Principal Planner Robertson presented the one-year time extension request as outlined in the staff report.
The Commission requested clarification on:
-Have construction plans been submitted for site improvements?
-Will the plans change for the new development?
MICHAEL BRAUN, applicant, indicated that the negotiations they were working on with a potential tenant fell apart. He noted that the vacancies are filling up in the adjacent properties and they are hopeful on securing 50% tenant occupancies but cannot guarantee it.
Commissioner Weremiuk recalled that this site does not have the road traffic from Ramon Road and Gene Autry; and there are still major vacancies in both major shopping centers. She stated that this has gone on too long without any significant activity and is not certain this area will be built as a commercial big-box retail site in the near future.
Mr. Braun indicated that the foot traffic will be brought by Wal-Mart and indicated by not extending their entitlements this would set them back significantly.
Commissioner Middleton said she is inclined to allow one more year on this project because it is in a commercial district and this is the best use for this particular property.
Commissioner Donenfeld supports the motion and agrees that the Commission needs to be more rigorous when reviewing the time extensions; however, Commissioner Middleton made a good point that this is a commercial area and the Springs shopping center is now just beginning to fill the vacancies.
Commissioner Calerdine said he will support the motion but does not share the same concern and does not see much risk to the city. He is more concerned that there is no development in the entire surrounding area and suggested the zoning and general plan may not be appropriate for this area.
Commissioner Weremiuk agreed this site could be zoned inappropriately and will not support the motion. She does not believe there is a demand for retail in this area.
Motion to approve Approve one-year time extension with the provision that without any substantial forward movement (plans submitted to the City) it will not be approved next year. Moved by Commissioner Roberts, seconded by Commissioner Donenfeld.
