Planning Commission approves Jan. 7 minutes, selects volunteers for TAC interview panel
Summary
The commission approved minutes from its Jan. 7 meeting by a 4-0 vote and identified two commissioners to serve on an ad hoc committee to interview Transportation Advisory Committee candidates; staff noted council will handle recruitment next week and there are nine applicants for the open staff seat.
The San Ramon Planning Commission approved the minutes of its Jan. 7, 2025 regular meeting by a 4-0 vote and appointed two commissioners to an ad hoc committee to interview applicants for the city’s Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC).
At the start of the meeting a motion was made to accept the Jan. 7 minutes; the motion was seconded and the chair recorded the vote as passed 4-0. The transcript does not record individual roll-call votes.
Later in the meeting the commission asked for two volunteers to serve on an ad hoc committee to interview TAC applicants. Commissioner Alpert volunteered and Commissioner Wallace indicated willingness to serve; staff said the City Council would discuss the interview process the following week and that there are nine applicants for an open staff position.
Why it matters: The committee appointments will let planning commissioners participate in candidate interviews for the Transportation Advisory Committee and help the city screen applicants ahead of council action. Approving minutes is a routine procedural action but is recorded here for meeting transparency.
Next steps: Staff said the City Council will discuss interview procedures and candidate selection at an upcoming council meeting; the ad hoc committee will participate in TAC interviews as scheduled by staff and the council. The planning commission also noted upcoming joint sessions and hearings related to the general plan and zoning amendments with tentative dates in late March or early April.
Ending note: No other formal votes were taken on substantive land-use entitlements during the meeting; the Camino Ramon study session remained informational and will return to the commission after further staff review.
