will be set back approximately 40-feet from the north side of property owned by Ron Lloyd. Regarding the EVA, the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan states: "If the housing development on Lot 3 (Hatsushi) precedes that planned for Lots 1 and 2, then vehicular access to Lot 3 may be temporarily provided by way of an emergency vehicle access (EVA) road connection to Montevino Drive until such time as the public street (cul-de-sac) connection to Clara Lane can be accom- plished. The southern edge of the EVA where it connects to Montevino Drive shall be located 4S-feet north of the north side property line of the parcel located at 8S4 Montevino Drive (Lloyd property). As soon as the public street connection from Lot 3 to Clara Lane can be accomplished, the EVA shall be closed to all traf- fic except for emergency vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles. The City should give strong consideration to negotiating a sale/transfer of the remainder of the triangu- lar-shaped right-of-way in which the EVA is to be partially located to the owner of the lot on 8S4 Montevino Drive on the south side and the owner of Lot 3 on the north side." Therefore, as allowed by the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan, the Hatsushis request us- ing the EVA for construction access and project access until the final street connections are completed to Clara Lane or Vineyard Avenue. However, the applicants' proposal has met with neighborhood opposition. The attached emails from Darryl and Judy Alexander, Ed and Sharon Nowak, Gopesh Kumar, Ron Cote, Ron Lloyd, and Scott Summerfield state their concerns and opposition with the EVA's use for construc- tion/domestic traffic and with its alignment; request that the EVA be restricted to only emer- gency vehicles; and require the applicants complete the connection to Vineyard Avenue or Clara lane with the first construction phase. Their opposition is based on existing traffic problems be- ing experienced on Montevino Drive including high vehicle speeds, difficulty with backing-out onto Montevino Drive, vehicular noise, construction traffic noise, etc. Opposition to the EVA's use for construction/domestic traffic extends back to the preparation of the Specific PlanlEnvironmental Impact report. Attached is a copy of the petitions signed by owners during that time stating their opposition. Staff investigated the means whereby the Hatsushis could complete Clara Lane to Road "A" with the proposed development's first construction phase. All construction and domestic traffic for Lots 10 through 13 would then use Road "A" to Clara Lane to Vineyard Avenue. The EVA would be used by emergency vehicles only. Staff, the Hatsushis and their consultants, and Mi- chael Aminian, owner of the property adjoining Lot 10 that will provide the required right-of- way to complete Clara Lane, have met to discuss right-of-way acquisition, shared construction costs, and construction timing. Mr. Aminian agreed to work with staff and the Hatsushis to dedicate right-of-way and share design/construction costs to complete Clara Lane before devel- opment of his property. (Mr. Aminian will be submitting his development plan proposal to sub- divide his property into three lots for two new homes later this year.) Even if Clara Lane were to be completed with this development's first construction phase, construction traffic for mass Item 6.b., PUD-99-14 Page 11 0124 April 26, 2006
