The council approved a large Amoruso Ranch plan and park names, but held off on the Sierra View shopping center appeal and delayed the Woodbridge Park courts item.

- The council approved General Plan and Specific Plan changes for Amoruso Ranch Phase 1 Subphases D and E, which would allow 451 single-family lots (Minutes).
- Council members approved names for three new parks and a new name for one existing park (Minutes).
- The Woodbridge Park tennis and pickleball courts item was pulled from the consent calendar and moved to the December 2, 2026 meeting (Minutes).
- The rest of the consent calendar passed, including a $1 million wastewater maintenance contract, a $2.5 million change order limit and several grant applications (Minutes).

The council was asked to deny an appeal of the Planning Commission's August 13, 2026 approval and uphold permits for the project. Instead, the council voted 5-0 on a motion “to consider referring the Sierra View Shopping Center project back to the Planning Commission for further consideration.” The minutes do not record a decision on the appeal itself.
The project also includes a Tentative Subdivision Map to rearrange parcels to match the site plan. Staff said the shopping center would generate sales and property tax revenue for the city's General Fund.

The changes move housing units between parcels in the Amoruso Ranch Specific Plan and make small adjustments to the size of large lots. That requires matching updates to land-use designations and zoning.
The council also considered an addendum to the project's environmental impact report and introduced amendments to the two development agreements.

Residents spoke both for and against some of the proposed names before the vote.
