11.2 Request for approval of a negative declaration, conditional exception and tentative map for a proposed two lot subdivision of 2.75 acres, Lands of Reed, 13940 La Paloma Road The City Manager commented on the drainage issue in the LaPaloma area. He noted that the neighbors in the area had been contacted and a drainage study had been completed. However, the issue of easements was of concern to the neighbors and they had not been in support of the recommended improvements in the report. Concerning this subdivision, the City Manager referred to the addendum to the negative declaration which stated in part: '...the project contribution (to the drainage basin) would be insignificant and would not impact the flood levels on affected properties...' Mrs. Reed, applicant, stated that she wanted Bob Owen, who was developing a neighboring property, to share in the cost of implementing the drainage conditions for her subdivision in front of the Tsui property at 13928 LaPaloma. She further requested that the height be reduced from 22 1/2' to 22' and the setback be increased from 55' to 65'. Mrs. Reed further commented that she did not want to have to underground utilities as others in the neighborhood had not been required to underground. She wanted to see native plants and shrubs used along the driveway in the landscaping plan and she strongly supported the road remaining private. Mrs. Anita Tsui, 13928 LaPaloma, supported the increase in setback from 55to 65on LaPaloma. The City Manager noted that he had discussed the drainage issue with Bob Owen and Mr. Owen had agreed to contribute to the drainage costs on a pro rata share based on what the respective projects would add to the runoff. PASSED BY CONSENSUS: To amend condition #18 to reflect a 22' height limit and a 65' setback. MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Hubbard, seconded by Dauber and passed unanimously to approve the negative declaration with addendum, the conditional exception and the tentative map for a proposed two lot subdivision of 2.75 acres, Lands of Reed, 13940 La Paloma Road, subject to the conditions of approval as recommended by the Planning Commission and amended by Council. 11.3 Consideration of Notice of Code Violation at 25391 O'Keefe Lane, Lands of Sayar The Planning Director referred to his report dated 1/17/96 and on file at Town Hall in which he outlined the history of code violations on the Sayar property. fie L January 17, 1996 ir+ Regular City Council Meeting
