After receiving public testimony, the Commission unanimously recommended that your Council adopt the plan as the City Circulation Element and that the amendments to the Circulation Element also be adopted. On September 27 the Planning Commission received public testimony from three individuals. Mr. E. R. Peters and Mr. Bill LaPerch both expressed concerns over road alignments in the Walnut Canyon area. In particular, Mr. LaPerch voiced opposition to the proposed future alignment of the exten- sion of Moorpark Road from High Street to Walnut Canyon Road. Elaine Freeman, representing Griffin Development Corporation, expressed concern over the designation of College View Avenue in the College Park neighborhood. At the conclusion of the public hearing, the item was continued for Commission deliber- ation. On October 11 the Commission asked staff about Mr. LaPerch's concerns. Staff testified that with the discussion in the public record before the Planning Commission and with the information in the Commission packet, it was felt to be clearly identified that the Moorpark Road extension as shown on the proposed Circulation Element Map was not a fixed alignment, but rather reflected a study corridor. A precise alignment would have to be determined in the future after further study. The Planning Commission unanimously passed a resolution recommending to your Council the adoption of the plan and amendments as the Circulation Element. RECOMMENDED ACTION 1. Certify that the environmental effects relating to the adoption of the - County Circulation Element were adequately discussed in the environ- mental impact report prepared for the 1977 Amendment to the Ventura County circulation Element, and that this body has reviewed and con- sidered the information contained in this previously prepared EIR.
