RECESS The Mayor declared a 15-minute recess at 8: 45 p.m. The Council reconvened at 9 :00 p.m. with the same Council members present. FURTHER INTERIM DEVELOPMENT Council discussed with the Planning CASES Advisor the various other applications that have been filed for interim development permits. It was suggested that an overview of the total situation could be obtained when the aerial photograph being made by Mr. Derr is available and also from the house numbering maps . It was noted by Councilman Dyda that the main concern should be with the undeveloped properties on the peri- meters which might have an effect on the General Plan rather than on the lots within already developed tracts . PARCEL MAP 3542 A three lot division of land at 1410 28451 Headland Drive was described by Planning Advisor Dick Anderson, who reviewed the action of the County' s previous approval with con- ditions and then the action of the Planning Advisory Committee taken at its meeting of December 11, 1973 , wherein the Committee recom- mended approval subject to conditions . Council received from the Planning Advisory Committee a "Work Ses- sion Informational Report" dated December 11, 1973 , a memorandum from the Planning Advisory Chairman outlining the conditions of approval on the parcel map, and a letter in opposition to the map from Tommy Sears Corporation. The Planning Advisor then informed the City Council that the engineer for the applicant had submitted a revised map to comply with the net square foot area requirement condition of the Planning Committee, but which would change the lot division to four lots rather than three. The applicant, Mr. Hutchinson, explained the revised map had been prepared indicating his attempt to buy a 2-1/2 foot strip of land from an adjacent owner in order to meet the 500 additional net square footage required by the Planning Committee condition. He explained further that the opposition previously expressed by petition from residents of Cayuse Lane had been withdrawn. Mr. Hutchinson objected to the condition requiring horse trail easements. Joyce Rabinov, #2 Surrey Lane, spoke in favor of the map application. Paul Ander- son, 35 Deerhill of Rolling Hills Estates , expressed concern that the development would cause additional runoff of water to his property. Council discussed with the Planning Advisor and the City Attorney the possible alternative actions , and it was noted by Councilman Buerk Council 73-069 Dec. 18, 1973 that if the 500 square foot shortage of the net required were spread over the three lots rather than one, it would not appear to be a major modification, but that it would not be desirable to set a precedent. A motion by Councilman Ryan, seconded by Mayor Ryan, that the City Council refer the parcel map back to the Planning Advisory Committee, was adopted with Councilman Buerk voting "No. " The Mayor commented that it was not the intent of the City Council that the Planning Advisory Committee go over the application completely again, but only the effect of its having less than the area required and that action on the map should be taken as quickly as possible. ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT Council received a recommendation 310 from the Planning Advisory Committee that an ordinance be prepared effectu- ating procedures for implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act. It was agreed by the City Council that the City Manager and the City Attorney should study the proposed enactment and bring back to the City Council, at a future meeting, a draft of an ordinance and the administrative procedures that would be involved. NARBONNE STREET Council received a recommendation from NAME CHANGE the Planning Advisory Committee to 1406 approve the street name change requested by the residents on Narbonne Street to Sol Vista Lane. On motion of Councilman Buerk, seconded by Council- man Ryan, the staff was ordered to proceed with the next step in the requirement. TIME EXTENSIONS - On motion of Councilman Dyda, seconded LAND DIVISIONS by Councilman Ruth , the City Council 1410 x 1411 approved a 45-day extension of time on Parcel Map 3876 and a 2-week exten- sion of time on Tentative Tract 32046 . HEALTH OFFICERS REPORT - A report from the County Health Officer UNSEWERED AREAS regarding the unsewered areas in the 1402 city was held over for presentation at the January 15th meeting, and it was requested that a representative of the Health Department be at that meeting. IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT Mr. Martin Murphy, representing the PROCEDURES City Engineer, presented a report to 901 the City Council regarding alternative procedures for improvement districts under the 1911 and 1913 Acts.
