Staff has crafted a condition providing the mechanism to attain the acceptance of the offer of dedication by Zone 7. If, for some reason, the offer of dedication is not accepted, the homeowners association for the Rosalyn Lane project will be responsible for both ownership and maintenance. In order to have adequate reserve funds for this purpose, the City requested Engeo, Inc. to prepare an estimate of costs for catastrophic failure and ongoing maintenance, which are shown in Attachment 8. The costs for a catastrophic event consider a complete embankment failure along with complete bank reconstruction. Maintenance costs would be those for brush clearing, miscellaneous pruning, and annual inspection verifying slope stability. A related issue is the width of Street B, the creek-side street, which may need to be narrowed to meet Zone 7's slope requirement. The City has determined that since Street B will not have significant use, is not a collector, is not connected yet to any other circulation pattern, and will primarily function for some time as a maintenance road, the width could be reduced to no less than 20 feet, if necessary, keeping the lot sizes, floor plans, and site design as submitted. The public trail would likely undergo some design revisions as well to accommodate Zone 7's 2Yz:lline of projection. Staff recommends the plans be amended to reflect the 2Yz: I line of projection resulting in a reduction of the road and trail widths and maintaining the lot sizes, patterns, and house plans per the plan submittal. A condition has been provided to respond to the changes. PUBLIC COMMENT Notice of the application was sent to all property owners and tenants living within 1,000 feet of the subject property as well as all property owners and residents of the Nolan Farms development. In addition, the City advertised the notice in the newspaper and posted the document in front of200 Old Bernal Avenue. Please refer to the preceding section of the staff report for a full discussion of public comment. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT A Draft Negative Declaration was prepared in. conjunction with the proposed Planned Unit Development plan and submitted to the State Clearinghouse. Based on the Initial Study and Negative Declaration, the project would not have a significant effect on the environment. The proposed project plans have been revised to avoid significant effects or mitigated by design to a point where the effects are insignificant, and there is no substantial evidence that the project, as revised, may have a significant effect. No comments have been received from any of the responsible agencies. SR 06:013 Page 13 of 17
