Confirm companion zoning request for Potranco Road mixed use center change

Why now: The Planning Commission voted 6-0 on 2026-09-23 to recommend changing 8000, 8030 and 8100 Potranco Road and 1 Sony Place from Specialized Center to Mixed Use Center, with associated zoning Z-2026-10700150 still listed separately.

What to do: Pull the associated zoning case file and check whether the requested zoning matches the new Mixed Use Center designation on the 37.327 acres. The plan amendment alone does not set what can be built, so uses and density depend on that zoning outcome.

Act before: After the next material record update

Ask why commissioner recusal occurred on Potranco Road land use change

Why now: Minutes for Item 15 on 2026-09-23 show a 6-0 consent agenda vote with Bustamante recused (out of meeting 2:03-2:10 PM) and listed as not voting, for case PA-2026-11600059.

What to do: Request the recusal disclosure and consent agenda minutes to learn why Commissioner Bustamante left the room for part of the meeting and whether the recusal related to this item. Without it, the public cannot tell if the 6-0 vote reflects a conflict.

Act before: After the requested records are produced
