commented on issues including the General Plan, size of surrounding
properties, water and sewer access, the utility criteria, the
different zoning on the parcel and he requested approval of the minor
subdivision.
Supervisor Torlakson requested clarification on the issue of the
.General Plan and the zoning being inconsistent.
Karl Wandry, Community Development Department, responded that no
CEQA review was done on the project as it is not an approvable project

the criteria for utilities applies in residential areas in the East
County Plan not agricultural or agricultural residential areas.
