Adopt a resolution denying Site Plan Review No. 2005-05. <br /> <br />PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION <br /> <br />On November 28, 2005, the Planning Commission recommended that the City <br />Council deny Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2005-03, adopt a resolution <br />denying Conditional Use Permit No. 2005-28, and adopt a resolution <br />denying Variance No. 2005-62 and adopt a resolution denying Site Plan <br />Review No. 2005-05 by a vote of 6: 0 (De La Torre absent) to amend <br />Specific Development Plan No. 12 to allow long-term stay business hotels <br />with a conditional use permit and an Extended Stay America long-term stay <br />hotel at 2721 Hotel Terrace Drive (Exhibit A) . <br /> <br />After receiving public testimony, the Planning Commission made a policy <br />decision not to amend Specific Development No. 12 to allow long-term stay <br />business hotels as a land use. The Commission believed that the emphasis <br />of Hotel Terrace should not shift towards primarily serving long-term <br />stay business travelers. Units with kitchens, which cater to extended <br />stay business clients, were not seen as compatible with a long-term <br />vision for Hotel Terrace to attract full service hotels to the area that <br />cater to both business and leisure travelers. Long-term stay business <br />hotels that meet the City's design standards may be appropriate elsewhere <br />in the City, but not in Hotel Terrace, the Commission found. <br /> <br />75A-1 <br />
