r- Mr. Swift presented the staff report recommending approval of Case Tentative Tract Map 5721 subject to the conditions of the staff report. In response to Commissioner McGuirk's question, Mr. Swift replied that until the City decides to accept the easement property, it remains private property. When the City accepts the easement, they would then construct a trail and maintain it along with the easement. They would also indemnify and hold harmless the owners' associati from public use of the trail. Chairman Hovingh noted that they are seeing a number of tentative ap extensions. He did not want to deal with it tonight without a staff report, but wondered hether staff would allow quid pro quos and modify the PUD conditions in exchange fo doing the tentative map. Mr. Beougher replied that as he read the statutes, he saw no way th t could be done. It is not a discretionary permission. The statute simply says an extensio can be granted. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS OPENED. Scott D. Shaull, 2001 Winword Way, San Mateo, represented West rook Housing Group. As stated in their previous appearances, they have no objection to y of the conditions. Mr. Shaull thought that the major items that were of concern in D recreation facility, streets, concrete, and landscaping of retention b ins. The recreation center has been completed and is being used by the association at th s point in time. There are some other items that have not been taken care of yet, but the a plicant is attempting to do so. He thought that staff was pleased with their progress at this int. Chairman Hovingh referred to Condition 3 in regard to grading pe its and/or building permits and that they shall not be issued until all improvements in T cts 5721 and 5825 are ~ completed. He questioned Mr. Shaull as to the status of this. Larry Snyder, 1375 Bordeaux Street, represented the Kottinger Ran h Home Association as president. He said back in December of 1991 they were concerned about Conditions 5 and 6. When the people in the neighborhood bought their homes they d d not know there would be trails going into the hills; they were also concerned about the sta ing area, which they perceived would be a parking area for drug users, four-wheeling, v dalism, etc. Since that time the association has met with Mr. Swift and Mr. Rasmussen an has had further follow- up discussions. It appears now that the staging area has been remo ed which they are happy about. In regard to the trails, they are willing to work with the Ci on that and foresee no problems at this point. In response to Mr. Snyder's question, Mr. Swift replied that in this particular case 300 ft. is all that is needed for a trail easement. Staff does not want the trail 0 go anywhere near the houses or Kottinger Ranch subdivision any more than the homeown rs do. -- Plannm, COmmi..iOR Minute8 June 10, 1992 Page 13
