MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION June 27, 1984 Page 2 Commissioner Wilson stated he did not see a condition in the staff report requiring that the temporary structure be removed upon completion of the new-permanent structure. Mr. Harris stated that the applicant would have to come before the Planning Commission with the application for their new building and the temporary structure would be reviewed at that time. Commissioner Innes felt a four year period of time was a long one for a temporary conditional use permit. Mr. Harris explained that the Bank of America on West Las Positas was granted a temporary conditional use permit for five years and then was extended. This is not an unprecedented situation. The public hearing was opened. Virgil Gass, Clorox, 7200 Johnson Drive, presented their proposal. Chairman Doherty asked Mr. Gass if he had received a copy of the staff report. Mr. Gass acknowledged that he had received the report and had no comments concerning it. Commissioner Wilson stated that the landscaping appears to be minimal. Mr. Harris felt the existing landscaping for Clorox is adequate, attractive and well maintained. The temporary building would not be visible from Johnson Dr. Staff did not feel that a lot of added landscaping was necessary at this time. He also indicated that on the south PT&T blocks the view of the building from that direction. Commissioner Innes asked about the colors for the permanent structure. Mr. Gass stated they are not that far along with the site. They hope to have the building plans ready late summer or early fall. The temporary building would house the new people hired until the new building is designed and built. Scheduled completion is March 1985. Staff has been kept aprised of their intentions and goals with regard to this project. The public hearing was closed. A motion was made by Commissioner Innes, seconded by Commissioner Wilson that case Z-84-160 be approved subject to the conditions of the staff report, modifying condition number two to reflect that approval will be only for a two year period with possible extension with permission of the Planning Commission. Mr. Gass then stated that two years will not allow the completion of the design documents and construction and asked if it could be extended after the two year period. Commissioner Innes stated it is his intent to extend the approval of the temporary structure for reasonable cause. He didn't want a temporary building ending up to be a permanent one. Mr. Gass assured the Commission that they have every intention of dismantling the old building upon construction of the new one. Chairman Doherty stated that if Clorox was under construction, the Commission would grant an extension for the temporary structure at the end of the two year time period.
