LA JOLLA — The La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) spent more than an hour and a half discussing possible changes to the CPA’s appeal process at its regular monthly meeting on Dec. 2. The issue stemmed from the case in which The Bishop’s School, after applying for approval for renovations to its library, was denied on the grounds that the plans would exceed height requirements for buildings in La Jolla. The school brought the project to the City Council and the city’s Planning Commission, which approved the project Oct. 20, after which the LJCPA had 10 days to appeal the decision. The next LJCPA meeting, however, fell Nov. 2 — just a day before the appeal period expired. The board discussed various scenarios that would make it easier for the trustees to appeal a decision when the appeal cycle falls outside of a regular LJCPA meeting. Representatives of The Bishop’s School will make an appeal to the Planning Commission on Dec. 16 at 9 a.m., during which they will apply for a height variance on the library of 2 feet,1 inch, bringing the height of the building from 30 feet to 32 feet, 1 inch. The appeal process will be held in City Council Chambers, 12th floor, 202 C St. in downtown San Diego.
