# October 5, 2026 - Planning Commission

The City of Menlo Park Planning Commission met on October 5, 2026. The commission approved the September 28 meeting minutes. It then considered a revision to a use permit for an addition to an existing nonconforming single-family residence on Robert S. Drive, including a second-floor addition. Staff reported no updates, and no members of the public commented. The commission approved the permit 5–1, with one commissioner absent; the dissenting commissioner said they supported the project but did not believe it should require a use permit. The commission also determined the action was categorically exempt under the cited California Environmental Quality Act guideline for existing facilities.

No procurement, contract award, purchasing decision, budget allocation, or spending-related action was identified. The meeting also included routine announcements, including notice that two commissioners expected to miss the October 19 meeting due to work travel.
