Commission adopts consent items, hears updates on dog park, signage and traffic-signal delays
Loading...
Summary
The Adelanto Planning Commission approved a consent resolution on a tentative tract map extension and discussed several community items including oversight committee nominations, a dog park, truck-signage requests and a stalled traffic signal near the high school.
The Adelanto Planning Commission adopted Resolution P16-10 on the consent calendar to allow a third extension for tentative tract map 17193, which would subdivide the property into 121 single-family lots, and then heard a series of community updates.
Commissioners asked about the marijuana-oversight committee; staff reported the city manager had selected four of five members. Commissioners also received a progress report on plans for a dog park. Several commissioners and residents raised a traffic-safety concern on Crippen, where 18-wheelers have been using a residential street despite signage; commissioners asked staff to work with the city engineer to place additional signs at east and west ends of Crippen.
The planning commission also discussed a long-delayed traffic signal at Mojave (Mohave) and Bellflower tied to a high-school development. Staff and public speakers said the Victor Valley Unified School District had responsibility for the signal and that prior city staff had sent letters to district officials but received no response. Mayor Kerr later said he would press the district and noted the city attorney would attend the commission's first-Tuesday meetings to advise on important agenda items.
Commissioners suggested a workshop with city staff and developers to identify regulatory or fee changes that might speed economic development and better align local ordinances with current commercial needs.
The meeting ended after commissioners moved to adjourn.
