CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 3 of 10 SEPTEMBER 20, 2022
the editorial as an informational and educational piece for the community but the title of the article has caused confusion, leading readers to believe it was City-sponsored.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Rick Wilkerson, La Quinta – spoke about a notice he received from Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) to cease watering the grass at the Point Happy Shopping Center or be fined $500/day; he explained that the grass was a requirement when the Center was initially developed, and requested assistance from the City in resolving this with CVWD because the $3 per square foot reimbursement compensation offered by CVWD to remove the grass is far short of the actual cost of doing so.
Council directed staff to put the issue of turf removal on a future agenda to discuss a possible City assistance program or means to designate the grass areas as recreational, and to invite CVWD to that meeting to participate in resolving the matter.

PUBLIC SPEAKER: Don Shoffstall, La Quinta – stated that Measure A is not about money, it’s about quality-of-life; residents are still suffering, but don’t make complaint calls because they have faith that Measure A will soon pass; La Quinta will continue to be a tourist destination if Measure A passes if the City works to encourage development of STVRs in the exempt areas; displacement of young family renters and upward pressure on rent; enforcement does not work under the program; and if Measure A passes, illegal operators will be reported to City enforcement.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: James Lambert, La Quinta – provided information on STVRs in exempt areas; proper zoning prohibits STVRs in residential zones; affordability and availability of homes and rentals if Measure A passes; STVRs in Homeowners’ Associations; and if Measure A passes, the City will still be responsible to enforce its zoning laws and can cover that cost with revenues from legal STVRs.
PUBLIC SPEAKER: Kay Wolff, La Quinta – spoke about the growth of STVRs since 2012, and the delay in getting it under control; stated the current ordinance is almost perfect with the exception that Council cannot legally make the ban on new STVRs permanent; foresees that future Councils will be pressured to lift the ban; and noted that no city that has banned STVRs has gone bankrupt, nor cut police or fire services.
NOTE: Councilmembers engaged public speakers in discussion regarding their remarks during each speakers’ time at the podium.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: October 4, 2022
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE APPLICATION FOR,
AND RECEIPT OF, CALRECYCLE GRANTS PROGRAM FUNDS
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing application for, and receipt of, CalRecycle Grants Program Funds for assistance in the safe and effective management of the waste stream in the City of La Quinta.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• Pursuant to the Public Resources Code sections 48000 et seq., and 14581, the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) established various payment programs to make payments to qualifying jurisdictions in furtherance of this authority.
• $330 million has been allocated for fiscal year 2022/23 toward the Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction (BCR) program in both a competitive and non-competitive manner for all counties and cities in the State of California.
• La Quinta intends to apply and receive miscellaneous amounts of competitive grants and utilize funds for the safe and effective management of the waste stream in the City from the BCR program. • In order to receive CalRecycle Grants Program funding, the Council must adopt a resolution authorizing application to the Planning Grants Program.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adoption of a resolution to apply for CalRecycle Grants does not have a direct fiscal impact, but if adopted, is instrumental in securing grant funds to subsidize current and future solid waste service and program needs.
CalRecycle Grant funds received would be placed in Fund 221 and a new account would be established for the grant.
CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 4

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
CalRecycle offers funding opportunities to assist public and private entities in the safe and effective management of the waste stream. Public Resources Code sections 48000 et seq. authorizes CalRecycle to administer various grant programs in furtherance of the State’s efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle solid waste generated in the State, thereby preserving landfill capacity, and protecting public health and safety and the environment. These grant funding opportunities have directly supported the City's efforts in meeting many of the State’s waste diversion requirements.
Recent State legislation has established strict diversion goals, which must be met by municipalities over the next several years. Following the precedents set by Assembly Bill 341 Mandatory Recycling (AB 341) and Assembly Bill 1826 Mandatory Commercial Organics (AB 1826), CalRecycle recently passed and formalized rules and regulations for Senate Bill 1383 as part of the State's Short-Lived Climate Pollutant Reduction Strategy, which mandates cities to implement mandatory programming, education, monitoring, reporting, and enforcement actions for all waste streams.
