City of Daly City Planning Commission Regular Meeting - 7/7/26

The City of Daly City Planning Commission held a regular meeting on July 7, 2026, where key procurement-related discussions focused on zoning ordinance amendments and development projects within the city. The commission reviewed a proposed zone change to amend the inclusionary zoning law, allowing the city to require that a certain percentage of affordable housing residents live or work in Daly City. This resident preference ordinance was supported by a disparate impact analysis and recommended for city council approval. Additionally, the commission considered use permits and design reviews for new restaurant developments with drive-thru facilities at the Ceremony Shopping Center, including detailed site plans, traffic and pedestrian safety studies, and landscaping plans. The projects aim to enhance economic activity and community amenities, with staff recommending approval subject to conditions. The commission voted to recommend these projects to the city council. The meeting also included updates on pedestrian improvements in the shopping center area to support safe access and connectivity.
