No item will be heard before its scheduled time, but may be heard later in the meeting. City Planning Commission action on all items may be appealed to the City Council within ten calendar days for zoning and map cases. Contact the Planning Division for further information. State law restricts the City Planning Commission from taking action on an item unless it has been included on an agenda and posted at least 72 hours in advance of a meeting, or unless the matter falls within one of the narrow exceptions. Consequently, any item not listed on this agenda will normally have to be delayed until the item can be made part of a posted agenda. Additionally, significant changes to a project made subsequent to posting of the agenda and not addressed in the City Planning Commission staff report will result in continuance of that item in order to allow for adequate review by the Commission. The City of Riverside wishes to make all of its public meetings accessible to the public. Upon request, this agenda will be made available in appropriate alternative formats to persons with disabilities, as required by 42 U.S.C. §12132 of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

The Planning Division of the Community & Economic Development Department is recommending that the Planning Commission determine that this proposal is categorically exempt from further California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities), as this project will not have a significant effect on the environment.

Attachments: Report Exhibits 3-9 Presentation City of Riverside Page 2 Planning Commission Agenda - Final April 6, 2017 3 Planning Case P16-0854: A proposal by the City of Riverside to amend the Downtown Specific Plan with regard to permitted and conditionally permitted land uses within the Raincross and Justice Center Districts. Proposed changes include, but may not be limited to, Assemblies of People – Entertainment, Assemblies of People – Non-Entertainment, Retail Sales, Brewpubs and Breweries. Other changes not related to permitted and conditionally permitted land uses may be considered that are minor in context, and are necessary for clarification or to remove redundancies. No development or ground disturbance is proposed in conjunction with the proposed Specific Plan Amendment. The Community and Economic Development Department recommends the Planning Commission recommend approval of staff’s proposal to the City Council, and that the City Council determine the project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), as it can be seen with certainty there is no possibility the proposed amendment will have a significant effect on the environment.