CalRecycle grant application procedures require an applicant’s governing body to declare by resolution certain authorizations related to the administration of the CalRecycle grants. CalRecycle recommends that government bodies approve a general resolution authorizing the application of all CalRecycle grants in order to streamline and guarantee a city’s ability to apply for all grants for which they are eligible in a timely manner.
This Resolution will authorize the City to apply and accept, if awarded, CalRecycle Grant funding for up to five years from the date of adoption, per CalRecycle's maximum length of time allowed.
ALTERNATIVES
Council may elect to not support Staff’s recommendation to apply for this funding.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING: October 4, 2022
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE FIRST AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
FOR THE CITY MANAGER
RECOMMENDATION
Approve First Amendment to Employment Agreement for the City Manager.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• At its June 21, 2022 Regular Meeting, the Council approved City Manager Jon McMillen’s current employment agreement, effective July 1, 2022. • The current agreement memorialized Council’s decision to extend the employment term for three years but kept in place, subject to future revision, compensation provisions that were from the original employment agreement, originally effective July 1, 2019. • The proposed First Amendment to Employment Agreement (Agreement) (Attachment 1) would modify the compensation provisions based on the Council’s favorable annual performance evaluation and comparable salaries and benefits of other city managers in the Coachella Valley.
FISCAL IMPACT
If the amendment is adopted, base salary for the current fiscal year would be $250,000, and the City Manager would be deemed at Step 10 for purposes of classification under the currently operative 2022/23 Salary Schedule for full time management employees. In the following fiscal years, base salary would be tied to step level for the city manager position pursuant to the 2022/23 Salary Schedule. Also, if the amendment is adopted, compensation would include $30,000 in annual deferred compensation, subject to being paid to a qualified retirement or supplemental retirement plan. The City Manager will continue to receive the same fringe benefits as authorized for all City management employees.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
In February 2019, the City hired an independent consulting firm with expertise in city management recruitment to assist the Council in the process of hiring a new city manager. After a national recruitment that attracted 72 applicants from around the country, the list of finalists was narrowed to six semi-finalists CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 6

and two finalists after discussions in closed session with Council, a series of interviews with candidates, and a thorough review of references, among other recruiting actions. At its May 21, 2019 Regular Meeting, the Council unanimously voted (5-0 in favor) to appoint Mr. McMillen as City Manager, effective July 1, 2019, and to approve terms and condition of a three-year employment agreement. At its June 21, 2022 Regular Meeting, the Council approved a new employment agreement, effective July 1, 2022, for an additional three-year term but kept in place, subject to future revision, compensation provisions that were from the original employment agreement.
The proposed Amendment modifies the current agreement’s base salary and deferred compensation provisions as outlined in the Fiscal Impact above. The modified compensation package brings the City Manager’s base salary and deferred compensation more in line with the 2022/23 Salary Schedule for the City’s full time management employees (Attachment 2) and comparable salaries and benefits of other city managers in the Coachella Valley.
Except for the compensation provisions, no other modifications to the current employment agreement are proposed.

This FIRST AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Amendment”) is made and entered as of October 4, 2022 (the “Amendment Effective Date”), by and between the City of La Quinta, a public body (the “City” or “Employer”), and Jon McMillen, an individual (the “Employee”), both of whom understand as follows:
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the City desires to continue to employ the services of Employee as the City Manager as provided by the La Quinta Municipal Code; and WHEREAS, the City and Employee entered into that certain EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT made and entered July 1, 2022 (“Original Agreement”), which is the operative agreement for the city manager’s employment with the City; and WHEREAS, it is the desire of the City to amend certain conditions of employment of said Employee as contemplated in the Original Agreement; and WHEREAS, Employee desires to accept the continued employment as City Manager of said City.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties agree to the following amendment to the Original Agreement, as follows:
AMENDMENT:
Section 6 of the Original Agreement is deleted in its entirety and amended, to read:
Section 6. Salary.
