2004-06-04 Planning Commission Minutes

the Council’s policy has been to include a fair share contribution. Mr. Yuen explained that past practice was the Commission would include a sentence in the ordinance saying an applicant would pay their fair share contribution, and the Council would insert the fair share figures at the Council level; however, in his discussion with the Council, the Department will now be inserting the figures on the Commission level. Mr. Hayashi noted that as the fair share contribution figures has just been changed, the Department will make the necessary adjustments before transmitting the ordinance over to the County Council. Commission Springer said she prefers receiving as much information at the Commission level as it gives the public greater scrutiny of the information that the Council eventually works with. There was no one from the public wishing to testify on this agenda item. It was moved by Commissioner Springer and seconded by Commissioner Alameda to send a favorable recommendation to the County Council based on and incorporating the Planning Director’s background information and recommendation, with a new Condition G as follows and the remaining conditions realphabetized accordingly, “Restrictive covenants in the deed shall require the homeowners to maintain the private roads and draingeway.” A roll call vote was taken and motion carried with six ayes (Springer, Alameda, Graham, McCall, Thibadeau and Fujikawa) and two absent and excused (Smith and Galdones).
