Approved / entitled
Approved by the City Council on 2026-09-15, according to the Council's DRAFT minutes (the Council approves minutes at its next meeting). It certified the Environmental Impact Report, approved the vesting tentative map and approved the site development permit, 10-0-1 with Councilmember Tordillos absent. The Planning Commission had recommended approval 10-0-1 on 2026-08-26. No building permit exists for the site yet, so construction has not been authorized.
