The continuance was to allow County Counsel time to review a legal issue and to allow the Community Development Department time to review a screening issue. I Legal Issue The Planning Commission asked County Counsel to provide information regarding a lis pendens i that has been filed by the Lodi Muslim Mosque against the Farooquia Islamic Center. County Counsel sent a memo to the Planning Commission explaining lis pendans and indicating that"the filing of the lis-pendens should not weigh for or against the Planning Commission's decision." Screening Issue The Planning Commission asked the Community Development Department to determine if a wall should be required along the southern property line of the project site. Development Title Section 9-1020.5(e), Requirements for Parking Areas, states: Unless otherwise specified, parking areas abutting a residential zone, an area shown on the General Plan for residential use, or an existing residential use, shall be screened with a solid masonry wall six(6)to seven (7)feet in height along the abutting property line, and a five (5)foot planting strip shall be installed adjacent to the wail and the parking area. The parking area along the south property line abuts a one-acre lot developed with a residence and an approximately 8-acre lot also developed with a residence. Both residences appear to be within 100 feet of the parking lot. The Community Development Department recommends that the following condition be added to the Conditions of Approval: 1.1. SCREENING: The parking area shall be screened from the property to the south by a solid masonry wall six (6) to seven (7) feet in height. (Development Title Section 1020.5[e]) The applicant concurs with this recommendation. Additional Letter A letter dated May 5, 2005 from Howard Seligman is attached.
