Zoning & Planning Updates

Please go to the Zoning & Planning Committee page for more information on the following:

*Malibu Wines  We were recently informed that they have requested a modification of their original application and asking for a 20% increase in occupancy plus an extension of operating hours. WHNC requested mail notifications be sent to residents within 300-500 feet of the site.  Malibu Wines is tentatively scheduled to be on the October 14 Zoning & Planning Committee meeting Agenda.

*Starbucks 24-Hr Drive Thru Coffee Shop  We unexpectedly received notification this project is ready to be considered by the City Zoning Hearing Officer on September 9, same day as our Zoning & Planning Committee meeting.  We requested the hearing be postponed to ensure neighbors receive hearing notifications and sufficient time to respond.  WHNC would like to submit a determination letter to City Planning.

*SB 79  Tuesday, August 19, the City Council voted In Favor of the  Resolution in opposition to SB79 sponsored by Councilmembers Lee and Park. Mayor Bass signed the Resolution opposing the measure unless it is amended to exempt cities with a state-approved and compliant housing element.  SB79 is currently in the Assembly Appropriations Committee. Contact Assemblymember Jesse Gabriel, District 46 at his offices: Encino Office: 818-380-2460, email: [email protected] Sacramento Office: 916-319-2026.  Suggested Letter to Assembly members -Vote No on SB79
