ABOUT THE PLANNING COMMISSION:

The Planning Commission is composed of seven commissioners serving staggered two-year terms.

Commissioners are appointed by the City Council and receive a stipend of $80 per month. The Planning

Commission participates in the administration of the planning laws and policies of the City. It is responsible for

recommending to the City Council ordinances and resolutions necessary to implement the General Plan and

adopted development policy. The Commission also conducts necessary public hearings to administer the

planning laws and policies of the City and acts upon applications for zoning amendments, conditional use

permits, variances, subdivisions, and other related functions.

COMMISSION REQUIREMENTS, SCHEDULE, AND ATTENDANCE:

The Planning Commission meets on the 1st and 3

Tuesday of the month at 6 p.m. in the Vacaville City

Council Chamber. On occasion, the commission chair may call special meetings if necessary. Commissioners

are expected to be fully prepared to discuss and take action on agenda items. In addition to attending

meetings, commissioners spend a considerable amount of time preparing for meetings by reviewing the

agenda packet and, when applicable, making site visits, meeting with constituents, or attending other

meetings as representatives of the Planning Commission. Prospective applicants should seriously consider the

time commitment of serving on a commission and evaluate their ability to meet that commitment. It is

important that all commission members attend and actively participate in commission meetings as well as the

programs for which their commission is responsible. Individuals with heavy business and/or personal

commitments may find those commitments preclude effective service on a commission.

Appointment of members will be made by the City Council at an open City Council meeting. Upon

appointment, designated members will be required to file a Conflict of Interest disclosure statement, complete

2 hours of certified Ethics Training in accordance with AB 1234 and 2 hours of certified Anti-Harassment

Training in accordance with AB 1661.

I certify that I am aware of the obligations and responsibilities of appointment to the Planning Commission and

am willing and able to fulfill these commitments should I be appointed:
