Re: Support - Agenda Item 10.1, April 14, 2026 City Council Meeting We're writing to express our full support for the recommendations of Item 10.1 namely:
(1) Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), finding that all potentially significant impacts have been mitigated to less-than-significant levels; and
(2) Approve General Plan Amendment GPA 26-01 to amend the General Plan Land Use Designation from Commercial (C) to Commercial-Housing Opportunity Overlay (C-HO) for the 2.36-acre site at 201 New Morning Court (APN 325-240-016); and (3) Introduce and waive the first reading of an Ordinance approving Zone Change ZC 26-01 to amend the Zoning Map from Commercial (C) to Commercial-Housing Opportunity Overlay (C-HO) for the same site.
With this overlay the City of Placerville is effectively taking charge of your housing plans. You're to be commended for doing what all local jurisdictions should be doing; planning ahead and delivering housing to meet the needs of all residents.
The thoughtful and diligent work by the Placerville Planning Commission and staff is a continuation of the kind of smart, pro-active, advance planning that has resulted in the City of Placerville successfully meeting your Regional Housing Needs Assessment goals and ensuring that you meet the housing needs of all of your residents.
We wholeheartedly urge you to approve these recommendations.
Sincerely,
Maureen Dion-Perry, President
Frank Porter, Vice-President
