I. ADDENDUM SUMMARY
File no. UP 19-20 went before the Planning Commission on June 24, 2021. The question of the name of the company was brought up, and the hearing was continued to July 8, 2021 to give staff an opportunity to confirm the corporate name. The official Incorporated name for the applicant is LDM Operations Inc.

UP 19-16, located at 22700 Morgan Valley Road, Lower Lake, rather than UP 19-20, however this was never stated in the email received by staff who assumed it pertained to UP 19-20, the 7295 Adobe Creek Road (Kelseyville) property.
Because there is no longer an applicant for file no. UP 19-20, the application must be denied.
