6. PUBLIC HEARING AND OTHER MATTERS <br />There were no public hearing items for consideration. <br />7. MATTERS INITIATED BY COMMISSION MEMBERS <br />Lund Ranch II Project <br />Commissioner Ritter stated that he felt bad he was not present at the last meeting, <br />knowing that only four of the Commissioners would be able to vote. He recommended <br />for future reference that bigger items be scheduled when at least five Commission <br />members can be in attendance. <br />Mr. Weinstein replied that staff will try its best to present big items to the full <br />Commission. He noted, however, that projects Planning deals with, including the Lund <br />Ranch II project, are sometimes really dynamic in terms of outstanding information and <br />research tasks that are part of those projects. He added that sometimes, there are <br />other things associated with the project, such as, in the case of the Lund Ranch project, <br />the Affordable Housing Agreement. <br />Chair Allen inquired if a meeting date has been set for the Lund Ranch II project <br />Mr. Weinstein replied that it will go to the Commission on the second Planning <br />Commission hearing in August, which would be on the 26th <br />Commissioner Ritter inquired if the meeting will go through the whole process again <br />Mr. Weinstein replied that staff would be willing to do whatever the Commission desires <br />that would help the Commissioners make a decision. He recommended, however, <br />having a very short staff presentation that essentially summarizes what happened at the <br />previous meeting, after which the Commission can discuss the relevant issues. <br />Commissioner Ritter stated that he does not want to put the public or anyone else <br />through a long presentation. <br />Chair Allen asked Commissioner Ritter if he would be comfortable with a short <br />presentation. <br />Commissioner Ritter said yes. <br />Commissioner Piper inquired if the hearing will still be open for public remarks. <br />Mr. Weinstein said yes. He indicated that it is a public hearing and that how long it will <br />take would depend on how many people show up and how much the Commission <br />wants to debate. <br />Commissioner Ritter inquired if there will be any changes to the staff recommendation <br />based on feedback from the Commission. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, July 8, 2015 Page 6 of 10 <br />
