Summary

The Kern County Planning Commission approved its consent calendar and voted to forward a proposed zone change (Case No. 1, Zone Change 126 / Map 23019) for the Rosemond area to the Kern County Board of Supervisors for final consideration.

The Kern County Planning Commission voted to approve its consent calendar and to recommend that the Kern County Board of Supervisors adopt a proposed zone change affecting the Rosemond area.

Planning staff, represented by Mr. Murphy, told the commission: “The case this evening is case number 1, zone Change126, map 23019.” He said the applicant is Rosemond 26 LLC, represented by McIntosh and Associates, and that the project is located approximately 1,500 feet east of 35th Street West, south of Rosemond Boulevard in the Rosemond area. The item was described in the staff report as a change in zone classification “from a 1 to r 1 FPS or a more restrictive district,” and staff recommended the commission advise the Board of Supervisors to adopt the draft resolution, findings and ordinance accompanying the file.

A commissioner moved to approve the consent calendar item and the motion was seconded. The commission took a voice vote; the transcript records the motion as carrying with “5 ayes.” Planning staff noted that the commission’s action is advisory and that the Board of Supervisors will have final authority and will be scheduled to consider the item for final action.

At the same meeting the commission also approved the minutes of the March 26 meeting after a motion and second and a voice vote in favor. There were no public presentations or hearings on the agenda, and the meeting concluded shortly after the consent action when a commissioner moved to adjourn and the chair declared the meeting adjourned.

The commission’s approval on the consent calendar sends the zone-change recommendation to the Kern County Board of Supervisors, which will make the final decision. The staff report and draft resolution were referenced at the hearing; the transcript does not record the Board’s schedule or the date for that final consideration.

Next steps: the Board of Supervisors will receive the commission’s recommendation and will schedule the item for final consideration; the transcript does not specify a date for the Board’s hearing.
