SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF SUBDIVIS ION IMPROVEMENTS FOR TRACT 2353-1,
TRACT 2353-2, PRADO SEGMENT D AND PRADO SEGMENT E
(408 PRADO ROAD, TR 120-13)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution accepting the public improvements, certifying completion of the required private
subdivision improvements, and authorizing release of securities for Tract 2353-1, Tract 2353-2,
Prado Segment D and Prado Segment E at 408 Prado.
DISCUSSION
Background
Tract 2353 (TR 120-13) is located at 408 Prado Road (Attachment A). A vesting tentative map
for Tract 2353 was originally approved by the City Council on March 7, 2006, by Resolution
No. 9777 (2006 Series). A modified tentative map and revised conditions that superseded the
previous map and conditions were approved by Council on April 15, 2014, by Resolution No.
10512 (2014 Series). The final map for the first phase of Tract 2353, Tract 2353-1, was approved
by Council on July 1, 2014, by Resolution No. 10541 (2014 Series) (Attachment B).
Tract 2353-1 created three business park lots, three common area lots, and 76 single family
residential lots. The second and final phase of Tract 2353, Tract 2353-2, was approved by
Council on May 5, 2015 by Resolution No. 10612 (2015 Series) (Attachment C). Tract 2353-2
created three business park lots, one common area lot, 47 single family residential lots, and one
lot for affordable housing.
Subdivision Improvements
The public improvements for Tract 2353 include the improvements within the subdivision
(public streets, curb, gutter, sidewalks, drive approaches, curb ramps at the intersections, street
lights, water and sewer mains in the public streets, storm drain lines in the public streets, water
mains in the private alleys, fire hydrants, water services to the meter) and the Prado Road
Segment D and E improvements. Prado Segment D is that portion of Prado Road that fronts
Tract 2353-1. Segment E is that portion that fronts Tract 2353 -2. The public improvements also
include off-site restriping of a southbound left turn lane and installation of pedestrian countdown
heads at the South Higuera/Prado intersection.
Private improvements for Tract 2353 include all of the private alleys serving the commercial and
residential units, sewer mains in the private alleys, sewer laterals, water services beyond the
meter, storm drain lines in the private alleys, the frontage landscaping along Prado Road and all
the other lots, and the bike paths in the HOA-owned lots. Maintenance of the private facilities are
set forth in the CC&R’s for the Homeowner’s Association, the Business Park Association, and
the shared private maintenance agreements that were recorded for the subdivision.

Accepting the Public Improvements and Certifying Completion of Private Improvements
The subdivider has requested final acceptance of the Tract 2353 and Prado Road subdivision
improvements by the City and release of the underlying securities for such improvements. The
Subdivision Agreement authorizes release of the Faithful Performance and Labor & Materials
securities upon Council’s acceptance of the subdivision improvements and receipt of a guarantee
of ten percent of the cost of the subdivision improvements. The ten-percent guarantee is to
insure that the subdivider will remedy any defects in the improvements arising from faulty
workmanship or materials or defective construction of said improvements for a period of one
year. The ten-percent security will also function as a faithful performance security to ensure that
any remaining minor improvements are completed, such as a new irrigation controller for Prado
Road, record drawings for all of the improvements are submitted and approved, and that the
required documentation verifying construction costs of Prado Segments D and E is submitted
and approved pursuant to the “Reimbursement and Impact Fee Credit Agreement for Prado Road
Extension Costs” approved by Council on April 15, 2014.
A draft resolution Accepting and Certifying Completion of the Subdivision Improvements is
attached (Attachment D). This resolution authorizes the Public Works Director to release the
faithful performance securities, and to release the warranty securities upon satisfactory
completion of the one-year warranty period and submittal of the record drawings and Prado cost
documentation.
CONCURRENCES
The Public Works Department and Utilities Department concur with the recommended action.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The necessary findings and environmental review requirements related to the development of
Tract 2353 and Prado Road were made with the tentative map approval. Therefore, no further
environmental review is required.
FISCAL IMPACT
The public improvements constructed with Tract 2353 and Prado Road will result in an increase in
maintenance costs for the streets improvements, street lights, water mains, sewer mains, water
services, and public landscaping. At this time, the Public Works Department Streets Division and
the Utilities Department Water and Wastewater Divisions will not need additional resources to
maintain this new public infrastructure. However, cumulative increases in infrastructure eventually
require additional resources to maintain. When required, these additional resources would be
requested as part of the Financial Plan process, consistent with City policy. Nonetheless, a fiscal
analysis of the Margarita Area Specific Plan area demonstrated that sufficient revenues would be
provided on a per capita basis to fund the incremental increases in service costs to the City of San
Luis Obispo.
Although the City is responsible for maintaining the landscaping in the Prado Road median, the
subdivider has elected to have a single water meter serve both the frontage landscaping along

8
Prado Road, which is maintained by the Business Park Association, and the median landscaping.
This option was proposed by the subdivider so they could avoid paying a water impact fee for an
additional meter. The responsibility for the median irrigation is included in the CC&R’s for the
Business Park Association, so the City has recourse if the median is not properly irrigated. If in
the future the subdivider or another entity, such as the Business Park Association, provides the
City with a separate water meter and makes the necessary connections, the City will be
responsible for the irrigation costs for the Prado Road median.
ALTERNATIVES
Do not accept the public improvements or certify completion of the private improvements for
Tract 2353 and Prado Road. If some of the required subdivision improvements for Tract 2353
and Prado Road have not been completed, then Council can continue this item until such time as
the improvements have been completed to the satisfaction of the City. Staff does not recommend
this alternative because the subdivision improvements for Tract 2353 and Prado Road have been
completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.
