Alright, mics are on.

Good evening, everyone.

Welcome to today's uh Planning Commission meeting for the City of Belmont.

Um I'll go through the participation rules first.

Um can uh watch or per participate in this meeting by um one watching it on Comcast uh cable channel twenty seven.

Um it is streamed live via the city's website at Belmont.gov and of course the meeting is available over Zoom, and the instructions for accessing uh that Zoom account are uh in the agenda.

Um there are various ways to submit public comment.

One uh uh you can comment in chambers.

I would ask that you complete a speaker slip, return it to the clerk, and come up to the lectern, you'll have three minutes to comment.

And uh secondly, uh you can comment um over Zoom by following the instructions that are set out in the agenda.

And um lastly, uh we have written comments that um are submitted up till five o'clock this evening.

Uh those written comments um are um circulated uh amongst the audience here and will be part of the record.

Any comments that are received uh via email at the C dev at Belmont.gov website after five o'clock will not be read into the record but will uh be made part of the record uh following tonight's meeting.

Great.

With those instructions in mind, let's uh take a roll call, please.

Okay, roll call.

Uh Commissioner Adam Kevich here.

Kramer?

Chair Coolidge.

Present.

Uh Twig?

Yeah.

Jadala here.

And absent tonight is Commissioner Majeski.

Great.

Let's now turn to item two, which is the Pledge of Allegiance.

Please stand and flag is here.

Hi.

Which stands one nation, under God, invisible with liberty and justice for all.

I thank you.

Um item three is our community forum.

Uh this portion of the meeting is reserved for persons wishing to comment uh on any matter, excuse me, not on tonight's agenda that is within the purview of um the commission.

Um, and so if anyone has uh any public comment for item three.

Um, no speaker slips in house or raised hands on Zoom for this item.

Great.

Seeing no comment, we'll move on to item four, which is uh commissioner announcements and agenda amendments.

Firstly, I'll see if my colleagues have any announcements.

We do.

Uh yeah, I just had one.

I got a question from a resident about how to find uh minutes, uh agendas, agenda packets, and then minutes from past meetings.

Um we realize that if you go to the uh planning commission page specifically at the bottom, that is not working.

But I want to just reassure everybody that if you go into the main uh meetings agendas and minutes page, it has all of them.

Planning commission, parks and rec, city council, and so I just want to say that yes, those those are available.

Apologies that the planning commission page itself specifically is not the place to look.

So I just wanted to make that clear for the public.

Thank you.

And that's at Belmont.gov slash departments slash meetings.

You can find it under our city meetings and agendas.

Yeah, thank you.

Thank you.

It's helpful.

Anyone else?

Great.

Any agenda amendments from staff?

Uh staff has none, Chair Coolidge.

Wonderful.

Thank you.

CRISP, moving along.

Uh, item five, uh, this is our consent calendar.
