Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Placentia public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Infill housing on vacant Oak Street lot
A builder wants to replace a long-empty lot in Atwood with a new two-story home and a small ADU. The lot predates modern sizing rules, so the project needs relaxed setbacks. It's part of a broader pattern of infill homes in the neighborhood.
Mold remediation at Aguirre and Whitten Center buildings
Two Vincor Construction change orders totaling about $44,000 cover unexpected mold found during renovations of the Aguirre Building and Whitten Center kitchen.
The Picklr indoor pickleball facility at former CVS site
A vacant anchor space in the Yorba Linda Center shopping center is being revived as a seven-court indoor pickleball club. Neighbors nearby will see more evening activity, but all play is indoors with sound-dampening panels and a 10 p.m. close for now.
Old Town parking and late-night hours
Commissioners and staff discussed scarce Old Town parking — no valet agreement exists — and how midnight hours compare with other downtown businesses that mostly close at 10 or 11. The six-month review is the safety valve if problems arise.
