Minutes Planning Commissic November 13, 1985 MS-85-20, Tentative Map No. 4473 Application of Dr. Hari Puri for tentative map approval to create a 5 lot subdivision on an approximately 4.1 acre site located at 3885 Foothill Road. Zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development)-Low Density Residential District. Mr. Swift presented the staff report recommending approval of this minor subdivision. He explained that minor subdivisions don't typically go to Planning Commission, but the PUD approved for the site didn't show Foothill Road improvements. The applicants are proposing to widen the roadway on their side of the street. Chairman Wilson was concerned that the map does not show there is no access allowed to Parcel No. 4 and the remainder and he is not sure whether or not staff's report discusses this issue. The staff report says there is no parking in Puri Court but the map doesn't show this either. None of the off-street parking is shown. He felt the reserve area of 30' should be dedicated to the City and increased in width. Mr. Swift responded that the tentative parcel map doesn't show everything it perhaps should have and which will have to be shown on the parcel map. Final details will be shown on the final Parcel Map. Condition No. 2 addresses access to Foothill Road and the remainder and Parcel No. 4 along Foothill Road. Most of the widening on Foothill Road will take place in the reserve area - the applicant has now agreed to dedicate the roadway vs having a reserve for it. Commissioner Innes asked if the applicant was to sell one of the lots whether or not he would have to provide additional off-street parking (other than the garage) and questioned the turnaround. Mr. Swift indicated this is provided under CC&Rs and conditions of development plan approval but that Puri Court is a hammerhead turnaround for emergency purposes. The Fire Department has no objections to this. Commissioner Innes addressed Page No. 2 of the staff report. He stated he drove the site this evening and wanted to know how much of the eastern side will be used for widening as he has real concern with this. Mr. Swift explained, indicating also that the median to the south of Puri Court would be a raised median. Mr. Okamura indicated 12' would be used for the left-hand turn lanes. Chairman Wilson wanted to know who will pay for the improvements. Mr. Okamura responded that this is the responsibility of the developer. The public hearing was opened. Richard Glenn, Darryl Alexander & Associates, 205-B Main Street, indicated they have reviewed the staff report and concur with most of the conditions. Regarding Condition No. 34, subparagraphs 1 and 3 be changed to reflect asphalt concrete vs Portland concrete for sidewalks because Foothill Road has yet to be completely designed. They concur with the staff report including the requirement of dedicating the 30' area previously just held in reserve. - 3 -
