Mayor Pro Tem Scott expressed his disappointment that staff has not followed through on his request related to the moratorium that becomes problematic when approving projects. This had nothing to do with AB 98, but City staff mixed it in together and hopes it can be resolved.

He inquired about the Renaissance Parkway zone between Linden Avenue and Alder Avenue. The City Council gave clear direction related to the properties currently zoned warehouse that any existing, vacant properties be re-zoned for retail/commercial.

It is the belief of the City Council that it would add more opportunities for retail/commercial along Renaissance Parkway by the freeway that would be very beneficial to the community.
