RPV Seeks Four Planning Commissioners

The city of Rancho Palos Verdes has extended its recruitment period to fill four seats on the RPV Planning Commission. Prospective commissioners now have until Feb. 6 to submit their applications.

"The seven-member planning commission makes decisions on specific private land-use planning applications, such as subdivision maps, variances and conditional use permits; reviews environmental assessments, such as environmental impact reports and negative declarations; makes decisions on view restoration permits; and considers appeals of staff decisions on land-use planning applications," according to an email from the city.

The commission meets at 7 p.m. on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month, and commissioners serve four-year terms. Once these commissioners are appointed, they will remain in office through December 2018. 

Residents who wish to become planning commissioners can download an application online or request one from the RPV City Clerk's Office at city hall, located at 30940 Hawthorne Blvd. 

Completed applications should be submitted to the city clerk's office by 5:30 p.m. Feb. 6, 2014. Interviews with the RPV City Council will take place in February.
