COMMISSION CONCERNS: Commissioner Vandaveer - None Commissioner Bone Asked if staff would provide copies of all public hearing notices to the Planning Commission members prior to appearance of the notices in the newspaper. Staff will see that this is done. Inquired if staff was aware of new legislation concerning exemption of cellular phone towers from local zoning. Staff stated that they have been working with the'Public Utilities Commission and it appears that both the PUC and public cellular companies are generally supportive of keeping local control over the siting of local cellular facilities. Staff will keep the Commission informed of the status of any proposed legislation and will follow up with a report at the next regular meeting as to what action may be needed and if.the City will need to contact contingencies in Washington concerning this legislation. Planning Commission Action Agenda August 14, 1995 Page 7 Inquired if Planning Commission information was distributed to the Public Library and to the Police Department as a matter of routine. Staff responded that the Public Library receives the information on a regular basis but it is not currently distributed to the public counter of the Police Department. Reported that the news racks at the car wash near the Post-Office on First Street were blocking the sidewalk and asked to have something done about it. Staff will refer the matter to the Public Works Department for follow up. Commissioner Mitzman Inquired if the City had received any complaints about the extremely bright parking lot lights at the new McDonalds at Tustin Ranch. 'Staff responded that there had been some contact with the City concerning this matter and that conditions imposed concerning the wall around the Tustin Ranch frontage and drive aisle along Bryan Avenue as well as some of the landscaping had been bonded for and were not yet completed. The business owner has indicated that they wish to modify the original conditions of approval imposed by the City Council to relieve them of these requirements. The matter is tentatively scheduled for September 18, 1995. Commented that he thought it nice that the new Chuy's Restaurant had chosen Tustin for their first California location and that Mrs. Gooches also chose Tustin as its first Orange County location.

Planning Commission Action Agenda August 14, 1995 Page 8 Inquired if the railroad track at Walnut between Myford and Franklin Avenues was being used, stating that the crossing was a nightmare for vehicles.
