<br />L MATTERS FOR COMMISSION'S REVIEW <br /> <br />Ill. Future P1anninl! Calendar <br /> <br />Commissioner McGuirk will not be at March 22 meeting; Commissioner Barker is still <br />undecided if she will attend the Planners Institute meeting. Mr. Swift noted that a special <br />meeting may be called for the General Plan Steering Committee's presentation of their final <br />recommendation to the Planning Commission. <br /> <br />8h.. Actions of the Citv Council <br /> <br />Mr. Swift advised the Commission that the City Council requested that the Planning <br />Commission meetings reviewing the General Plan be televised. <br /> <br />k.. Actions of the Zoninl! Admini..trator <br />There were none. <br /> <br />Bll. Interim develoument issues related to construction of sinl!le familv homes on <br />existinl! lots in the Vinevard Avenue Corridor and North Svcamore Area. <br /> <br />Mr. Swift commented that staff would like the Planning Commission to recommend approval <br />of these interim development standards to the City Council. If adopted, staff will then know <br />how to proceed when requests for major modifications for existing lots are brought forward <br />so that the modifications will include connections to City services when they become <br />available. <br /> <br />Mr. Swift noted a change to the staff report, Page 3, first paragraph, and Exhibit A, No.2, <br />where it is indicated that the Alameda County Board of Supervisors would approve a septic <br />system on lots over 40,000 square feet. The City Council would give such approval. He <br />also noted that Exhibit A, No.9 should read, "the applicant shall record a declaration of <br />restrictions reflecting this requirement." <br /> <br />Commissioner Hovingh is concerned with private wells. He inquired if the property owners <br />will be able to drill new wells and if a condition could be applied stating the wells must be <br />metered. Mr. Swift noted this issue is complicated, but he understands the property owners <br />retain their rights to the underground water. Zone 7 has raised the issue of applying <br />pumping fees for large uses. Since a permit to drill a well must be approved by Zone 7, it is <br />up to Zone 7 to apply such regulations. <br /> <br />Chairman Wright feels that Item 4 regarding the addition of a sprinkler system is cost <br />prohibitive. Mr. Beougher noted that the major cost for this system would be the stand-by <br />generator; the water tank is fairly inexpensive. Furthermore, the generator could be used for <br />other emergency purposes. <br /> <br />Planning Commission Minutes <br /> <br />Page 6 <br /> <br />February 22, 1995 <br />
