TO: CITY COUNCIL
F£!')M: ACTING CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: Initial Occupancy of Houses in New Subdivisions
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a motion approving the present administrative
policy regarding occupancy in new ~ubdivisions as
the Official City Policy.
DISCUSSION:
The City h9s recently received several requests to permit
occupancy of homes in new subdivisions prior to completion of
public improvements. In order to clarify the City's position,
it appears that a statement of policy by the City Council
would be in order. The administrative policy at present is
not to allow occupancy until:
l. The house has been completed and approved by the Building
Departme.-nt,
2.
3.
The permanent sewer and water systems serving the house
have been completed and have passed the required
acceptance tests, and
The streets connecting the particular house with a street
outside the subdivision have been paved.
This policy was developed after discussion with developers
concerning the practical considerations of heavy construction
in an inhabited area and upon the advice of the City Attorney
regarding City liability in case of accident or fire.
The policy is essentially identical to that followed by
the City of Oceanside which has found it to be reasonable and
prudent.
