This action will initiate the rezoning, and the following resolution will provide for preparation of an Environmental Impact Report on the rezoning, to supplement the General Plan EIR, and will address the additional issues that area appropriate at this level . This EIR will not address project issues; these would be addressed at the time a project is submitted. The City Council asked Mr. Vitz to review the Special Review Overlay District, and to describe the public review process for the rezoning, the EIR and any possible development. He explained that the Special Review Overlay District is a proposal in the new Zoning Code which creates an area for which City Council review is required for development. He further described the public review process. Barbara Shockley, 1890 Bockman Road, San Lorenzo, referred to the Preliminary Memorandum of Understanding with SCS Company, and to comments by Council Member Santos quoted in the Daily Review. She proposed that the City Council consider a user tax on the Marina area to pay for the acquisition of the dredge disposal site, to allow the City Council to make decisions related to the future use of the Citation property without undue influence. She said CALM supports designation of the property as Open Space and opposes residential development. Mayor Karp explained that all alternatives would be considered as part of the regular Environmental Impact process. Council Member Glaze discussed the wording of the Preliminary MOU with SCS. Mayor Karp further described the public hearing process. • Evelyn Plate, 1341 Belding Street, read a letter regarding Robert's Landing related to Government Code regulations related to fair share housing and said she felt Citation's potential development did not meet fair share housing requirements related to pricing, availability of suitable sites, and congestion. She also discussed requirements related to the preservation of California wetlands. She said no houses should be built on the Roberts Landing site and the area should be left as Open Space. She also read a petition opposing the construction of houses on the Roberts Landing site. Council Member Perry suggested that the names of those in the audience interested in this matter be taken so they could be contacted when the public hearing was held before the Planning Commission. The City Council concurred.
