It was moved by Ms. Mohr, seconded by Ms. Dennis, to approve the report and authorize staff to continue their discussions. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers - Dennis, Michelotti, Mohr, Pico, and Mayor Tarver NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None 7. PUBLIC HEARINGS Item 7a PUD-94-04, New Cities Development Group Application for development plan approval to construct. 43 single-family homes on a 7.6+ acre site generally located at the norlhwest corner of the St. John Street/Pleasanton Avenue intersection. Also consider a negative declaration prepared for the project. (SR 95:45) Brian Swift presented the staff report. Mr. Pico asked for clarification of the last paragraph of the staff report. Mr. Swift explained that this is the stage (zoning designation and development plan approval) where the Council can, through its zoning regulations, insure that the project that is approved meets all of the requirements of the City for this site. Council does not have to approve the application simply because it meets the regulations for the property. This is the time when Council has the most discretion to decide what kind of project it desires for this site. Mr. Pico asked if that discretion is different than what the Planning Commission had? Mr. Swift indicated the Planning Commission had the same discretion. Ms. Dennis referred to the timing for the development of the park and the trail and asked if it were possible to condition the approval of the final map such that it does not go forward without assurance the park and trail will be developed. Mr. Swift believed the City Attorney should respond to the question of whether the City Council can attach a condition that requires approval of another agency (Fish and Game). The question will come up whether the condition itself is capable of being performed. 02/07/95 -11-
