The Public Hearing Notice states that the item will be heard by Planning Commission as a Public Hearing item but the Agenda for the August 20,2020 Special Hearing does not clearly state that Item#2 is a Public Hearing item. The Staff Report includes a Referrals and Responses table on Page 3 and 4. The City of Lathrop is listed under Local Agencies on Page 4 and does not include the City's July 23, 2020 response to the revised Referral and Notice of Intent to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration,dated July 2,2020. The City of Lathrop's Comment Letter,dated July 23, 2020 is included in Attachment B,Response Letters on Page 76 and 77. The City of Lathrop requests that the Planning Commission be made aware of the error in the Staff Report. The Planning Commission Staff Report states that the CDD received letters of opposition from multiple sources,including the City of Lathrop. The Staff Report further states that "the Initial Study was revised to correct the inconsistent information and was recirculated for review to provide additional time for agencies and the public w comment." The Initial Study 1 Mitigated Negative Declaration being presented to Planning Commission continues to have the same inconsistencies and lack of information identified in the City's July 23,2020 letter. As stated in the City's July 23,2020 letter,the River Islands Master Planned Community is within the City limits of Lathrop, approximately one (l) mile from the project site down-wind to the east and south-east.
