C council 08/17/10 acEnba nEpoat 1�Num6w C I TY OF SAN L U IS OBISPO FROM: Jay D. Walter, PE-Director of Public Work 0� Prepared by: Diane Dostalek/Hal Hannula SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF THE FINAL MAP AND FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENTS FOR TRACT 2954, 225 N. CHORRO (TR/ER 135-07) RECOMMENDATION 1. Adopt a resolution approving the Final Map for Tract 2954 (225 N. Chorro) and authorizing the Mayor to execute the subdivision agreement on behalf of the City;and 2. Adopt a resolution accepting the public improvements and certifying completion of the required private subdivision improvements for Tract 2954.. DISCUSSION Approving the Final Map As part of the project at 225 North Chorro, a tentative map for Tract.2954 (TR/ER 135-07) (see Attachment 1 for vicinity map) was approved by the City Council on January 22, 2008, by Resolution No. 9951 (2008 Series) (Attachment 2). This tentative map authorized the creation of a one lot subdivision for the purpose of creating twelve residential condominium units. Per Section 16.10.150, tentative maps shall expire twenty-four (24) months from the date of approval. However; per California Senate Bill 1185 approved July 15, 2008, all tentative maps that had not expired as of July 15, 2008, and will expire before January 1, 2011, have been automatically extended by twelve (12) months from their expiration date. Therefore, the new expiration date of the tentative map is January 22, 2011, and the final map can be approved and recorded without processing a new tentative map. Section 66474.1 of the Subdivision Map Act states that "a Legislative body shall not deny approval of a final or parcel map if it has previously approved a tentative map for the proposed subdivision and if it finds that the final or parcel map is in substantial compliance with the previously approved tentative map." The final map has been found to be in substantial conformance with the approved tentative map and all conditions related to the map have been met and/or guaranteed with appropriate sureties. No further discretionary approvals are required. The resolution approving the final map (Attachment 3) also authorizes the Mayor to sign the Subdivision Agreement. cy Council Agenda Report-Fit w'Map Approval -Tract 2954 Page 2 Accepting the Public Improvements and Certifying Completion of Private Improvements Public improvements for this project include installation of sidewalk, driveway aprons, and utility service laterals located within the public rights-of-way.

The total estimated cost of the public and private improvements is $309,022. The public and private subdivision improvements have been completed to the satisfaction of the City. A security in the amount of$30,900, or 10 percent of the estimated construction cost, has been collected to guarantee that the subdivider will remedy any defects in the improvements arising from faulty workmanship or materials or defective construction of said improvements occurring within 12 months after subdivision acceptance, in accordance with Sections 66499.7 and 66499.9 of the Government Code of the State of California. The 12-month warranty period shall begin on the date of Council approval of the Resolution accepting the public improvements and certifying completion of the private improvements (Attachment 4). CONCURRENCES The Community Development Director and Utilities Director concur with the recommended action. FISCAL IMPACT Typical maintenance and operation of public facilities will be required for the water service laterals. ATTACHMENTS 1. Vicinity Map 2. Resolution No. 9951 (2008 Series) 3.

