Geoff,
As I read it, only the Santee City Council will vote on it after the public comment period ends 6/13/09. Prior to that, the public may make written comment to the Environmental Impact Report that was completed in May.

acarlisle@padre.org I'll post the answer here (probably Monday) so those of us interested can e-mail or write to Santee City Council.
