ISSUES REVIEW
Engineering Department staff has completed a review of the above-referenced project for
engineering issues of concern. Engineering issues which need to be resolved or adequately
addressed prior to staff making a determination on the proposed project are as follows:
1. The applicant will be responsible for constructing driveway access for the Saska Parcel
(Assessor Parcel 215-050-07) from Skimmer Court. A condition will be added to the
approving resolution requiring such improvements. The applicant will also be responsible
for establishing "relinquishment of access rights" from the Saska Parcel to Poinsettia Lane.
2. On the tentative tract map and site development plan:
a) remove reference to "Lots 1-73" under "Typical Lot Drainage/Typical Lateral
Locations".
b) add boundary lines for the Saska Parcel.
3. Because the Lohf Subdivision final tract map (CT 97-15) will most likely record prior to this
subdivision receiving tentative tract map approval, revisions may need to be made to
references on the tentative tract map and site development plan. The "proposed
subdivision boundary" and "remainder parcel" will no longer be defined as the boundaries of
Parcel 2 of Parcel Map 2244 (APN 215-050-59). It appears that the remainder parcel will
only consist of Lot 67 and 68 of CT 97-15. These revisions will be necessary in the event
that CT 97-15 records prior to this subdivision receiving tentative map approval. The legal
description on the map would also need to be revised.
4. Since Lots 67, 68 and 74 are a part of the subdivision, an adjustment plat will not be
necessary. The repositioning of the lot lines can be accomplished via the tentative tract
map.
5. Rather than dedicate a 20 foot wide access and utility easement on a portion of Lot 3 and 4
for the benefit of the Saska Parcel, extend the cul-de-sac and accompanying public right-of-
way onto the Saska Parcel to provide at least 20 feet of public street frontage. Indicate with
a note that an off-site easement for public access and utility will be obtained by separate
document.
6. A 36 foot wide curb-to-curb cul-de-sac cannot exceed 600 feet in length unless
authorization is given by the City Fire Department. The length of the proposed cul-de-sac is
approximately 900 feet measured from the point of access at the intersection of Poinsettia
Lane and Skimmer Court to the end of the cul-de-sac. In no case may a 36 foot wide curb-
to-curb cul-de-sac street exceed 1,200 feet in length. Verification is needed from the Fire
Department.
7. Footings of houses must be seven horizontal feet from the outside edge of footing to the
face of slope in accordance with Section 8.4 of the "Lohf Property Preliminary Geotechnical
Study." This study applies per reference in the addendum geotechnical study for the
Steiner Property. It appears that several lots do not comply with this requirement.
8. The driveway widths for the single garages on Lots 1, 5 and 9 must have a minimum width
of 12 feet measured at the property line. The proposed driveways are approximately 8.5
feet wide.
9. A covenant of easement will need to be processed for acceptance of drainage on Lots 1
and 2 of this proposed subdivision and Lot 68 of the Lohf Subdivision. These lots are
subject to drainage flowing across a swale located at the top of the proposed slopes on
these lots and Lot 3 of this map. A condition requiring dedication by separate document will
be added to the approving resolution.
10. Improvements for Poinsettia Lane along the property frontage will be required. A condition
will be added to the approving resolution.
11. Illustrate the feasibility for sewer connection for the Saska Property. How is the Saska
Property currently serviced? Is it connected to the public sewer system or septic system?
If you or the applicant have any questions, please either see or contact me at extension 4324.
