PUBLIC COMMENT
14. LIBRARY MASTER GARDNER MOU
In March of 2021, the Loomis Library and Community Learning Center was approached by the UC Master Gardeners of Placer County with the idea of creating community demonstration gardens on the grounds of the Library. The Loomis Library and the UC Master Gardeners of Placer County have long-standing partnership, including many public workshops and the Seed Library. The community has always responded well to these partnerships, with many of the workshops being among our best attended.
Staff believes using the Library grounds for a space for community gardens would be mutually beneficial to the UC Master Gardeners, the Library, and the community as a whole. This partnership will help to beautify the existing library grounds, as well as creating an outdoor classroom that will be usable for library events.

PUBLIC COMMENT
15. SIERRA CHRISTIAN CHURCH - Request for processing General Plan/Land Use Amendment Sierra Christian Church has approached the Town under the current 2020-2040 General Plan Update process to request a Land Use Designation Change from Residential Estate designation (1 dwelling unit per 2.3 acres) to Residential High Density (10-15 dwelling units per acre) at 5645 Rocklin Road (APN 045- 150-033). The General Plan Land Use Committee denied their request to be included in the General Plan Update process and directed Sierra Christian Church to proceed with a formal request to the Town Council for their consideration in moving forward with their proposal.
As required in Chapter 13.76.020(B), at this time, the applicant seeks Council approval to proceed with a General Plan Land Use and Zoning Designation amendment outside of the Town’s regular General Plan Update process which is anticipated to be completed in December 2022.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt Resolution #22-** to allow Sierra Christian Church to proceed with filing an application for a new project that will require a General Plan and Land Use Designation Map Amendment for a proposed 70 units senior (62+) affordable housing project in multiple buildings within the existing five acre site of the Sierra Christian Church and Loomis Head Start location.
