the 2008 JWA AFLUP by a 6-0 vote. ALUC's findings were made pursuant to AELUP Sections 1.2 and 2.1.4, and PUC Section 216749(a). These sections empower the ALUC "to assist local agencies in ensuring compatible land uses in the vicinity of existing airports to the extent that the land in the vicinity of those airports is not already devoted to incompatible uses," and "to coordinate planning at the state, regional and local levels so as to provide for the orderly development of air transportation, while at the same time protecting the public health, safety and welfare". E. On May 26, 2020, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on the entitlements for the project. Prior to the Planning Commission taking action on the item, staff provided a verbal update informing the Commission regarding ALUC's determination made on May 21, 2020, after the publication of the staff report to the Commission, that the project was inconsistent with the Airport Environs Land Use Plans [AELUP]. Following staffs presentation, and holding the public hearing, the Planning Commission voted 5:1:1 to recommend that the City Council approve the required entitlements and environmental documentation for the proposed Project. F. Pursuant to PUC Section 21676(b), the City may, after a public hearing, propose to overrule the commission by a two-thirds vote of its governing body if it makes specific findings that the proposed action is consistent with the purposes of Article 3.5 Airport Land Use Commission of the PUC. At least 45 days prior to the decision to overrule the ALUC, the local agency governing body shall provide the ALUC and the State Division of Aeronautics a copy of the proposed decision and findings. The commission and the Division of Aeronautics may provide comments to the local agency governing body within 30 days of receiving the proposed decision and findings. If the ALUC and State Division of Aeronautics comments are not available within this time limit, the local agency governing body may act without them. Should comments be received, the City Council must include the comments from the ALUC in the public record of any final decision to overrule the ALUC. This decision shall be determined at a public hearing to make the specific findings that the proposed overruling is consistent with the purposes stated in PUC Section 21670. G.
