Mr. Dolan explained that the decision predates him by many years but did say that the City Council ultimately disagreed with the Commission and reversed the vote. Vice Mayor Brown stated that decisions like that are one reason the public put PP in place. Mr. Fialho explained that the project has a Tentative Map and Development Agreements in place, all of which were approved prior to Measure PP and are binding. With regards to conformance with the General Plan, the development is consistent with the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan and therefore inherently consistent with the General Plan. The record of discussion regarding PP clearly reflects that lots within the plan area with existing tentative maps or development agreements would be exempt. In the case of Lund Ranch, Measure PP is clearly applicable and it will ultimately be up to the Council to interpret its application when that project comes forward. Councilmember Narum asked what protections are there to ensure the ultimate payment of development fees. Mr. Fialho explained that the developer is required to deposit a percentage of the fees into an escrow account. As part of the inspection process prior to final occupancy, the project will have to adhere to its conditions of approval and make payment to the city in exchange for release of the Certificate of Occupancy. MOTION: It was m/s by Narum /Olson to approve the Final Map and improvement plans for Tract 7660, Silver Oaks Estates (1944 Three Oaks Drive); approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Kenneth R. Chrisman and Pamela L. Chrisman for Final Map without an improvement agreement or bonds, and approve deferral of payment of City development impact fees and Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan fees until final inspection of new homes, or connecion of existng home to City Water; authorize deferral of subdivision bonds, inspection fess, and subdivision improvement agreement subject to final map being in escrow and only released when such bonds and fees are collected; accept all parcels of land and easements offered for dedication on the Final Map, and authorize the City Manager to execute all related documents when approved as to form by the City Attorney.
