Council rescinds entitlements for Uveland resort project after applicant withdraws
Summary
Council approved the rescission of previously granted entitlements for the Uveland resort project after the applicant cited market conditions and requested rescission; the action passed unanimously.
City planning staff told the council the Uveland (upland) resort project — which previously included approvals for cabins, lodges and employee housing — is no longer feasible and the applicant formally requested rescission of all city actions. The proposal covered general plan amendments, rezoning, development code amendments and a conditional use permit. Staff recommended the council find the rescission exempt from CEQA and proceed with first reading of an ordinance rescinding prior approvals and adopt associated resolutions.
Public commenters representing Indian Cove Neighbors urged the council to rescind the entitlements; speaker Sydney Benard thanked council for moving quickly. Council moved to conduct the first reading of the rescission ordinance and adopt Resolution No. 26‑26 rescinding prior planning approvals; the motion passed on a 5–0 roll call.
Why it matters: The rescission returns the previously changed zoning and related entitlements to their prior status and removes a major proposed development from the city's work program; residents expressed relief at the return of open‑space conservation options.
