are the legal rules. He added that had Lund Ranch II had an approved PUD with a filed Vesting Tentative Tract Map, then the City would really be in a bind. Commissioner Narum commented that the Commission would not be having this discussion then. Chair Blank agreed; however, since Lund Ranch II does not have a Vesting Tentative Map, one option is to do what Oak Grove did of having only ten units, and nobody would object to it. He indicated that he thinks it would be very difficult to oppose ten units being built in Lund Ranch II; yet it would add traffic to that one connector street, and he understands that. He added that the assumption is that the entirety of the Lund Ranch project would be dumped into those streets, and that is not necessarily the only option. He noted that he is not saying it is right or that it is easy. He reiterated that he does not know how to reconcile what this says with all the other things. Commissioner Pearce stated that this is difficult because there are so many challenges. She noted that when the Commission ends up having to deal with neighborhood disputes, and this is a neighborhood dispute on a much more global scale, the Commission wants to make everybody happy and make this right for everybody, but it cannot do that. Commissioner Pearce stated that her original thought was to go to the intent, which was everyone's original thought. She noted, however, half the people instrumental in Measure PP is saying a road is a structure, and the other half is saying it is not; half the people in the room who voted for Measure PP is saying it is a structure, and half of the people who also voted for it is saying it is not; saying that was not my intent, and saying that was my intent. She indicated that she cannot go by intent anymore, and she did not know how to do that; so she had to look at the text and at the Municipal Code. She noted that that is what she has, and it seems to her that, after having read everything, the definition of structure in the Municipal Code would have said it excludes roads like it excludes access drives and walks; it would have been excluded from the definition of a structure. She stated that she would be happy to have that conversation in the future about altering the definition of a structure in the Municipal Code, but that would be a different conversation. Commissioner Pearce stated that she is really sorry and that she thinks it is unfortunate about the promises made and that there are unforeseen consequences, but there are consequences. She indicated that she cannot jerry-rig this to get around the consequences and that she is sorry that she cannot do it. She noted that Commissioner Olson was correct that this is a traffic conversation more than anything else; this is a Lund Ranch traffic conversation; this is a golf course traffic conversation. Commissioner Pearce stated that she would like to address the traffic issues. She noted that she keeps hearing from people in Junipero Street and Independence Drive about the traffic, and she would rather have that conversation in the future. She indicated that she has been reading this over and over, and she cannot get to the point PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, March 13, 2013 Page 29 of 35
