Unfortunately, due to the posting of an inaccurate notice, Item Number UP 21-24/CE 21-05 for the December 16, 2021 Lake County Planning Commission Agenda will require re-noticing.
The notice published on December 06, 2021 noticed the recommendation of a categorical exemption when it should have noticed the recommendation of an Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration of Major Use Permit (UP 21-24/CE 21-05).
Because of the re-noticing requirement, the Planning Commission may hear comments on the Item UP 21-24/CE 21-05, but any decision by the Planning Commission will need to be reserved for a final hearing at a later date after accurate notice is posted.
The attached staff report and other documents regarding the Reapplication for Amendment of UP 21-24/CE 21-05 are provided for Item Number 2 on the December 16, 2021 Lake County Planning Commission Agenda.
These documents analyze and address the Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
