An excerpt of the draft Planning Commission minutes, with the recommended mitigation measures, findings, and conditions of approval, and the Planning Commission staff report are attached for the information of the City Council. The key issue discussed by the Planning Commission was the incremental growth associated with small entitlement increases of this nature. The primary concern in this regard was the potential for such projects to adversely affect the ability of other property owners to exercise their existing entitlements while meeting the criteria of City regulations, particularly the Traffic Phasing Ordinance. In making its recommendation for approval, the Commission felt that the small scale of the project would not be a significant deterrent to the exercise of the development rights of other property owners in the airport area.
