Name Date Note
VJB Hearing on just about everything again 06/02/2022 Planning Commission hearing moved from 5/26/22 to June 2, for those keeping close track of the saga of Sonoma County Planning Department's ongoing whack-a-mole game with clan Belmonti's Kenwood enterprises, currently guised as "PLP05-0009--Second Revised Subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration", as updated from "Revised Subsequent Mitigated Declaration" (RSMND) published on July 27, 2020, seems to reflect some hope on both Permit Sonoma's and Belmonti's parts that eventually everyone will just forget about it and it will all go away. As proposed, the current iteration would pretty much fold up most of the county's long standing objections to what is actually happening at the wine tasting, restaurant, pizzeria, deli, cum lounge vis a vis operating hours, capacity, parking and a turn lane now 12 years over overdue.
