This is the full meeting of the Marin County Planning commissioners decided that Marinwood-Lucas Valley should have 78% of alll affordable housing for unincorporated Marin.  Only one property was removed from the housing element in Inverness, the community where Planning Chairperson Wade B. Holland makes his home.

After months of excellent comments from the public questions regarding the impacts on schools, tax funding, land use, environmental controls,  in the end the commissioners ignored all of the public comments and recommend the Housing Element approval by the Board of Supervisors.

Please see below for the vote tally on all the resolutions that the Planning Commission voted on regarding the Marin County Housing Element (July 8.2013):

Remove the Chevron Site from the Available Land Inventory: 2 Aye; 4 Nay
Remove the Armstrong Site from the Available Land Inventory: 2 Aye; 4 Nay
Remove Grady Ranch from the Available Land Inventory: Nays prevailed
Recommend certification of the Supplemental Environmental Impact Report: 3 Aye; 2 Nay; 1 Abstain
Recommend approval of the Housing Element: 6 Aye
Approve the Countywide Plan Amendments: 5 Aye; 1 Nay (Dickenson)
Approve the Development Code Amendments: 6 Aye
