facility to take care of kids that are not projected into the head count. The schools need reduced class sizes but he did not want to see pottables on all the other school sites. There were other alternatives that could have been evaluated that were not. This site would have yielded much more for the School District had a General Plan amendment been processed ahead of time and the discussion of growth management approval resolved at that time. It was moved by Ms. Mohr, and seconded by Ms. Michelotti, that Resolution No. 95-123, be adopted, approving the amendment to the General Plan changing the designation of the Del Prado site from Community Facilities - Schools to PUD - Medium Density Residential. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers Dennis, Michelotti, and Mohr NOES: Councilmember Pico and Mayor Tarver ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Ms. Michelotti commented that she had received some letters from the community in favor of the development. She did meet with the developer and Kathy Rubin. Ms. Rubin stated she is in favor of having Del Prado stay a school site. Mayor Tarver stated he received ten calls in support of the project and four in opposition to the project. Mr. Pico clarified that in respect to the land swap issues and the park, he would resist the land swap. He felt that all alternatives were not explored, including the ability to increase the size of the park. Mr. Pico did not like the density being over four units per acre and preferred the density reduced with more single family homes on Black Avenue. He was not opposed to the accelerated growth management for this project as long as it does not cause 750 units of growth management approvals per year to be exceeded. Ms. Michelotti stated she was in favor of the land swap. She supports the project as recommended by the Planning Commission (40% FAR) and the one unit on Black Avenue. She would accommodate this project for growth management. Mayor Tarver felt the land swap could give more park to the park area, give up a few units to realign the road differently, and get the project back to four units to the acre. He thought single-story homes at a 50/50 ratio on Black Avenue was appropriate. Ms. Mohr stated the original proposal did not include a land swap with the park. The proposal came from the Park and Recreation Commission. The square footage is almost equal, but the more rectangular nature to the park, rather than having the pan handle at the end, seems to make the land more useable. 10/17/95 -17-
