Justina Willkom indicated that Juan Suarez, the architect, received a copy of the report; and,
indicated he had not called with any questions.
The Zoning Administrator indicated the primary concern regarded the issuance of the proper
permits.
The Zoning Administrator approved Zoning Administrator Action 04-011 approving
Design Review 04-014 and Minor Adjustment 04-001.
The Zoning Administrator indicated there is a seven-day appeal period. If there is no appeal,
the applicant may proceed. The Zoning Administrator asked if the proper permits have been
issued.
Ms. Willkom answered the applicant must first submit; she will be working with the architect.
Ms. Bizarro indicated it was her understanding that the reduction of spaces was something
that the City had requested because there was not enough space for the original amount
planned.
Ms. Willkom stated that there are Tustin City Code requirements regarding major
improvements; since the structure is listed in the Historic Survey, a Minor Adjustment would
be allowed, according to the submitted building plans.
