2026-02-25 Planning Commission Meeting

The Baldwin Park Planning Commission held a regular meeting on February 25, 2026. The meeting included public comments opposing a proposed residential development of 105 condo units on a 2.12-acre property, with community members advocating instead for the land to be preserved as a park to benefit local children and elderly residents. The commission then considered a conditional use permit (CP26-01) to allow an on-sale beer and wine license (Type 41) for a new seafood boil restaurant, Grab a Crab, located in the Baldwin Park Town Center. After staff presentation and applicant remarks addressing concerns such as parking and alcohol service management, the commission voted unanimously to approve the permit. No other procurement or contract awards were discussed, but the meeting included a brief mention of a budget allocation to send planning commissioners to a professional event in Anaheim.
