The Twentynine Palms Planning Commission unanimously approved the consent calendar and agreed to cancel the meeting scheduled for the 18th after staff said a planned application would not be ready in time.

The action came after roll call confirmed all commissioners were present and a brief period for public comments produced no speakers. Commissioners offered short reports on recent civic activities, including support for the Joshua Tree National Park Council for the Arts event and volunteer work at a local food bank, where one commissioner described long lines and limited supplies.

A motion "to accept the consent calendar as presented" was made and seconded; the commission then took a roll-call vote with each member saying "aye." The chair announced the consent calendar approved.

At the Community Development Director update, staff said an application intended for the meeting "on the eighteenth" would not be ready and asked the commission for permission to cancel that meeting. "I will not have anything for you on the eighteenth to to consider. So, with the planning commission's permission, we can go ahead and cancel that one," the community development director said. The commission signaled no opposition; staff said the next meeting would be Dec. 16 and that Dec. 2 conflicts with the city’s holiday festivities.

The meeting closed its business portion and moved into a study-session block. The chair noted the agenda items for the study session were all topics the commission had previously considered and described the four items as confirmations of prior direction rather than new decisions.

No ordinances, resolutions, permits, project approvals, or contested public hearings were decided during the portion of the meeting covered in the transcript.
