Tract 5037, Dan Gamache Application o Dan Gamache for subdivision of approximately 9.3 acres into 13 parcels with an average size of 28,350 sq. ft., located on the east side of Amber Lane approximately 415 feet south of Mockingbird Lane. The property is zoned R-1-20,000 (Single-Family Residential) District. Mr. Harris explained the staff report. The public hearing was opened. Larry Bartelson, MacKay and Somps, indicated that his client has no problems with the conditions imposed in the staff report nor as amended by staff. He did ask for clarification of condition No. 22 regarding street lighting and asked that they be allowed to use a carriage-type street lighting system. He indicated that the Pestana project had approval for this. Mr. Warnick indicated that the City Council strongly feels because of maintenance that these type of standards should not be approved in the future. Mr. Bartelson indicated that since this is the case they won't pursue the matter. Commissioner Jamieson asked if there are any type of metal poles which simulate wood. Mr. Bartelson said he hasn't seen any. Dennis Glafkidis, 737 Happy Valley Road, President of the Alisal Improvement Club, addressed this proposal. He said that while he didn't have any problem with the proposal he would express some of the desires of those persons living in the area in his homeowners association. He said one person desires to see a barrier between the Gamache development and their rural area. The Commissioners felt that this would be detrimental to the area and not enhancing. Mr. Glafkidis then addressed surface runoff and access in the Amber Lane area. Staff addressed these matters. Commissioner Jamieson asked about access with regard to Hamilton Way. Larry Bartelson reviewed this and said they put islands on their plans and are doing everything to discourage through traffic going through the Happy Valley area. He indicated that Amber Lane is being modif ied in such a way at the intersection to discourage any through traffic north of Hamilton on Amber. He said that as far as drainage is cncerned that would only be increased very mini- mally. He indicated that once streets are paved and roofs installed on houses there would be more drainage but it will be a negligible amount. Regarding fences he said the westerly property line is about 60'± down the hill and the neighbors to the south have to be about three blocks away. He further indicated that at the time of annexation Mrs. Dohner had concerns with trash. He assured the Planning Conunission that Mr. Gamache intends to clean up the littered area. The public Bearing was closed. -15- ._ .. _. .._.. ___._.._._..._. .__._.._. _.. _.... ....._.. _. .... _ ...~....__._... ~.... .,..... ~ _..._.._.... .__.. _.. ...... «._ .. .. .. ... _... _.~.. .__...
