Glendale Planning Commission elects Commissioner Fuentes as chair, confirms pro tem

The Glendale Planning Commission elected Commissioner Fuentes as its new chair and confirmed Commissioner Minassian as chair pro tem during a brief meeting on Feb. 4, 2026. The commission also approved the minutes of its Dec. 17, 2025 meeting.

Commission business opened with roll call and a report that the meeting agenda had been posted Jan. 28, 2026. Speaker 1 nominated Commissioner Fuentes to serve as chair; the nomination was seconded and carried after a roll-call vote. The commission then nominated and confirmed Commissioner Minassian to serve as chair pro tem.

The roll-call attendance earlier in the meeting showed Commissioner Fuentes, Commissioner Malekian and Commissioner Manasian present and Commissioner Nazarian recorded as absent. The transcript records verbal confirmations and congratulations after the votes but does not show a detailed written motion text for the leadership nominations beyond the spoken nominations and roll-call confirmation.

The commission also moved to approve minutes from the Dec. 17 planning commission meeting; the motion was seconded and the vote was recorded in the meeting as 'Yes.'

No public oral communications were received during the meeting and no substantive policy items were decided; members instead handled leadership elections and routine procedural business. The commission removed a planned zoning code amendment on ADUs from this agenda and said it will be re-noticed for a later meeting.
