Motion passed unanimously. City Clerk Radeva said WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS were received on Public Hearing Item No. 2 from the Mayer Corporation (James Vaughn, Esq. with SZR Law) — opposing the General Plan Amendment and proposed AH parcel switch, which were distributed to CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 8 of 10 NOVEMBER 21, 2023 Council, made public, published on the City's website, and included in the public record of this meeting.
