alameda.legistar.com City of Alameda - Meeting of Planning Board on 7/24/2023 at 7:00 PM

Planning staff is summarizing the changes that staff made in response to planning board direction

Board asked clarifying questions, and now Christopher Buckley with a public comment with slideshow

He was the only speaker. Now Board discussion

Board member Teague has lots of notes - he missed the prior discussion so he has more notes than he may have otherwise had.

Pres. Ruiz has notes too - some about the phrasing, some of the more practical things going to what the intention of the standards are.

No other board members have comments. Board member Teague moves that the Board recommend approval with the modifications requested by Mr. Teague and Ms. Ruiz.

After some more discussion, this passes. Now staff presents a conformance rezoning (Item 5B) for a property on Lincoln.

Appears to be some technical difficulties with applicant presentation

Reminder that if you want to make a public comment or presentation on zoom in Alameda you need to update your zoom client regularly.

Boardmember Curtis suggests that he is interested to move forward without the presentation. President Ruiz is going to move forward to public comments - there are none. Board comments next

Motion passed unanimously without the presentation.
