COMMISSION CONCERNS
Thanked Home Depot, Orange County Animal Control, and
the Orange County Fire Authority personnel for saving the
cat rec,ently rescued through their efforts.
Complimented staff's work on the aboveground facility
Ordinance and the outreach which was provided to explain
the City's process.
Referred to a recent newspaper article concerning traffic-
calming efforts by the City of Oceanside; and, suggested a
workshop by the Engineering and Planning Departments on
this subject would be useful.
Asked what is happening on the double lot on Newport
Avenue.
Responded that the previous owner has gone into
foreclosure; the company involved in financing that
applicant is putting the property up for sale; Dr. Shepherd is
therefore unable to begin due to the conditions of approval
requiring the entire site be developed.
Asked if there is any way to assist Dr. Shepherd.
Responded that the situation is awkward because this is a
matter that could be coming before the Planning
Commission soon; staff is looking at different alternatives to
see what can be done; all the entitlements were approved
as a total project; when one bows out, much depends upon
Action Agenda - Planning Commission September 10, 2001 - Page 3
whether the current or future owner will cooperate; staff is
sympathetic to Dr. Shepherd's situation.
