Tentative Tract 4166, Frank Auf der Maur Application of Frank Auf der Maur for approval of a Tentative Map which would subdivide a 67-acre site located on the south side of Stanley Boulevard immediately easterly of the existing A & R Service Center Development. The subdivision would create 7 commercial service lots of about one-half acre in size along a southerly extension of California Avenue and leave a 61-acre remainder lot. The lot is zoned C-S (Commercial Service) District. A negative declaration of environmental impact accompanies the map. Mr. Harris explained the staff report and the conditions shown. He also stated that Condition #6 of the staff report and the first sentence of #10 of the negative declaration be modified to remove "existing water system is inadequate to serve the project" as it has been determined by the City there is sufficient water. Commissioner Wilson expressed concern about the intersection to be effected by this proposal. Alan Campbell addressed this same subject with relationship to County long-range planning uncertainty, who should incur the cost, etc. The Public Hearing was opened. George Allen, William Black Company, representing the applicant spoke concerning item #10 of the staff report and stated there is a requirement of the County for Mr. Auf der Maur to have a deacceleration lane as well as an acceleration lane put in. Mr. Auf der Maur stated the only thing holding this up now is P.G.&E. as he is ready to proceed. After further discussion of the Planning Commission, staff and the applicant, the Planning Commission decided to continue this item until such time as more definite detailed information was available concerning signalling, streets and input from the County as to what they propose. Permission was given to Mr. Auf der Maur to proceed with the storm drain along the street alignment by the Planning Commission and the staff had no objection to this.