A. Employer agrees to pay Employee for his services rendered pursuant hereto a base salary of $250,000.00 (“Employee Base Salary”) from July 1, 2022 (“Base Salary Effective Date”), payable in equal installments at the same time as other employees of the Employer are paid. For the first fiscal year commencing from the Base Salary Effective Date, Employee shall be deemed at Step 10 under the 2022/23 salary schedule in effect as of the Amendment Effective Date (“Applicable Salary Schedule”) notwithstanding an inconsistency with the Employee Base Salary set forth in this Amendment (which applies for the first fiscal year) and the salary identified for the city manager in the Applicable Salary Schedule. Commencing on the second fiscal year after the Base Salary Effective Date (commencing July 1, 2023), and for each fiscal year thereafter in which Employee is employed pursuant to the Original Agreement (as may be amended including by this Amendment), ATTACHMENT 1

page 2
Employee’s base salary for the applicable fiscal year shall be the base salary that corresponds to the step level for the full time employee position of city manager as set forth in the Applicable Salary Schedule.
Employer may review the base salary and/or other benefits of Employee at the time of an annual evaluation which shall be initiated in May or June for each year of the Term. Employer may recommend adjustments to salary and/or other benefits to be memorialized by written amendment to the Original Agreement.
B. In addition to the annual base salary in Paragraph A above, Employee shall be entitled to $30,000.00 in annual deferred compensation. Any deferred compensation authorized pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid directly to a qualified retirement plan or supplemental retirement plan for Employee pursuant to the United States Internal Revenue Code or other lawful retirement plan authorized pursuant to applicable federal or state law (commonly referred to as a deferred compensation plan). Prior to any payment of deferred compensation to Employee pursuant to this paragraph, the City Council shall establish and authorize, if not previously established and authorized, the maintaining of a supplemental retirement plan in accordance with applicable law. Deferred compensation to Employee shall not be a payroll deduction and shall not be deemed or reported to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (“CalPERS”) as “compensation earnable” as long as such deferred compensation is paid directly to the supplemental retirement plan qualified for treating the deferred compensation as such. Any payment of deferred compensation pursuant to this paragraph to be paid to a supplemental retirement plan shall be paid no later than December 31 after the immediately completed prior fiscal year. In explanation of the previous sentence, any deferred compensation to a supplemental retirement plan shall be paid, for fiscal year 2022-23, no later than December 31, 2023. After the City Council duly establishes and authorizes the maintaining of the supplemental retirement plan, the City Council authorizes Employee or his designee(s) to execute any documents necessary or proper to maintain the supplemental retirement plan prior to any payment of deferred compensation to Employee.
MISCELLANEOUS:
Except as specifically defined in this Amendment, all capitalized words and phrases shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Original Agreement.
The Original Agreement and this Amendment shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties. Except as expressly amended by this Amendment, 52 Click Here to Return to Agenda

all of the terms and conditions in the Original Agreement remain in full force and effect.
If any provision, or any portion thereof, contained in this Amendment is held unconstitutional, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Amendment and the Original Agreement, or portion thereof, shall be deemed severable, shall not be affected, and shall remain in full force and effect.
This Amendment may be signed in counterparts with signature pages transmitted by email, facsimile, personal delivery or overnight delivery, all of which will be treated as originals.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS, ENGINEER’S ESTIMATE,
AND ADVERTISE FOR BID THE BLACKHAWK WAY SCHOOL CROSSING PROJECT 2022-22
RECOMMENDATION
Approve plans, specifications, engineer’s estimate, and authorize Staff to bid the Blackhawk Way School Crossing Project located on Blackhawk Way between Adams Street and Dune Palms Road.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• This project will include reconstructing asphalt concrete crosswalk with concrete pavement, reconstructing curb ramps and sidewalk to bring to current code. Improvements also include relocating the current rapid flash beacons onto compliant traffic signal poles, replacing the inroadway warning lights system, and replacing striping near La Quinta High School (Attachment 1).
