Subject: dog park
Ken, In follow-up, and to clarify, to our conversation today. The CC introduce the MCA relating to dogs in
parks on 8/5 and had the second reading of the ordinance on 8/15. This was done without environmental
review (ie CEQA), per the direction of the City Attorney's Office. The MCA will be effective on 9/15. In
response to your question regarding the permitting process for the dog park ... Per the CC direction of
1/11/2000, and now that the MCA will soon be in place, I will begin processing the project with a
conditional use permit. Per section 21 S0.040 of the CMC, CUPS are considered by the Planning
Commission. Per the CMC, the Planning Commission renders the final decision, unless appealed to CC.
Absent any language in the CMC requiring the CUP be processed differently, or any direction to process it
otherwise, I will process the CUP as prescriberj in the CMC. Our department has a lead time of
approximately 8 weeks for scheduling and preparing items for the Planning Commission. Plan on a
meeting in November. In the next few weeks we will be conducting an analysis/environmental review of
the project, which will result in the preparation of a staff report, a Mitigated Negative Declaration (the
environmental document), and a planning staff recommendation of conditional approval. As soon as these
documents are available, they will be transmitted to your office for comment. Its my understanding the
Mark Steyaert will be the point of contact. Should you have any questions regarding this matter please
contact me.
