SUBJECT: CT 94-08 - "B-1" FINAL MAP PROCESSING AND CONDO PERMIT
AMENDMENT
Staff has reviewed your request to consider the ability to process a condominium permit
amendment for B-1 while the existing tentative map approval proceeds on to final map
and improvement plan approval. It is staffs understanding that the project applicants
wish to process a substantial conformance request with the Engineering and Planning
Departments for the existing tentative map approval of CT 94-08. Therefore, the
comments made below about processing final map approvals while a condo permit
amendment is underway are only valid if the Engineering and Planning Departments
approve the upcoming substantial conformance request.
Be advised that the substantial conformance request will be rejected by staff if it fails to
meet the standard substantial conformance review, including but not limited to: phasing
will not be allowed; finalized grading must meet Engineering's substantial conformance
criteria/review, and; the full scope of required improvements must be delivered.
CT 94-08 can go on to receive final map approval while a condominium permit
amendment is in process subject to the following provisions:
1. The upcoming substantial conformance request for the existing, approved
tentative map is approved by the Engineering and Planning Departments.
2. No phasing is proposed to the satisfaction of the Engineering Department.
3. No changes to streets, grading or other infrastructure elements except those
changes approved as part of a substantial conformance request.
4. While the proposed amendment to B-1 initially appears to be minor in nature, this
review effort will not function to make the determination that the proposed B-1
condo permit amendment is major or minor in nature. That determination will be
made when the project makes a formal submittal by the applicant to consider the
amendment as part of the on-going processing of CP 94-01 (A) which is currently

incomplete. Nevertheless, the ability to process final map approval while a
condo permit amendment is in process per the criteria outlined in this
correspondence is not dependent on the condominium permit amendment being
major or minor in nature.
5. B-1 was approved as, and shall remain, a single planning area unless a major
amendment is submitted to alter planning area boundaries. Therefore, only one
Homeowners Association will be allowed with only one set of CC&Rs to be
associated with B-1's final map. Also, there will not be a doubling of allowances
for B-1 with respect to model homes/complexes. The final map process must
treat Area B-1 as the single phase planning area that it is (one set of
improvement plans, landscape plans, one HOA, one set of CC&Rs, one
actualization of the model home allowance).
This should clearly outline the manner in which the City would be able to proceed with
the final map approval of CT 94-08 while an amendment to CP 94-01 (CP 94-01 (A)) is
concurrently under amendment.
If you have any questions, I can be reached at 438-1161, extension 4441.
