The original motion made would have
approved the conforming zone change and denied all other aspects of this item.

Four TAB members suggested to staff the
building should be “closed, padlocked or red-tagged” immediately until safety,
fire, building code, signage, zoning and related matters are either brought

without permits, inspections or approvals and would require additional
construction-related work. Members requested staff seek strong CCPRO
involvement.
