The Zoning Administrator opened the public hearing. One member of the public, Jim Mosher, offered several
comments related to the project. He specifically requested that a condition of approval be added regarding
migratory birds and that staff confirm the coastal zone district cited in the resolutions. Mr. Mosher commented on
the density of projects not meeting the maximum allowed square footage and on staff’s characterization of
surrounding land uses. Additionally, he questioned the parcel map exhibit and the allowed lot dimensions for new
parcels on Balboa Island.
Staff responded to Mr. Mosher’s questions, and agreed to add a condition of approval regarding migratory birds
and to confirm the coastal zoning category to ensure it was correctly labeled in the resolutions. The Zoning
Administrator also addressed Mr. Mosher’s concerns related to density, and thanked him for his comments.
The Zoning Administrator closed the public hearing.

resolution and agrees with all of the required conditions.
