Summary

The council voted unanimously to reconsider its Aug. 19 action approving a conditional use permit for a project at 3475 Torrance Boulevard after staff found a letter from the group Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility (SAFER) had been omitted from the agenda materials.

The Torrance City Council voted unanimously on Sept. 23 to reconsider its Aug. 19 decision regarding a project at 3475 Torrance Boulevard after staff discovered that a letter from the group Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility (SAFER) was inadvertently omitted from agenda materials.

City Attorney Patrick Sullivan told the council the omitted correspondence raised due‑process concerns for both SAFER and the applicant. He recommended the council approve a motion to reconsider the August action so the omitted material could be included in the record and the applicant given an opportunity to respond. The council then voted to reconsider; if the reconsideration passes at a later hearing, the council will again review the project decision.

Ending: The motion to reconsider was approved unanimously; staff will schedule the item for a future date with the omitted letter included in the record.
