The Orange JCP Project Owner, LLC, represented by Peter Vanek, (Appellant) is appealing the Planning Commission's denial of Appeal No. 0565-24 affirming the City's determination that the application for the proposed project is incomplete.

With the accessory dwelling units, the project total is 209 units. The proposed project is located at 2200 N Tustin Street.
