~_. MINUILS ~'LANNIN~' COi'~IISSION 10/26/83 Page 20 Ben Tarver asked the Chairman if he could say a couple of more things. Chairman Jamieson granted this request. Mr. Tarver stated that the consultant indicated that it was not unusual to reduce the review period from 45 to 30 days. Mr. Tarver said this is not true according to Price Walker. Chairman Jamieson then suggested Mr. Tarver get together with the speaker to resolve the issue. Mr. Tarver then spoke to sewer capacity stating that if the general plan is amended, the projects will not be inconsistent with the general plan. Joe Callahan stated that they have responded to all responses of the EIR to October 14, 1983 which is one day short of 45 days despite the fact that the Clearinghouse did agree that a 30 day review period was allowed. Further he said a supplemental EIR is frequently granted a 30 day review period as opposed to 45 days. The public hearing was closed. Discussion by the Planning Commission Commissioner Doherty said it is important that it be pointed out that the Commission has had available to it, as pointed out by someone else earliler, for study the original EIR, including comments and response thereto, and the new EIR along with comments and response to that. They have had the time to study all of the CC&R's, the Design Guidelines, the entire development plan, etc. The Planning Commission has used diligence in reviewing this project from top to bottom and has used diligence in considering the Growth Management Element of the General Plan. All alternatives have been reviewed by the Planning Commission as it relates to the general plan amendment alternatives and as it relates to Volume II of the EIR. The Planning Commmission has looked at the alternatives of the proposed Ordinance 1040, PUD-81-30, as outlined in Volume II of the EIR. In his opinion, the alternatives proposed are not feasible by virtue of the fact that the developers can proceed under the existing zoning. This would give less control to the City than would an approved PUD. Commissioner Wilson said he has reviewed everything. The major issue he was concerned with dealt with the level of service of traffic. He is pleased that the developers and staff have agreed to the incorporation of the general plan review committee's recommendation. It resolves concerns he has had in the past. Commissioner Wilson also indicated that all concerns brought up by speakers in opposition have been eliminated by the 110 conditions imposed on the project. He has read the EIRs and is in agreement with Commissioner Doherty. -20- __ _ . _ . _ T..
