193 Mr. Butler stated that Staff has recommended that the water issue be considered on a City-wide, rather than on a project, basis and that Staff would propose solutions that would require all developers to help improve the water supply or reduce water usage. Mr. Tarver also indicated that he wanted to change Recommendation D to shorten E Court so no houses would be visible above the ridgeline, and that, pursuant to an earlier request, he would like to increase the setback of Lot 50 by ten feet. It was moved by Mr. Tarver, and seconded by Ms. Scribner, to amend Mr. Butler's motion to include shortening E Court and increasing the setback of Lot 50 by ten feet. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers Mohr, Scribner and Tarver NOES: Councilmember Butler and Mayor Mercer ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None A vote was then taken on Mr. Butler's motion to approve Staff Recommendations B through M, with the amendment that E Court be shortened and the setback of Lot 50 be increased by ten feet. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers Butler, Mohr, Tarver and Mayor Mercer NOES: Councilmember Scribner ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Ms. Scribner inquired if the ridges between G, K and L Court would be eliminated by the homes to be built in those courts. Mr. Swift replied that the area between K and L Courts would be filled to the point where the houses on the courts would be facing one other directly across what would now appear to be an open space. The hillsides would remain exactly the way they are now as they come down the Ridge. On the other hand, the houses on G and L Courts will not be facing one another over the ridge between the courts. Ms. Acosta requested Council to indicate its preference with respect to the issue on open space so Staff can prepare a more comprehensive report on the matter. Mr. Mercer indicated that he would like the City, rather than the homeowners association or the developer, to control the open space. - 17 - 5-21-91
