SUBJECT: :
EXPIRATION - FLAMMED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
STATEMENT OF THE MATTER "
As per a recent amendment to the California Government Code, approved
tentative subdivision maps will not expire during the period of a- water or
sewer moratorium. (For a period not to exceed 5 years) . This does not appear
to be a problem and staff ;is keeping track of the expanded expiration dates.
However , the regulation does present a problem with Planned Unit Developments
approved prior to the sewer moratorium but not yet built. Planned Unit
Development permits are approved with . subdivision maps . This means
it is possible for a Planned Unit Development permit to expire but that
the subdivision map be retained. It would be possible that at the end of
the sewer moratorium a developer could final the tract map but not be able
to get building permits because of the expired Planned Unit Development.
The City and the applicant would be forced into new hearings for a resub-
mitted Planned Unit Development plan that for all practical purposes would
have to be approved to the parameters of the tract map.
Staff suggests amending Section 21.45.130 of the Planned Unit Development
reguation to provide that the Planned Unit Development will be on the same
time sequence as the tract map. The basic wording of the State, regulation
would suffice for this amendment.
