CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA RESOLUTION NO. 82-367 A RESOLUTION ADOPTING A POLICY FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL LAPSING PROVISIONS OF THE RESIDENTIAL ALLOCATION PROGRAM (RAP) WHEREAS, many projects which have received development approval under the provisions of the RAP ordinance have not proceeded far enough, as yet, with their development projects to avoid the lapsing of development approval in mid-1983, due primarily to the economic conditions existing over the last several years which have contributed to the nation- wide slump in new housing construction; and WHEREAS, recognizing past economic conditions, the City Council wishes to adopt a uniform, unambiguous policy with respect to the lapsing of RAP development approval which is (i) capable of being met by developers both still wanting to develop and having made good faith ascertainable progress toward complete development, and (ii) meets the goals of the City in achieving timely growth; NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS: Section 1: Projects meeting the requirements of Section 2- 20.14 of Ordinance No. 849, as it existed at the time the project received RAP development approval, shall not have their RAP development approval lapse. These require the following: for projects receiving a single approval: commencement of construction on at least one building within the project; and for projects which received several separate approvals or a single, phased approval: for the first approval or phase: commencement of construction on at least one building within the approved portion of the project. for all subsequent approvals or phases: commencement of construction on all units in prior approvals or phases plus commencement of construction on at least one unit within the subsequent approval or phase.
