Mr. Dolan explained that the question is there is issue with the payment coming at a different time. Mr. Jost replied that the Final Map would go to the City Council, and construction would follow shortly thereafter after the Map is recorded. He noted that there should not be any time lapse between the time the Map goes to the Council and when construction actually starts. Commissioner Olson indicated that the applicant's point is that securing financing is contingent on that Final Map. He noted that the bank will not sign on the line and start the funding until it sees that the Final Map is a go and construction starts. He added that he thinks it is a very reasonable request and asked staff what level of fees are involved. Mr. Jost replied that he was not sure as the Council has not made a decision on whether or not to underground utilities along the frontage of Stanley Boulevard. He noted that the frontage improvements will have significant impact on the costs. Commissioner Blank stated that he seems to recall the Commission doing similar waivers in the past. He noted that he thinks there is little risk involved if payment is made upon the issuance of a grading permit, which would be approximately a week after the Final Map is approved. He added that the funding should be in place by then. Mr. Jost noted that this would e different than what has been done for other projects similar to this. He indicated that he is not saying this is not possible but that the City has typically received all fees up front prior to going to City Council. He added that staff would also have to confer with the . Mr. Dolan stated that if the Commission wanted to amend the condition directing staff to explore this, staff would support it if staff does not find any specific pitfall with it. Chair Narum inquired if this would apply to the in-lieu park fees as well. Mr. Dolan replied that staff would explore both. Referring to Mr. Walterson's request regarding access to the side of his garage for maintenance reasons, Commissioner Pentin asked staff if Mr. Walterson's property is zoned differently or has different uses. Mr. Pavan replied that the property is zoned R-1-6,500, which is a one unit per lot. Commissioner Pentin noted that if the project is approved tonight and the neighbor is doing some sort of painting or work, it could be assumed that the work would be the same as what any other homeowner would do in their own garage, as opposed to commercial painting or uses. He asked staff if this was correct. PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, July 13, 2011 Page 9 of 21
