Councilmember Herrera Spencer stated the designation for commercial recreational should be moved up under parks and wildlife. The Planning, Building and Transportation Director stated staff can move the designation, if Council desires to do so. Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft questioned whether a motion is being made. Councilmember Herrera Spencer moved approval of moving the commercial recreation under parks and wildlife on page 51 of the General Plan and adding that no residential uses are permitted in all areas, as well as any commercial use needed to enhance the use. The Assistant City Attorney stated that she recommends Council take action on the final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prior to a motion on the General Plan. Councilmember Knox White moved approval of the final EIR [including adoption of the related resolution.] Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft inquired whether separate votes are needed for the matter. The Assistant City Attorney responded one vote certifying the final EIR and adopting the findings is needed. Vice Mayor Vella seconded the motion. Under discussion, Councilmember Daysog stated that he will not be supporting adoption of the final EIR due to the contemplation of certain areas which are still at the heart of the previous matter, the amount of housing at shopping centers and the possibility of multi-family housing overlays and associated impacts; the General Plan discussion is intriguing and carefully vetted questions are needed. On the call for the question the motion carried by the following roll call vote: Councilmembers Daysog: No; Herrera Spencer: No; Knox White: Aye; Vella: Aye; and Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft: Aye. Ayes: 3. Noes: 2. Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft requested clarification of the motion made by Councilmember Herrera Spencer.
