Commissioner Tragish asked Ms. Shaw if there were any crossovers? Ms. Shaw said she is not aware of any. He also asked if there are any other accesses to the west so that the farmer can get onto his property off of Pacheco? Ms. Shaw said that Pacheco still exists as a roadway, it is simply not a collector anymore. Commissioner Tkac asked when Castle and Cooke submitted the application for this project? Mr. Grady said that at least 49 days ago. Commissioner Tkac also asked about the time frame for the adjacent property owners to get noticed. Mr. Grady said they will usually get noticed at least 20 days prior to the hearing date. Commissioner Gay asked if Pacheco will go down to a 60 foot width street? Ms. Shaw said that it will no longer be shown on the Circulation Element as a collector. It could be used as a local or could be eliminated altogether. Commissioner Gay asked staff if they are comfortable with eliminating Pacheco and asked if by Thursday staff could give an answer? He has a concern about Harris and Pacheco being vacated on recording of the parcel map as condition number 17 states. He has a concern about giving up east/west access through the property. Commissioner Tragish asked if Progress Road is maintained by the City? Ms. Shaw said she did not think so but would check. Commissioner Tragish also asked about condition 17 and the vacating of Harris Road. Ms. Shaw said she is not sure why condition 17 mentions Harris as being vacated but she will check on it.
