in Parcel "c" and in the lower portion of Parcel "A" for Lots 10 through 13. Parcels "B" and "c" will be owned and maintained by the development's homeowners asso- ciation. V. DISCUSSION Emergency Vehicle Access to Montevino Drive Staff will augment its analysis in the attached Planning Commission staff with the following ad- ditional information. The major issue expressed by Montevino Drive neighbors is the EVA connection between Lots 10 through 13 and Montevino Drive and its use by construction/do- mestic traffic. Pursuant to the Specific Plan, the EVA's use by Hatsushi construction/domestic traffic is allowed until Clara Lane is connected to the Hatsushi development. As stated at the Planning Commission hearing, the neighborhood opposition is based on the existing traffic problems on Montevino Drive including high vehicle speeds, difficulty with backing-out onto Montevino Drive, vehicular noise, construction traffic noise, etc. As previously stated, staff, the Hatsushis and their consultants, and Michael 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 has agreed to work with staff and the Hatsushis to dedicate right-of-way and share design/construction costs to complete Clara Lane before development of his property. These discussions continue. Staff notes that Mr. Aminian has submitted PUD-S6, the develop- ment plan proposal to subdivide his property into three lots. Hence, staff believes that consen- sus on the remaining details to complete Clara Lane before development of the Aminian prop- erty will be achieved, with the goal of constructing Clara Lane in conjunction with or close to the Hatsushi's first construction phase. Ralph and Amy Hughes stated at the Planning Commission hearing that Lot 10 is their lot and will be the first lot constructed after the subdivision improvements are completed. Lots 11 through 12 will be reserved for Mr. Hatsushi's grandchildren who are still in college or medical school. For this reason, staff believes that their development will occur after Clara Lane is com- pleted. Therefore, the construction traffic impacting Montevino Drive is anticipated to be lim- ited to site grading and utilities, public street construction, and the construction of the house on Lot 10. After Clara lane is extended to the Hatsushi development, the EVA will remain as an EVA only, permanently, per the Specific Plan. Tree Removal and Mitigation There are 43 existing trees on the Hatsushi property including California pepper, acacia, willow, valley oak, blue gum, and orchard trees including California black walnut trees. A total of 19 heritage size trees will be removed with the proposed development. As conditioned, the project developer will install four, 24-inch box-size specimen trees for each heritage-size tree to be re- SR 06:159 Page 5 of8
