RECOMMENDATION
Continue the public hearing on the proposed application package to June 5,2012,to
allow the applicant an opportunity to address geotechnical issues raised by the City
Geologist related to the project's proposed septic system.
DISCUSSION
This matter involves a property owner's request for the relocation of a land use and zoning
boundary line and construction of a new home on a vacant lot located at 10 Chaparral
Lane.The application package was presented to the Planning Commission on February
28,2012.At that time,the Planning Commission recommended approval of the
application.Because a General Plan Amendment and Zone Change is involved,the
Planning Commission's role is solely advisory and the decision on the application must be
rendered by the City Council.Thus,a public notice informing the public of the Council's
consideration of this item on April 1i h was duly published.In preparing the City Council
2-2
Staff Report for the item,an issue was raised by Staff in response to information provided
by the applicant to the Planning Commission related to a proposed septic system for the
new residence.Staff discussed the issue with the City Geologist,who noted that additional
information about the proposed septic system is needed at this time.As such,Staff is
recommending that the City Council continue the public hearing to June 5,2012.The
applicant is in agreement with Staff's continuance recommendation.Interested parties
have also been notified of this continuance recommendation.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Since the February 28,2012 Planning Commission hearing on this item,Staff received
correspondence from three separate neighbors related to the proposed project.These
letters and emails will be attached to and/or addressed in the June 5th Staff Report.