• This project is not currently part of the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Staff is only requesting authorization to advertise and will present bids and request funding at a future meeting.
• Staff proposes to minimize impacts to the adjacent schools by completing the improvements over the school break in December.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is currently no fiscal impact to advertise the project. The following is the anticipated project budget:
Total Budget
Design: $ 16,000
Professional: $ 12,000
Inspection/Testing/Survey: $ 15,000
Construction: $ 153,000
Contingency: $ 20,000
Total Budget: $ 216,000
CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 8
61 Click Here to Return to Agenda
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The existing cross-walk pavement and in-roadway warning lights are failing and need to be replaced. In addition, the curb ramps are non-compliant. This project will bring the cross-walk into compliance and replace the asphalt pavement with more durable concrete pavement.
Due to the proximity to La Quinta High School, and the need to close the roadway during construction, staff proposes to have the improvements constructed during the school break in December to minimize impacts to school traffic.
Contingent upon approval to advertise the project for bid on October 4, 2022, the following is the project schedule:
Council Bid Authorization October 4, 2022
Bid Period October 6, 2022 to November 3, 2022

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE FIRST ROUND COMMUNITY SERVICES GRANTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2022/23
RECOMMENDATION
Approve first round Community Services Grants for fiscal year 2022/23.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• Council considers Community Services Grants and Economic Development/Marketing funding requests three times per fiscal year. • Thirteen grant applications were received and reviewed by the Community Services Grant Ad Hoc Committee (Committee).
FISCAL IMPACT
Total 2022/23 grant budget is $60,000 allocated to Community Service Grants (Account No. 101-3001-60510). Thirteen organizations submitted a total of $54,500 in grant requests. The Committee recommends funding $32,000 of these requests. If approved, the remaining balance would be $28,000.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PURSUANT TO SECTION 15061 (b)(3), COMMON SENSE EXEMPTION. LOCATION: CITY-WIDE
RECOMMENDATION
A. Make a finding, included in Ordinance No. ___, that adopting this ordinance is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) Review of Exemptions – Common Sense Rule and is consistent with the previously approved General Plan 2035 Environmental Impact Report.
B. Move to take up Ordinance No.___ by title and number only and waive further reading.
C. Move to introduce at first reading, Ordinance No.___ to amend various sections of Title 9 of the La Quinta Municipal Code and approve a zone change to clean up items.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Planning Staff periodically reviews the general plan, zoning map and municipal code for inconsistencies and proposes amendments to clean up these items.
Map amendments include changing land use and zoning designations to several parcels that were inadvertently changed at the last General Plan update in 2012.
Text amendments include clean-up of inconsistencies and clarification of language, and to allow development flexibility for tourist commercial 83 Click Here to Return to Agenda
homes in the Village Commercial district, allow live work units, and height exemptions for cell towers located within Major Community Facilities zones that are within Image Corridors.
The Planning Commission (PC) recommended approving the map amendments and zone changes on September 13, 2022.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
General Plan and Zoning Maps
Staff has been contacted by property owners in two instances regarding the zoning designation of their properties (Attachment 1). In the first instance, it was found that the property was inadvertently included as part of the Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) recharge ponds and mapped as Major Community Facilities during the last General Plan Update in 2012; however, the property is not a part of the recharge facility and is privately owned. It is proposed to be reverted back to its original designation of Low Density Residential. In the second instance, a small property within Rancho Santana was proposed to be used as retention and was designated as Parks and Recreation land use in the last General Plan update; however, that area is no longer needed to function as retention and is proposed to be reverted back to low density residential, which was confirmed by CVWD.
