Dear Mr. Batchelor:
With respect to the above referenced rezoning application, we
are facing a State Streamlining Act deadline in early June, and
would like to request approval of the Board of Supervisors to
withdraw the application and submit a new application with a
waiver of the application fees.
The processing on the application has taken significantly
longer than either the applicant or staff had anticipated,
primarily because of CEQA requirements. It was ultimately
determined that in order to properly and adequately 'address all
of the issues raised relative to the application, a supplement
to the original EIR on the previously approved project on the
site would be necessary.
This supplement has not yet been completed and, therefore, it
will be impossible to meet the legal requirement for the
circulation of the document and the required public hearings by
the deadline.
We understand that this action in no way implies approval of
the project itself or waiver of any other applicable County
fees.
Thank you for your consideration of this request and please
call if you have any questions.
Sincerely yours ,
Linda Best
