RESOLUTION~"App~roving tentative map of Southwestern College Estates Subdivision,
Units 5, 6 and 7
Planning Director Warren reviewed in detail the conditions set forth by
the Planning Commission in recorznending approval of this development. A letter
was submitted from the Gersten Construction Company requesting that the develop-
ment not be approved until a proper street pattern, giving them access to their
adjacent land, can be worked out.
Since there are some problems to be worked out, it was moved by Councilman
Scott, and seconded by Councilman Hobel that the matter be held over two weeks.
Mr. Richard Kelton, representing Bollenbacher & Kelton, Inc., spoke against
continuing the matter and urged approval of the tentative map with the reservation
that provision for access to the Gersten property will be made on the final map if
access is found to be necessary.
Mr. C. R. Pasquale, representing the Gersten Construction Company, stated
he would withdraw the objection referred to in his letter to the Council if the
tentative map is approved, subject to provision being made for access to his prop-
erty if it is found necessary at the time the final map is considered.
The motion of Councilman Scott failed to carry with all Councilmen voting
no.
Mr. Kelton expressed opposition to Planning Cormnission condition No. 1,
whereby Unit No. 8 shall be incorporated into Unit No. 7, which has been approved
for a mobile park. Because of topography, Unit No. 8 was considered undesirable
for mobile home park purposes. Mr. Kelton was assured that he has the opportunity
to come in at any time with a plan for rezoning Unit No. 8 and that it does not
necessarily have to be used for a mobile home park.
Mr. Kelton also expressed opposition to Planning Commission condition No.
5 requiring "T" type driveways for all houses using Acacia Avenue for access.
City Attorney Lindberg suggested that the resolution be amended to the
effect that the issue of providing access from Unit No. 6 to the adjacent property
located to the southwest shall be determined by the staff within 30 days in accord-
ance with the needs of the City, prior to submission of the final map.
