The Long Beach Planning Board adjourned consideration of building-permit requests for 29 Curley Street and 104 California Street after members found the submitted renderings and plans insufficient for architectural review.

At the start of the 29 Curley discussion, members described the lot as vacant and said the renderings "are a really weak set" and do not provide enough information to make findings. Board member Lucas moved to adjourn the matter until the next meeting and require the applicant or a representative to appear and provide better renderings; the motion passed on the record with members voting to adjourn.

The board then considered 104 California Street and again flagged that renderings lacked clarity (missing gutters/downspouts, unclear deck and garage orientation, and an overall lack of detailed plans). One member said the rendering "gives you the impression that [the house] is standing alone on a beach somewhere" and others reiterated concerns about drainage in the congested West End area. The board voted unanimously to adjourn 104 California Street to the next meeting and asked staff to notify applicants to appear with detailed plans and renderings.

A board representative clarified why the first application (400 East Olive Street) was approved while the other two were adjourned: the approved application included more detailed renderings and sufficient information for the board to reach a decision. Adjournments were recorded as procedural postponements pending applicant representation.

Both adjourned items are scheduled to return at the next meeting with the expectation that an applicant representative or architect will be present to answer questions and provide clearer plans.
