Hayward Planning Commission Meeting June 25, 2026

The Hayward Planning Commission held a hybrid meeting on June 25, 2026, addressing two primary agenda items. The first was the approval of a residential development project by City Ventures, proposing 72 townhouse-style condominiums with affordable units. The commission discussed various waivers related to zoning and environmental considerations, ultimately approving the project with conditions. The second major item involved city-initiated revocation hearings for tobacco retail licenses of multiple businesses due to repeated violations of the city's tobacco retail ordinance, including sales of flavored tobacco and other prohibited products. After presentations by staff and retailers, public comments, and deliberations, the commission voted to revoke the tobacco retail licenses for several businesses, with decisions subject to a 10-day appeal period. The meeting also included procedural clarifications on enforcement, due process, and compliance efforts related to tobacco retail licensing.
