maintenance of the trail along the Arroyo del Valle. Staff has included a condition that the applicant will be required to establish a Homeowners Association. Staff notes that Ponderosa has submitted a minor subdivision map that proposes to subdivide Lot 13 in Option 1, the existing home that faces Stanley Boulevard, from the 13-unit development. Should the Council decide to have the applicant retain the existing house, Ponderosa would pursue the minor subdivision application and, if approved, Lot 13 would not be a part of the established homeowners association. To ensure that the landscaping and other site improvements for Lot 13 are maintained, a condition of approval has been added that requires the applicant and/or responsible party to enter into a Landscape Maintenance Agreement with the City for Lot 13, should the minor subdivision application be approved. Staff notes that a minor subdivision application is processed at staff level with the City Council being notified on the Zoning Administrator Action Report. Existing Trees Option 1 Ponderosa is proposing to remove 29 of the 39 trees on-site, 18 of which are heritage- sized trees (as defined by the Municipal Code) to accommodate the proposed development. Of the 18 heritage-sized trees, 12 have a rating of three, four or five out of five. Option 2 In addition to the 29 trees noted in Option 1, Ponderosa is proposing to remove the four trees, two of which are heritage sized trees, which were slated for retention with the existing house to accommodate the development of the new single-family homes. The tree report is attached as Exhibit E in Attachment 6 for the Council's consideration. Please refer to Figure 4 below for the location of the trees to be removed. Those trees shown on Lot 13 in Figure 4, shown on page 11, will be removed should Option 2 be approved. Please refer to page 11 for Figure 4 Page 10 of 17
