Although there is a 10 day appeal period, we suggest that the matter be set for the earliest possible City Council meeting, because the purpose of any appeal is to have a hearing before the City Council and this is already being accomplished. We further suggest that you not accept any appeal, as it will serve no purpose. If approval has been recommended other than as requested, the City Council will be required to hold a public hearing on this matter. However, there is a possibility that the Planning Commission's decision will be appealed; therefore, we suggest that publication be held off until the 10 day appeal period has expired. If denial has been recommended, the City Council may summarily deny the request. However, we suggest that the matter not be scheduled on the City Council agenda until the 10 day appeal period has expired.

BOX 190 CALIFORNIA 92648 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Planning Commission DATE: August 13 , 1974 ATTN: David D. Rowlands, City .Administrator RE: CODE AMENDMENT NO. 74-7 Transmitted herewith is .a copy of Code Amendment No. 74-7 . The intent of said Amendment ,is -to ,provide for retail nurseries as an unclassified use, which will allow their •inalusion in areas in addition to the commercial districts. As unclassified uses, the retail nurseries will require a Conditional Use Permit, however retail nurseries in the commercial districts, as well as wholesale nurseries in the RA (Residential Agriculture) and ,Al (Agricultural District) are not subject to the Conditional Use Permit process. The Planning Commission considered .the proposed amendment at its meet- ing of August 6, 1974, and after discussions with the Planning staff, unanimously approved Code Amendment No. 74-7, and recommends approval by your Honorable Body. The Environmental Review Board, at its meeting of, July 16, 1974 , granted the Code Amendment Exemption Declaration No. 74-95, having found that the proposed project will not have a significant adverse effect upon the physical environment. It was the consensus of the Board that the retail operation as proposed by the Code Amendment would be less environmentally offensive than that of a wholesale operation. The State Planning Act requires that a public hearing be held, after which the Code Amendment -may be adopted by Ordinance. Res c u ly chardA.

BOX 190 92648 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Environmental Review Board DATE: July 16 , 1974 SUBJECT: Exemption Declaration No. 74-95 (CA 74-7) The Environmental Review Board, at its meeting of July 16, 1974, granted the above exemption declaration, having found that the proposed project will not have a significant adverse effect upon the physical environment. No environmental impact report has been prepared for this project, and the Negative Declaration issued for the project has been properly posted in the office of the City Clerk. These findings are based on information contained in the Exemp- tion Declaration request. Additional Information: The Board had received a letter of protest regarding this appli- cation: Following is the Board' s discussion on the letter filed: The Board reviewed the difference between, retail and wholesale nursery operation. It was the consensus that the retail operation as. proposed :by. the Code Amendment would be less environmentally offensive that the whole- sale operation, as such uses would: 1. Not require the types .and quantities of chemicals, in- secticides, and fertilizers normally used at wholesale operations 2. Under the formal applications to permit the retail uses, the city would require . parking to serve the use to al- leviate traffic problems 3 . The permit would also require storage facilities and screening walls to aesthetically improve the site. James W. Palin, Secretary Environmental Review Board JWP:df
