Council forms ad hoc review for Bolsa Chica senior project; staff to notify developer
Summary
The council approved an ad hoc committee to review information relied on when it approved the Bolsa Chica senior living specific plan; the committee will notify the project proponent that the city intends to re‑examine presentations and supporting documents and may recommend amendments or other actions if inaccuracies are found.
Councilmembers Don Kennedy, Casey McKeon and others won approval to form an ad hoc committee to review the information and analysis used during the October 15 public hearing that led to approval of the Bolsa Chica and Warner senior living specific plan.
Council Member Don Kennedy summarized the item and said the ad hoc panel's purpose is to "revisit the information, data and analysis, that support the Bolsa Chica and Warner Senior Living project and to verify accuracy and determine any stated or written inaccuracies." The council approved a motion directing the city manager and city attorney to send the project proponents a formal written notification that the ad hoc committee intends to further evaluate the materials presented at the October hearing.
Nut graf: The action authorized staff to notify the developer that the city will review the administrative record and related materials. The ad hoc committee's scope includes identifying inconsistencies or incomplete information that could affect the specific plan's approval; council said potential outcomes could include amendments, revocation, or other measures if material inaccuracies are found.
The motion passed unanimously (7‑0). Council did not immediately direct the committee to take any specific action beyond notifying the project proponents and beginning its review, and staff will coordinate the legal and procedural approach with the city attorney.
Ending: The council approved the ad hoc notice and review; staff will prepare the notification and proceed with the committee's review process on the schedule the council directed.
