BACKGROUND On March 3, 2009, the City Council approved a residential development with 110 single- family homes known as the Ironwood Active Adult Community or Village at Ironwood. As a condition of approval, the developer, Ponderosa Homes was required to construct a public trail adjacent to the development on property located between the southern boundary of Lake I and the northern boundary of the Village at Ironwood. Portions of the public trail are located within the Mohr Avenue right of way owned by the City. Other portions of the public trail are located on property owned by Zone 7, thus, the City needs a License Agreement from Zone 7 to place the trail on Zone 7 property in exchange for the City agreeing to maintain the trail. Last July, the Council approved a First Amendment to the License Agreement to include this public trail. Since that time, City staff has received requests from a few property owners within the Village at Ironwood to move the trail north and farther away from their properties. This Second Amendment to the License Agreement accomplishes this by moving portions of the trail north and closer to Lake I. Also in July of 2013, the Council approved a License Agreement related to the storm drain system discussed above. Zone 7 never executed that agreement and staff from the City and Zone 7 have worked together to prepare a new agreement (Maintenance Agreement) that will set forth the obligations of both parties with regard to maintenance. The City will be responsible for routine preventative maintenance of the system while Zone 7 will be responsible for minor and major repairs. DISCUSSION Ponderosa Homes has completed grading work for the trail and will complete the remaining work including fencing, gates, landscaping etc. before final acceptance of the subdivisions within "The Village at Ironwood." Once completed, residents of the Ironwood Active Adult Community will have trail access to and from Mohr Avenue. The trail will be open to the public but the trail will "dead end" at the east end of the Village at Ironwood until such time as it may be extended east as part of the East Pleasanton Specific Plan. The Second Amendment to License Agreement allows the trail to be constructed on Zone 7 property. The Maintenance Agreement sets forth the respective obligations of Zone 7 and the City with regard to the storm drain system installed as part of Ponderosa Homes' project.
