However, said CVC Section does require that a public hearing be held on the matter prior to taking action, and that the property owner be notified of said hearing at least ten (10) days prior to said hearing. A public hearing for this purpose has been scheduled for this date, and the owner(s) of the properties within which this street segment is located [Tracts 4973, 4975, 4976, 4977 and 4980 -- see Exhibit 1] was provided ten (10) day advance notice of this public hearing.
