PlanningBoard | 2016-02-08 | 3 | Board Member Burton moved approval of the item with the above additions regarding the sidewalk and lane markings. Board Member Henneberry seconded the motion. Board Member Zuppan said she would not be supporting the motion because she feels the design does not fit in with the rest of the shopping center. President Knox White said he was happy to see the sidewalk finally happening and that the crosswalk across Shoreline would be returning and connecting the beach to the shopping center. President Knox White called for a vote on the motion to approve the staff recommendation with the changes to the conditions requiring the shared lane markings and sidewalk to be complete before issuance of the certificate of occupancy. The motion passed 6-1 (Zuppan opposed). 7-B 2016-2557 Approve a Resolution Recommending a Zoning and General Plan Map Amendment for 721 Santa Clara Avenue from R-5 (General Residential) zone to C-C (Community Commercial) zone and from Medium Density Residential to Community Commercial, respectively (PLN15-0238; Assessor's Parcel Number 073-0420-021).
