CONSENT CALENDAR (Continued) '-
In May 1985, the Agency adopted a Projects Procedure Manual and an Implementation
Plan/Design Manual Addendum as support documents to the Otay Valley Road
Redevelopment Plan. These documents describe the processes the Agency Board should
follow and staff should use in processing development plans that are presented. It was
meant to be responsive to changing circumstances and to be amended as necessary
to facilitate the smooth and efficient processing of proposals. To allow for ample Agency
control of the project but facilitate the streamlined processing schedule desired by the
developer, the Planning and Community Development Departments request that the
Agency invoke its authority to delegate certain matters to staff; and, therefore, that
following Design Review, Planning Commission and Agency approval of the Precise
Plan, administrative approvals be allowed for the review of each development phase as
long as it is consistent with the overall Precise Plan approved for the development.
(Community Development Director)
Staff recommendation: Redevelopment Agency adopt the resolution.
