EXHIBIT J-5 PUD-33, Jennifer Lin, Frederic Lin, and Kevin Lin Review of the Draft Environmental Impact Report for the Oak Grove Planned Unit Development fora 98-lot custom home development and to consider a 51-developable-lot environmentally preferred alternative on a 562-acre property located near the present terminus of Hearst Drive on the southerly sides of the Vintage Heights I and the Grey Eagle Estates developments. Zoning for the property is PUD-RDR/OS (Planned Unit Development -Rural Density ResidentiaVOpen Space) District. Commissioner Blank stepped down from the dais due to a conflict of interest. Ms. Decker introduced Mr. Marion Pavan, Associate Planner and project planner, who will provide an overview of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) process and the project; Mr. Mike Tassano, Acting City Traffic Engineer, who will answer any questions related to traffic, and Mr. Wes Jost, Development Services Manager, Department of Public Works, who will address infrastructure and Public Works issues. She then introduced Ms. Roberta Mundie and Ms. Suzanne Lampert from Mundie & Associates, the City's EIR consultant, who will answer any questions related to the Draft EIR, and Mr. Marty Inderbitzen, who represents the applicant. Ms. Decker stated that the purpose of the meeting is to look at the Draft EIR and provide an opportunity for public comment. Staff's presentation will be followed by a discussion, and Mundie and Associates will then present the sections within the EIR/DEIR for consideration by the Commission. Mr. Pavan indicated that Chief Bill Cody of the Fire Department was also present to speak on fire-related issues pertaining to this project and to the Draft EIR. Mr. Pavan then proceeded to present the staff report, describing the Oak Grove site as a 562-acre parcel surrounded by Vintage Hills II and Grey Eagle Estates along the north side, the Kottinger Ranch neighborhood to the west, the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan area to the north, and unincorporated land to the east and to the southeast. He then noted the neighboring properties on the overhead slides, specifically pointing out the Foley property, the Lund Ranch II property to the southwest; the City's golf course; the City water tank site to the north, where there are a series of emergency vehicle access (EVA) roads; and the Gray Fox/Grey Eagle developments which adjoin the project. Mr. Pavan explained that the primary point of access is through Hearst Drive. He added that the rationale of locating the development in the area is because it poses the least impacts with respect to geology, trees, grading, etc. He noted that the Draft EIR identified several significant impacts which require mitigation, which led to the development of Alternative 4, an environmentally preferred 51-unit alternative, which would eliminate several aspects of the projects that caused the greatest concern from the environmental standpoint. One of these concerns is the fill of a stormwater swale area of approximate 2,000 feet, which was eliminated by pulling lots away from those areas.
