Planning Commission DAFT/UNAPPROVED Fluary 24, 2000 <br /> Minute No. 2000-04 (Excerpt) Page 16 of 16 <br /> Associate City Planner Weisbrod responded that the paint and body shop had relocated <br /> two or three years ago to a site on Teagarden. He said it had become common practice <br /> for dealers to separate the auto body and fender work from the rest of the dealership. He <br /> said to his best knowledge there was no intent to bring the paint and body shop it back to <br /> the new site. He said the paint and body shop was currently appropriately located in a <br /> general industrial district. He said that the work at the Chovanes Ford site would be <br /> limited to auto detailing, washing and waxing. <br /> Motion that the Redevelopment Agency adopt the mitigated <br /> negative declaration and approve the Owner Participation <br /> Agreement pertaining to the Ford Motor Company Retail <br /> Facility, with the inclusion of the attached recommended <br /> conditions, an additional condition approved by separate motion <br /> concerning street improvements to Marina Boulevard and an <br /> additional design condition requiring that the entrance "kiosk" <br /> be raised in height and that a color be added to the horizontal <br /> reveal line of the proposed new showroom facility. <br /> (Collier/Ravenstad; 7 Ayes, 0 Noes) <br /> Commissioner Reed noted for the record that tonight's discussion was yet another <br /> example of his and other commissioners' discomfort with the traffic information and the <br /> traffic recommendations they were receiving. He asked that the City Council be made <br /> aware of their concern. He said he believed the Planning Commission deserved better <br /> support and better information on which to make a decision. <br /> Chair Chin stated that she agreed with Commissioner Reed's comment. <br /> Commissioner Collier suggested that perhaps projects should not be considered unless <br /> the traffic administrator was present. <br /> Secretary Hom said the traffic administrator did not intend to attend this meeting, but <br /> understood that he had a conflict with another meeting. <br /> (Brief recess) <br /> G:\MINUTES.PC/2000/2-24-2000 <br /> 2/29/2000 <br /> 41 12 <br />
