STATUS:
On July 8, 2019, the Developer for Site Plan Review, SPR P-2008047 (the "Warner Parking Structure") at 8511 Warner Drive submitted to Building Safety, a building permit plan check application. The building permit plans are under review and the entitlement is now considered exercised and no further extensions are required.
BACKGROUND:
On May 13, 2009, the Planning Commission approved Site Plan Review, SPR P-2008047 (the "Warner Parking Structure") for construction of a parking structure with 775 parking spaces, 41,520 square feet of retail space, and 10,000 square feet of restaurant space within a five level, 43 foot high development (the "Project"). After an appeal to the Planning Commission decision, the City Council, on August 3, 2009, approved the Project with revisions to four Conditions of Approval as originally approved by the Planning Commission (the "Entitlement"). As discussed during the recent Planning Commission and City Council hearings, the proposed project includes a change to remove one level of subterranean parking.
On October 15, 2018 the Developer submitted a request for a time extension of the Project entitlement expiration. Previously, eight 1-year extensions to the entitlement were granted pursuant to CCMC Section 17.595.030 - Time Limits and Extensions. The Director referred the ninth extension request to the Planning Commission. On January 10, 2018, the Planning Commission granted a ninth 1-year extension to January 10, 2019. On January 9, 2019, the Planning Commission approved a six (6) month extension to July 10, 2019, with the requirement that the Project be in plan check on or before that date to ensure the site plan review is exercised. On June 11, 2019, the Developer met with Building Safety, Public Works, Fire Prevention, and Current Planning staff to review the Project prior to plan check submittal. As noted above, on July 8, 2019, the Developer submitted to Building Safety, a building permit plan check application, prior to the July 10, 2019 expiration date.
MOTION
That the Planning Commission:
Receive and file staff's report on the status of Site Plan Review, SPR P-2008047 approving a parking structure at 8511 Warner Drive.
