Millers to resolve the Millers' concerns. However, achieving resolution has been difficult because the Masons' existing Conditional Use Permit does not contain specific provisions regarding allowed uses, frequency of uses, and the use of the outdoor area to the north of the Masonic Lodge building. The Millers believe that the Masonic Lodge's operations violate the original Conditional Use Permit approval, and have requested that the original permit be brought back to the Planning Commission for reconsideration. The Planning Commission made a similar request, and indicated a desire to review a staff recommendation for next steps. Possible End to Masonic Lodge Conditional Use Permit Staff notes the Masonic Lodge is currently in the process of selling the property. On June 16, a lodge representative indicated the property is in escrow. In February 2016, Chabad of the Tri- Valley filed an application for Conditional Use Permit approval to operate a religious institution with a childcare facility at the Masonic Lodge site. This application is being processed, and will be presented to the Planning Commission when it is deemed complete. If approved, Chabad's Conditional Use Permit would supersede the approval of UP- 77 -13.
