The Planning Commission meeting for Ventura County was called to order on July 31, 2025, by Chair Kestley. The meeting began with a roll call, confirming the presence of Commissioners Buitzner, Cushing, and Vice Chair Sandlin, while Commissioner Ayala was noted as absent.

Following the roll call, attendees participated in the Pledge of Allegiance. Chair Kestley acknowledged the presence of an interpreter for the meeting.

The agenda proceeded to public comments, where Secretary Luce reported no comments had been received on items not included in the agenda. The Commission then moved to approve the minutes from the previous meeting held on June 26, 2025. Commissioner Boydstrom made a motion to approve the minutes, which was seconded by Commissioner Cushing. A roll call vote followed, resulting in approval from Commissioners Boydston, Cushing, and Sandlin, while Chair Kestley abstained due to absence from that meeting.

The meeting then transitioned to agenda item 6a, concerning case number PL24-nine, with the applicant being the County of Ventura. Further discussions on this case were anticipated as the meeting continued.

Overall, the meeting proceeded smoothly with no public comments and the minutes from the previous meeting being approved without contention. The next steps will involve detailed discussions on the case presented by the County of Ventura.