Zoning Text Amendments (Attachment 2)
Proposed changes to Title 9 include corrections of code inconsistencies, mistakenly deleted sections, unclear language discovered since previous code updates, and allowing additional development flexibility. Changes include the following:
1. Allowance for Commercial Tourist Homes in Village Commercial zone. a. Definition of Commercial Tourist Home was added, which reads:
“Commercial Tourist Home” means a unit located on a parcel size between 5,000 square feet and 10,000 square feet that is not occupied by an owner or manager and that is rented in its entirety to transient guests for a period of thirty (30) consecutive calendar days or less, subject to Chapter 3.24 Transient Occupancy Tax. b. Parking regulations were added for this use, consistent with hotel parking.
c. Added as a permitted use with a Conditional Use Permit in the Village Commercial zone. These project applications will come before the Planning Commission. Commercial Tourist Homes are intended for smaller parcels within the Village to allow for short term overnight stays.
84 Click Here to Return to Agenda
2. Allow for live/work units in mixed use areas to consist of one unit with a commercial use. Definition of Live/Work Unit was added, which reads:
“Live/Work Unit” is a single unit consisting of both a commercial/office and a residential component that is occupied by the same resident. The live/work unit shall be the primary dwelling of the occupant.” Staff recommends adding that the unit must “comply with all requirements of the California Building Code”.
3. Allow a height exemption for cell towers located within Major Community Facilities zones that are within Image Corridors to help increase cell service in the City.
4. Clean up density language for High Density Residential Zone to be consistent with recently changed Affordable Housing Overlay regulations.
5. Correct an incorrect code section cross reference in the appeals section.
6. Revise multifamily residential definition to allow for multifamily to be projects with two (2) or more units, rather than a minimum three (3) units.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Design and Development Department has determined that the project is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of CEQA, Common Sense Exemption, in that it can be seen with certainty that the project would not cause any adverse impacts on the environment.
PUBLIC REVIEW
Public Notice
This project was advertised in The Desert Sun newspaper on September 2, 2022. No comments have been received. Any written comments received will be handed out at the Planning Commission hearing.
Planning Commission Review
At its regular meeting of September 13, 2022, the PC recommended approval of the entire project, with the following recommended revision:
- Change “Tourist Commercial Homes” to “Village Hospitality Homes” throughout all of the proposed code changes, to avoid confusion with “Tourist Commercial” zoning district. If Council accepts this recommended revision, the final version will reflect this change.

9.140.090 MU mixed use overlay regulations.
A. Purpose. To facilitate the development of mixed use projects that include both multifamily residential and commercial components in a cohesively designed and constructed manner. The mixed use overlay district will contribute to vehicle trip and associated air pollutant reductions by locating residents in close proximity to services, employment, and transportation hubs, and by providing interconnected multi-purpose paths for alternative modes of transportation.
B. Applicability. The MU overlay district and the provisions of this section apply to all areas designated VC, CR, CP, CC, CN, CT and CO districts. These regulations shall apply in addition to the regulations of the underlying base district. In case of conflict between the base district and the MU regulations, the MU regulations shall control.
C. Definitions. See Chapter 9.280.
D. Permitted Uses.
1. Any use permitted or conditionally permitted in the underlying district.
2. Mixed use projects consisting of both multifamily residential (apartments, condominiums, live/work, and similar housing types) and commercial/office components.
E. Development Standards.
1. Mixed use projects shall include both a commercial and/or office component and a multifamily residential component, which are fully integrated with regard to access, connectivity, and public safety.
Residential uses with a density of twelve (12) to twenty-four (24) units, must comprise a minimum of thirty-five percent (35%) of the total square footage of the proposed project with the exception of conversion of existing commercial buildings or portions thereof to live/work units. Mixed use projects can be designed vertically (residential development over commercial development) or horizontally (residential development next to commercial development).
2. Minimum lot sizes shall be one (1) acre, with the exception of the VC district where lot sizes can be less than one (1) acre. To maximize design options, development of mixed use projects on lot assemblages or lots greater than one (1) acre is encouraged.
3. The use of vacant pads for mixed use projects in existing commercial development along Highway 111 is encouraged.
4. Minimum densities for residential development shall be twelve (12) dwelling units per acre, with the exception of conversion of existing commercial buildings or portions thereof to live/work units.
5. Maximum densities for residential development shall be twenty-four (24) dwelling units per acre.
Higher densities may be achieved through density bonuses, where applicable.
