4W CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - June 16, 1976 ITEMS REMOVED FRO1 CONSENT CALENnAR (Cont'd): Minutes of May 19, 1976 (Cont'd): Councilwoman Hillestad also corrected page 3 of the Minutes to reflect that the Special Report heard by Council was not the report of the Traffic and Public Safety Committee, but a report by the Chairman, Mrs. Irma Goldsmith. She also corrected the amount of tax paid by Town residents for the acquisition of open space contained in the third paragraph of the same page to $.04375 instead of $.02. Councilman Grabowski moved, seconded by Councilman Proft and unanimously carried to approve the Minutes of May 19, 1976 as corrected and amended (above). 4 b) LANDS OF NORTH, File #TM2034-75: Planning Commission recommends approval of tentative nap subject to conditions: Ccuncilman Proft requested clarification of Condition #5 of the approved check list. Town Planner Ken Pastrof presented a view graph of the subject property which indicated the easements which served neighboring property owners, and Planning Commission Chairman Hahn elucidated upon the Commission's recommendation that the road in question remain a private road. Mr. Bill Dawson, attorney representing the applicant, addressed Council �v concerning the applicant's position that, unless the financial burden of improving the access road to his property were shared by adjacent property owners, this would impose an unfair financial burden on him. Mr. Carey Jones, a neighboring property owner, stated that he had no intention of subdividing his property, but if this were the case in the future, access to that property would come off Page Mill Road and not through the access road in question onto Via Ventana. -41W In response to Council's questions, Mr. Pastrof explained that the area in question was approximately four hundred feed (400') from Via Ventana. Councilman Grabowski moved, seconded by Councilwoman Hillestad, to amend Condition #5 as recommended by deleting any reference to a "roadway" and substituting the word "driveway." Motion carried unanimously by roll call vote. City Engineer Alex Russell recommended that the applicant be required to post a bond guaranteeing that the road would be improved as required, and Mr. Crowe noted that this type of requirement was a standard procedure to insure that the required work was completed. Councilman Grabowski moved, seconded by Councilwoman Hillestad, to add a further condition to the approved check list as follows: "D. Private driveway shall be improved prior to the final inspection of the residence to be constructed on Lot #2, LANDS OF NORTH." Motion carried unanimously by roll call vote. -2-
