STAFF REPORT ' /^
DATE: December 10, 1980
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Planning Department
SUBJECT: CT 79-25(A) - (RANCHEROS) LA COSTA LAND COMPANY -
An amendment to an approved 99 unit tentative
tract map relating to phasing and street
dedication and improvements located on the east
side of El Fuerte Road, south of Alga Road extended
in the P-C zone.
I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
The applicant requests an amendment to an approved 99 unit
tentative tract map to change the order of phasing and change
the timing of street dedication and improvements of Corintia
Street. The first modification would simply switch Phases
I and IV so that development would first occur in the north-
west portion of the site adjacent to. Alga Road and El Fuerte.
The second modification would revise former Condition No. 19
(new Condition No. 20) to provide for the dedication and
improvement of Corintia Street concurrent with adjacent
phases of the tentative map. Presently, the applicant is
required to dedicate and improve the entire length of
Corintia concurrent with Phase 1.
As the Planning Commission will recall, this item was considered
at the Commission meeting of October 22, 1930, as an information
item. At that time, staff was recommending that the Commission
find the changes to be minor in nature and direct staff to
administratively revise the file. Attached is the staff
report indicating staff's reasons for this recommendation.
At the public hearing, the City Attorney's Office advised
the Commission that the requested changes would require an
amendment and new public hearing, hence, the item is before
you tonight as an advertised public hearing.
II. ANALYSIS
As detailed in the attached staff report, dated October 22,
1980, staff feels both requests are reasonable and desirable
from a planning point of view. First, the relocation of
Phase 1 to the northwest portion of the map would provide
for more orderly development of the site from existing
developed areas. Second, the improvement of Corintia Street
concurrent with the^first pha_se__is no longer nece_ssary ~grvgn
thejextension of Alga Road "and Melrose Avenue (conditions "
of Approval of the Meadowbrook and Hidden Meadows projects)
____i^ to Rancho Santa Fe Rc-ad. The revisions
originalconditions of approval are indicated in the
attached resolution. Overall, staff concurs with this request
and is recommending approval of the amendment.
III. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The subject property was considered as part of a master
environmental impact report for the La Costa Master Plan
(EIR 307) . Also, supplemental information relating to
detailed environmental concerns was submitted as part of the
original tentative map. The Planning Director has found
that the available information adequately addresses all
environmental concerns and therefore has issued a Notice
of Prior Environmental Compliance on Nov.. 17, .1980 . A copy
of the previous Environmental Impact Report is available
for review in the Planning Department and will also be
available at the Planning Commission meeting should anyone
wish to review it.
IV- RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Planning Commission ADOPT
Resolution No. 1734, recommending APPROVAL of CT 79-25(A)
to the City Council based on the findings and conditions
contained therein.
