Project Description
Lot Line Adjustment 14-001 was approved by the Planning Commission on October
21, 2014 (Attachment 1 ). This lot line adjustment consolidates four (4) existing
Village Mixed Use lots located at 318 Short Street into two (2) lots. It was due to
expire on October 21,2016.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
Extensions of Time
Municipal Code Subsection 16.12.140.C allows the approving authority to grant a
project up to three (3) one-year time extensions, only if it is found that there have
been no significant changes in the General Plan, Municipal Code or character of the
area within which the project is located that would cause the approved project to be
injurious to the public health, safety or welfare. No such changes have been
identified in regard to Lot Line Adjustment 16-001. If the requested time extension is
approved, the project will be eligible for two (2) additional one-year time extensions. It
should be noted that the applicant has been working toward finalization of the Lot
Line Adjustment, including making necessary site and public improvements required
prior to recordation of the Lot Line Adjustment.
ALTERNATIVES:
The following alternatives are provided for the Planning Commission's consideration:
• Adopt the attached Resolution approving Time Extension 16-001;
• Modify and adopt the attached Resolution approving Time Extension 16-001;
• Do not adopt the attached Resolution, provide specific findings and direct staff
to return with a Resolution denying the project; or
ADVANTAGES:
Granting the requested extension will allow the applicant to continue working toward
recording Lot Line Adjustment 14-001.
DISADVANTAGES:
None identified.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff has reviewed the proposed project in accordance with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines and determined the granting of a time
extension is not subject to CEQA per Section 15061 (b)(3) of the Guidelines, which
states that where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the
activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment that the activity
is not subject to CEQA.
PUBLIC NOTICE AND COMMENT:
Per Municipal Code Table 16.12.030-B, a public hearing is not required for approval
of a time extension.
