARING
1. CDP 2017-0029 (PUB17Y-0019) – PARK & TAMARACK DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS – Request for
approval of a Coastal Development Permit to construct approximately 3,068 linear feet of reinforced
concrete storm water pipe, 11 storm drain inlets and fixtures within the Mello II segment of the City’s
Coastal Zone located within the public rights-of-way on Tamarack Avenue, Park Drive and Monroe Street
within Local Facilities Management Zone 1. The project is appealable to the California Coastal
Commission per Section 30603(a)(5) of the Public Resources Code of the California Coastal Act, which
states any development which constitutes a major public works project costing $100,000 or more is
appealable to the Commission. On August 5, 2008, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2008-229
certifying an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Drainage Master Plan Update (EIR 04-02). This
project is a sub-component (BCA) of the Drainage Master Plan and was analyzed in the EIR (Table 4.1.2).
The analysis stated impacts in the Coastal Zone during construction activities would be short term and
minimized with implementation of the applicable project design features/methods and construction
measures identified in Table 3-6 of the project EIR. The project has been conditioned to implement these
mitigation measures and the project is within the scope of the prior environmental document and no
further environmental documentation is required per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162.

not within the appealable area of the California Coastal Commission. The City Planner has determined
that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not

PLANNING COMMISSION PROCEDURE
For those in the audience who are not familiar with the operation of a Planning Commission, the following is
a summary of the procedure:
For each item on the agenda, the planning staff will present a report to the Planning Commission. On items
for public hearing, the audience will be asked for comment. Those wishing to speak are asked to come
forward, speak into the microphone, and give their name and address for the taped record. A time limit of
five minutes is allotted to each speaker. After testimony is completed, the applicant is allowed a rebuttal.
The Planning Commission is anxious to hear all persons wishing to give testimony. However, it is requested
that each new speaker add new information, and not repeat points which previous speakers have made.
Persons not desiring to speak, but wishing to be recorded as proponents or protesters of record, may do so
by submitting their name and address to the minutes clerk.
Certain Planning Commission decisions are final, but may be appealed to the City Council. An appeal may be
filed with the City Clerk at City Hall within 10 calendar days of the decision. The cost of filing an appeal is
$850 for all matters. If anyone wishes to question a Planning Commission decision, they may contact the
Planning Division at 1635 Faraday Avenue, between the hours of 7:30 and 5:30, Monday through Thursday,
and 8:00 to 5:00 on Friday.
