Proposed amendments to the TCC, DCCSP, and RHASP do not reduce the intensity or density of any land uses or zoning designations. Therefore, the proposed amendments comply with SB 330. TRIBAL CONSULTATION (SB 18) SB 18 requires, for Specific Plan and General Plan Amendments, that cities reach out to Native American Tribes listed on a consultation list provided by the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC). Tribes have a minimum of 90 days to request consultation. Tribal consultation notice sent on August 13, 2024. Tribes had until November 11, 2024 to submit a request for consultation. To date, staff did not received a request for consultation. Tribal concerns are not anticipated since the proposal is a text amendment, and will not increase the level or amount of ground disturbance.
