15303 OF THE CALIFORNIA EQUALITY ACT (CEQA)
TO DETERMINE THAT SECONDHAND SALES ARE PERMITTED

Recommendation - It is recommended that the Planning Commission
determine by Minute Motion that secondhand sales are permitted with
a conditional use permit within the Commercial General (CG)
District.
Presentation: Daniel Fox, Senior Planner
Commissioner Mitzman asked if books would be purchased as well as
sold.
Staff stated "yes".
Commissioner Baker stated that his concern was with appearances
and perceptions in the shopping center. He assumes the landlord
would do the policing on this and he has no problem with this
particular use.
Commissioner Weil stated that approval of this item is opening up
the possibility of any kind of second hand sale not just for books.
Since the next use may not be quite so appealing she is very much
in favor of the conditional use permit requirement.
Commissioner well moved, Lunn seconded, to approve
Determination 94-004 by Minute Motion. Motion carried 5-0.
