SUBJECT: Planning Commission Agenda for January 21, 2010
Report of the actions of the Planning Commission Meeting:
Item No. 1 Minutes dated December 3, 2009
Summary: Approved as amended. (All Ayes)
Item No. 2 Ong Parking Waiver (PA2009 -059)
333 Oki Newport Boulevard
Summary: A use permit application to waive the additional off - street parking required for the
conversion of 2,600 to 3,061 square -feet of retail to medical office in an existing
multi- tenant building.
This item was a scaled -down version of the project presented to the Planning
Commission on December 3, 2009. The applicant proposed reducing the size of
the medical office from 3,061 to 2,600 square feet, which requires a parking
waiver of 2 rather than 3 spaces. In exchange, the applicant sought to retain the
rights to operate a small restaurant within the building.
The Planning Commission denied the new proposal on a 6 to 1 vote. The
Planning Commission then voted to approve the previous version of the project
with the condition that the applicant relinquishes all rights to the Use Permit for
the restaurant.
This item was approved. (5 Ayes, 2 No)
