Deerfield Mixed-Use Development Project approval path

Monterey Park

Summary

The applicant asked the council to let the project skip another Planning Commission stop and go straight to the council; instead the council kept the commission in the loop and set the council hearing for Nov. 18. The applicant wants to avoid reopening issues already resolved in two-plus years of staff review.
