Interim planning director Jeff Bond told the commission the Planning Department received four ADU applications in May (three ADUs and one junior ADU) and so far approved one ADU and one junior ADU; staff also processed an indoor advertising catalog film permit.

Interim Planning and Building Director Jeff Bond reported to the commission that the Planning Department received four accessory dwelling unit (ADU) applications in May — three ADUs and one junior ADU — and that staff had approved one ADU and one junior ADU so far. He also said nine director‑level design reviews were submitted in May with one approved to date.

Bond noted the department processed a film permit for a predominantly indoor advertising catalog shoot with a few exterior photographs; staff will confirm the exact address if requested. Commissioners asked whether ADU applications are trending upward and Bond said staff would analyze the month‑over‑month data and report back at a future meeting.

Commissioners discussed how larger productions can affect parking and public safety and staff noted film permits are routed through multiple departments for public‑safety and street‑closure considerations.