The City Council makes the following findings: 1. The design of the tentative tract map is consistent with the General Plan because the proposed subdivision respects existing site constraints,.will incrementally add to the City's residential housing inventory,result in condominium unts that meet density standards, and will be consistent with the density and development limits established by the High Density Residential District. 2. The site is physically suited for the proposed type of development allowed in the R4 zones since the site is generally flat, surrounded by existing high density residential development and close to parks, schools and transit services. 3. The design of the subdivision will not conflict with easements for access through (or use of property within) the proposed subdivision. 4. The design of the tentative tract map and proposed improvements are not likely to cause serious health problems, substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat because the site does not have any creeks or other potentially significant habitat areas for fish and wildlife. The site is surrounded by urban development.and has been previously developed with multi-family residential units. 5. A Negative Declaration was prepared by the Community Development Department on November 14, 2007. The City Council finds and determines that the project's Negative Declaration R 9951 cy-� Attachment 2 Resolution No. 9951 (2008 Series) Page 2 adequately addresses the potential significant environmental impacts of the proposed project. SECTION 2. Action. The City Council hereby adopts the Negative Declaration and approves the Tentative Tract Map for 12 residential units at 225 North Chorro Street subject to the following conditions: Conditions: 1. The applicant shall construct the project so as to substantially conform to plans stamped with Community Development Department approval and incorporate conditions listed herein. Any change to approved design, colors, materials, landscaping or other conditions of approval must be approved by the Community Development Director and may at the discretion of the Director, have to be referred back to the Architectural Review Commission. 2. Final building plan sets released to the builder/contractor shall contain clear and legible notes that no changes (even for minor exterior details) from building plan sets shall occur without prior permission from Brian Leveille, City of San Luis Obispo, staff Planner,or the Community Development Director, as required. 3. Construction plan sets shall include conditions of approval from all project approvals (ARC/MS 135-07) for contractor/builder reference. 4. All ducts,meters, air conditioning equipment and all other mechanical equipment, whether on the ground, on the structure or elsewhere, shall be screened from public view with materials architecturally compatible with the main structure. Public view includes the existing views from all public streets and sidewalks. Gas and electric meters,electric transformers, and large water piping systems (backflow prevention devices) shall be completely screened from public view with approved architectural features and/or landscape plantings and/or placed on the interior of the structure. 5. Backflow prevention devices, fire department connections or other similar devices that are not shown on the plans approved by the Architectural Review Commission shall be approved by the Planning Department prior to placement on the site. If located within the street yard, such devices shall be screened by landscape walls or landscape shrubs and painted a flat green color. 6. The Hydrology Report shall further address the drainage to be discharged to the westerly property line. Although the amount of run-off in the design storms has been reduced,there appears to be an existing problem with silt draining onto the adjacent property. The drainage plan shall consider the possibility of relocating the westerly parking lot drainage inlet to allow the open space lawn area to provide the maximum opportunity to accept drainage and sediment. The applicant shall also notify the neighboring property owner of his intention to continue to discharge water through a weir in the retaining wall. �y� - Attachment 2 Resolution No. 9951 (2008 Series) Page 3 7. The subdivider shall dedicate a 6' wide public utility easement and a 10' wide street tree easement across the frontage of each lot. Said easements shall be adjacent to and contiguous with all public right-of-way lines bordering each lot. 8. Long term bicycle parking spaces in the garage shall include a device for securing bicycle against the wall. 9. New oak trees shall be planted at a replacement rate of 5:1 at an off-site location to be approved by the Natural Resources Manager. In addition to replacement trees, at least one of the required street trees planted for the project shall be a Coast Live Oak. 10. Construction plans shall be modified to provide three full size.guest parking spaces. 11.The subdivider shall prepare conditions,covenants, and restrictions (CC&R's)to be approved by the Community Development Director and the City Attorney prior to final map approval. CC&R's shall contain the following provisions: a. Creation of a homeowners'association to enforce the CC&R's and provide for professional, perpetual maintenance of all common areas including private driveways, drainage, on-site sewer facilities, parking lot areas, walls and fences,lighting, and landscaping. b. Grant to the city the right to maintain common areas if the homeowners'association fails to perform, and to assess the homeowners' association for expenses incurred,and the right of the city to inspect the site at mutually agreed times to assure conditions of CC&R's and final map are being met. c. No parking except in approved, designated spaces. d. Grant to the city the right to tow away vehicles on a complaint basis which are parked in unauthorized places. e. No outdoor storage of boats,campers,motorhomes,or trailers nor long-term storage of inoperable vehicles. f. No outdoor storage by individual units except in designated storage areas. g. No change in City-required provisions of the CC&R's without prior City Attorney approval. h. Homeowners' association shall file with the City Clerk the names and addresses of all officers of the homeowners'association within 15 days of any change in officers of the association. i. Provision of appropriate "no parking" signs and red-curbing along interior roadways as required by the City Fire Department. j.