6. The residential component of mixed use projects shall be subject to the setback requirements of the underlying commercial district.
7. Maximum Height. A mixed use project may be up to twenty-five percent (25%) more in height than in the base district, if approved in the site development permit.

** Building height from forty-six (46) to sixty (60) feet may be permitted with approval of a CUP. See Section 9.70.110.
8. Floor Area Ratio (FAR). Mixed use projects are exempt from the floor area ratio requirements of the underlying district.
9. The first (ground) floor of a multi-story mixed use project located within three hundred (300) feet of the Highway 111 right-of-way shall consist of commercial and/or office development. Residential uses on the first (ground) floor are prohibited.
10. New buildings (constructed after the date of approval of this code) in mixed use projects shall not be longer than three hundred (300) feet to facilitate convenient public access around the building.
11. Pedestrian, bicycle, and other nonmotorized travel connections, including sidewalks, trails, and/or crosswalks, are required between the commercial/office and residential components of the project, as well as leading to/from street fronts, bus stops, public gathering places, and adjacent properties. They shall be located off-street and separated from vehicle travel lanes and parking lot driving aisles.
12. Physical barriers, such as walls and fences, between the commercial/office and residential components of a mixed use project are discouraged; however, they may be used where necessary and appropriate, including for public safety or the screening of outdoor storage facilities.
13. Public Spaces.
a. Public gathering spaces that provide active and/or passive amenities for passersby are highly encouraged. Communal spaces may include, but are not limited to, pedestrian plazas, shaded benches, public art, and landscape or hardscape features. b. Public spaces should be centrally located or located near active land uses to assure their frequent usage and safety.
14. Parking. Parking and loading requirements shall be in conformance with Chapter 9.150 of this code, subject to the following provisions:
a. Opportunities for shared and/or reduced parking between the commercial/office and residential components of the project are encouraged, subject to the requirements of Section 9.150.060 (Shared parking), as a means to better match parking demand with availability during various hours of the day.
b. Mixed use projects shall provide preferred parking for electric vehicles and vehicles using alternative fuels in accordance with Section 9.150.110.
15. Bicycle racks shall be provided to serve both commercial/office and residential components of the project, and shall comply with the requirements of Chapter 9.150.

19. Entry Drive. An entry drive that provides principal vehicular access into the residential component of the project is required.
20. Entry Statement. Projects with fifty (50) or more residential units shall include vehicular and pedestrian entry statements that convey a sense of arrival into the development. Examples include, but are not limited to, specimen trees, boulder groupings, textured or stamped concrete, and monument signage.
21. Special attention shall be given to the use of aesthetic treatments, such as colored/textured paving or decorative gates, that contribute to the overall image and connectivity of the development.
22. New mixed use development shall relate to adjacent single-family residential districts in the following ways:
a. By stepping down the scale, height, and density of buildings at the edges of the project adjacent to less intense development. Step the building down at the ends or sides nearest a single-family unit, to a height similar to that of the adjacent single-family unit (or of typical single-family residences in the vicinity if adjacent to an undeveloped single-family zoning district). b. By incorporating architectural elements and materials that are similar to those used in the neighborhood.
c. By locating parking areas within the project interior or at the side or back when necessary to achieve the "residential front yard" appearance.
d. By avoiding, wherever feasible, the construction of walls on local streets in existing neighborhoods where the wall would be located opposite front yards.
F. Mixed Use Incentives.
1. Mixed use projects that provide a minimum of thirty percent (30%) of total project square footage for retail uses shall receive a density bonus of ten percent (10%) for the residential component of the project.

9.200.110 Appeals.
For purposes of this section, the "board of appeals" shall be the planning commission for decisions appealed to the planning commission and shall be the city council for decisions appealed to the city council.
A. Persons Who May Appeal. Any interested person may appeal a decision of the director or the planning commission regarding the action taken on a development review permit application for a development project upon submittal of the required documents and information and the payment of the required fee.
