F. PUBLIC HEARINGS: (continued) : issues raised in Mr. Nash' s (Wilsey & Ham) earlier letter on the subdivision had been addressed. Mr. Bob Stutz , Pathways Recreation and Parks Committee, pointed out that there was an existing four wheel path on the Lands of McCullough which connected to the Town-owned lands . Carol Gottlieb, 24290 Summerhill , commented that this path would give the residents a loop through the Town-owned property and it was a beautiful , rural area to enjoy. Mr. Carter, applicant, commented that this path was acceptable and that the issues of liability, maintenance, erosion, etc. were all workable matters. Denis Hollwedel , 12360 Priscilla, expressed his concern about the drainage issue and asked the Council if they were familiar with the problem and satisfied that the conditions addressed this issue. Mr. Warren Whaley, applicant' s engineer, explained that they were currently designing an interceptor on the property and the City Manager stated that all the water was being contained in the subdivision; there would be no increase of water on Priscilla. The City Attorney referred to the inclusion of parcels A and B in the subdivision. He noted that although a former city manager had issued certificates of compliance, this was not an appropriate way to create lots. The owners of these parcels could not be forced to enter into the subdivision at this time. MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Siegel , seconded by van Tamelen and passed unanimously to direct the City Attorney to prepare a condition stating that the owners of parcels A and B as shown on the tentative map and the developer shall enter into an agreement providing that the subdivider shall install all improvements required for the subdivision also on parcels A and B at developer' s expense, the form of which agreement shall be submitted to the Town for its review and approval prior to filing of the final map and upon approval of the improvement agreement, parcels A and B may be eliminated from the final map. Casey commented on the emergency access road and stated she did not believe this should be a pathway. She referred to the comments made by Mr. Jay Levinson and Mr. Iry Kaplan, both of Dawson Drive, at the 9/21/88 Council Meeting on the history of this emergency access road/path between their properties. Casey supported their statements that this path did not connect anywhere and was an intrusion on their privacy. In addition they stated that they had paid for the improvements to the emergency access road but had had no knowledge that it was also to be a pathway. -6- 10/5/88
