HAYASHI:Commissioner Galdones? <br />GALDONES:No. <br />HAYASHI:Chair Alameda? <br />ALAMEDA:No. <br />HAYASHI:Mr. Chair, motion does not carry. The vote was three ayes and three noes. <br />ALAMEDA:Okay. Care to entertain a motion for A-2? Commissioner Graham? <br />GRAHAM:Consistently with what I€ve said before, I would move that we include A-2 <br />inourrecommendationasproposedbythePlanningDirector.Andthepartthatwasalittle <br />th <br />contentious to me was including extra space along 35 <br /> Avenue. But as I believe the Planning <br />Director€s recommendation that any zoning level changes would require that the Applicant <br />th <br />improve 35 Avenue is sufficient to support the rezoning, I€m willing to go along with the <br />Planning Director€s recommendation. So I move that A-2 be putforth with a positive <br />recommendation to the County Council. <br />WATANABE: Second. <br />ALAMEDA:Motion made by Commissioner Graham, seconded by Commissioner <br />Watanabe. Discussion? Commissioner Iwashita? <br />th <br />IWASHITA: Just, I think Orchidland Community Association€s concern about 35 <br />th <br />Avenue and allowing commercial development at 35 and Orchidland Drive is not limited to, <br />th <br />you know, the condition of 35 Avenue at that intersection. And I guess their concern would <br />extend beyond, you know, far beyond the boundaries of what€s being proposed and to how, you <br />th <br />know, people would then within the subdivision be using 35 Avenue more to access those <br />particular areas. And I don€t think that what€s being contemplated, in terms of requiring <br />th <br />improvements for 35 Avenue, would extend beyond the boundaries of the proposed <br />developments. So I think Orchidland Community Association€s concern is warranted. And <br />basically they have a current infrastructure concern as to the condition of the roads and the <br />organization€s potential liability with increased use, so I can€t support the proposed expansion. <br />ALAMEDA:Thank you for your opinion. Other discussion items or perspectives? <br />Seeing none, staff? <br />HAYASHI:Thank you, Mr. Chair. The motion is to support the Planning Director€s <br />recommendation on map change A-2. Commissioner Graham? <br />GRAHAM:Aye. <br />HAYASHI:Commissioner Watanabe? <br />WATANABE: Aye. <br />20 <br /> <br />