B. Call-Up Review. The board of appeals (either the planning commission or city council), on its own motion adopted by a majority vote of its total membership, may elect to call up and review any decision of the director or the planning commission regarding the action taken on a development review permit application. The planning commission's or city council's call-up review shall be processed in accordance with this section
C. Appeal Procedures.
1. Time Limits for Filing Appeals.
a. All appeals, except call-up reviews pursuant to subsection B, shall be filed with the director within fifteen (15) calendar days of the date on which the decision being appealed was rendered. If the fifteenth day is a nonworking day for the city, the appeal period shall be extended to include the next city working day. No appeal shall be accepted after the appeal period has expired.
b. A request for call-up review pursuant to subsection B shall be initiated by a member of a board of appeals (either the planning commission or city council) delivering written request for call-up review to the city manager or designee within fifteen (15) calendar days of the date on which the decision of the director or the planning commission (as applicable) was rendered. Upon timely receipt of the request for call-up review, the city manager or designee shall schedule as an agenda item at the next regular meeting of the board of appeals, on which the member calling up review is seated, the question whether an appeal shall be considered for the decision subject to call-up review. If the next regular meeting of the board of appeals is cancelled, the city manager or designee shall reschedule the question whether an appeal shall be considered at the next regular meeting that is not cancelled. No appeal may be heard on a decision subject to call-up review unless a majority of the membership of the board of appeals votes to approve the consideration of the appeal. The board of appeals shall consider the appeal that was subject to call-up review not later than forty-five (45) days after the board of appeals votes to approve consideration of the appeal. An appeal may be heard and decided at the same meeting at which the majority of the membership voted to approve the call-up review, provided no applicable law would be violated if the hearing of an appeal occurs at the same meeting. A member of the city council may initiate the call-up review process for a director's decision on a development review permit, without the need for review of that decision by the planning commission, in which case an appeal of the decision subject to call-up review may be considered directly by the city council if a majority of the membership of the city council vote to approve the consideration of the appeal pursuant to this section.
2. Required Documents. Each appeal, except for call-up reviews, shall be in writing and shall include all grounds for the appeal and sufficient information so as to make it clear to the planning commission or city council the substance of each of the grounds for appeal. The director may require that the written appeal be accompanied by such other documents and information that 109 Click Here to Return to Agenda
Created: 2022-07-20 15:42:51 [EST]
(Supp. No. 2)
the director determines to be necessary to adequately explain and provide proper notification for the appeal. No appeal shall be accepted if it fails to contain the grounds for the appeal and the description of the grounds.
3. Forwarding of Records. When an appeal has been received, the director shall forward to the planning commission or city council all documents and information on file pertinent to the appeal together with the minutes or official action of the decision-making authority and a report on the basis of the decision.
4. Public Hearing Requirements. If the original approving action did not require a public hearing, the appeal review shall not require a public hearing. If the original approving action required a public hearing, the appeal review shall also require a public hearing. Notice and scheduling requirements for an appeal hearing shall be the same as those for an original hearing as described in Section 9.200.110100.
5. Issues to Be Considered. The planning commission or city council may refuse to consider any issues which were not raised by the appellant or another person either by verbal testimony or written correspondence made at or before the time the decision-making authority took action.
When reviewing a decision-making authority's decision via its own call-up review, the planning commission or city council may raise and consider any issue it deems appropriate to the project application.
6. Action on Appeal. Not later than forty-five (45) days after an appeal has been received and accepted by the director, the planning commission or city council shall consider the appeal and take one (1) of the following actions:
a. Take action to sustain, reverse or modify the original decision. If an original decision to approve a project is modified, the planning commission or city council may modify permitted land uses, place additional or different conditions of approval on the project, direct that revisions be made to project plans, or require other project modifications. b. Continue the appeal for further consideration.
c. Refer the application back to the original decision-making authority with directions.
7. Majority Vote. Action by the planning commission or city council to reverse or modify an appealed decision shall require a majority vote of appeal board members present. If there is a tie vote, the original decision shall stand.
