Councilmember Butler stated he supports phased development but without absolute guarantee; only a commitment to count points over a period of years. It was moved by Councilmember Butler, and seconded by Councilmember Mercer, approving staff recommendation 7(a)'(1) as follows: To aid larger projects in developing in a more appropriate and a more certain manner, it is recommended that single-family projects up to 150 units in size be allowed to submit their full 150 unit project for the purpose of RAP selection in each of 3 years (thus, allowing the counting of major improvement, etc., over the three year period) sub- ject to receiving RAP approval in each of the 3 years and of limiting actual development to 50 units/year and of constructing the major im- prov~nents, if any, in the first year of construction. Large multiple projects could submit a project up to 150 units in size,' again subject to the 50 unit/year limitation but would enjoy a 5 point bonus in the second and third years' applications (thus-increasing the certainty of subsequent years' approval). In both of the above, projects would be required to reapply to RAP approval each year. This mechanism would be accomplished by the following: a) Amend the Ordinance to allow projects up to 150 units in size to be submitted for review, delineating 3 phases of development of no more than 50 units/year, and requiring the following: 1) for single-family projects: allow the 3-year sized project to be counted for purposes of the RAP ranking in each of the 3 years so long as any major linkages and/or improvements are built the first year and building actually takes place in each year. After considerable discussion, Councilmember Mercer withdrew his second to this motion. The motion died for lack of a second. After further discussion, it was moved by ~ayor Brandes, and seconded by Councilmember Mercer, tO allow assured phasing for three years (50-50-50), that capital improvements be built during the first phase, that such phasing comply with the 18 month provision that now exists in RAP, that the total mount of units in projects having assured phasing in any year be limited to 150, and that filing of tentative maps for up to a full 3 year sized project be allowed. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmen Butler, Kephart, Mercer, and Mayor Brandes NOES: None ABSENT: Councilman Wood Councilmember Butler stated he voted for this motion because he felt phasing approval is important. It was moved by Mayor Brandes, and seconded by Councilmember Mercer, that additional points be given under RAP for large lot development as follows: 7,500 sq. ft. min. lot size - 2 points 10,000 sq. ft. min. lot size - 4 points 12,000 sq. ft. min. lot size' - 6 points 4. 8/1/79
