ROLL CALL: Councilmen present: Mayor Hyde, Councilmen Egdal~ Gillow, Scott Councilmen absent: Councilman Cox Staff present: City Manager Cole, Assistant City Manager Asmus, City Attorney Lind- berg, Director of Public Works Robens, Director of Planning Peterson 1 WAIVING WEST TO Director of Public Works Robens explained that the staff EAST DEVELOPMENTS has had difficulty in determining what requirements should IN THE EL RANCliO be imposed on developments in this area plus the fact that DEL REY SUBDIVISION developers have gone to Council indicating that the require- ments were not appropriate. When the Specific Plan for E1 Rancho del Rey was adopted, the moratorium in the area ceased. Mr. Robens submitted a sheet entitled "Pertinent Sections of Specific Plan of E1Rancho del Rey" which detailed cer- tain requirements for development. He referred to the staff's written analysis (9/5/78) which recommended avoiding developments which place additional demands for east to west travel in advance of the construction of East H Street. Mr. Robens identified the capacity problems on Telegraph Canyon Road and Otay Lakes Road, north of East H Street. He noted the four SPAS on the map dividing the E1Rancho del Rey Specific Plan area. Recommendation for Rice Canyon, Del Centro, Del Rey and La Pinata: the recom- Area 1 mendation is that no lands within this area be developed prior to the involved developers' submittal of a program for the full construction of East H Street between the easterly limits of the Rice Canyon SPA and Otay Lakes Road. Reimbursement District Director Robens commented that once a program is established for the entire area which could be modified subsequent to the introductions of specific plans. Mr. Robens answered that there would be no way of knowing the total dollar amount and therefore, there would be no way of informing an individual developer of his assessment. A "framework" however, can be worked outSdevelopment has to follow the program. Director Robens continued his presentation noting the bound- ary areas of the four SPAS, developments proposed and in the areas, developments along Otay Lakes Road and the off- site requirements. Sewer problems Mr. Robens noted that some of the areas of the North College District would drain into the Rice Canyon sewer and need to go in that direction; others that drain into the sewer in Otay Lakes Road can go north from there. Staff's policy is that there be no pumping stations - that these stations be temporary and that the homeowners association pay for the ongoing costs of the City's maintaining the pump station. City Council Meeting -2- November 9, 1978 Area 2 Staff's recommendation for Area 2(North College, portion of Parkside and the property on West side of Otay Lakes Road, North of "H" Street): 1. Otay Lakes Road and off- site widening: recommendation by the staff is to continue with the present policy: a project could not be occupied until the offsite widening is completed - along the 1200 feet of Otay Lakes Road. City Manager Cole felt this was an unreasonable require- ment that there ought to be a way of determining the par- ticipation-an agreement providing for a future percentage payment on the cost of the improvements or an outright de- posit, and that the City would eventually make the improve- ments when it decides it should be done. Councilman Scott commented that if the traffic problem is one of peak hours, then staff could work with the school district to stagger the hours. Mr. Robens felt this couldn't be done because the peak hours amount to about three hours a day. He added that the staff is now pre- paring the capital improvement program for next year and they will look at, and do some estimates on, construction in this area. If the Council deems this is an appropriate project, they could take action to fund it. Staff recommendation No. 2 Mr. Robens reported that the North College and a portion of the Parkside SPA conform to the E1Rancho del Rey Specific Plan unless Telegraph Canyon Road, Paseo Ranchero and East "H" Street are constructed. James Fairman Mr. Fairman said he has been working with the staff and representing Gersten feels the general approach presented by them today is a Company good one and they concur. They do have concerns about Areas 3 and 4'indicating that they "should not be nailed down~' -- that the policies should be "flushed out" ~ome more giving the developers more input in what is going on. In Area 2, they have some question of having this left in an undevelopable stage until everythin~ occurs -there should be some variation on that. I Mr. Fairman asked that they be given a couple of weeks to meet and work with staff on these problems prior to any Council action. Carmen Pasquale, Mr. Pasquale agreed with the request to meet with the Vice President Otay staff. If the City adheres to these areas the developers Land Company should have some way to implement the developments in those areas by certain conditions and requirements which must be met, so that they do not have to wait for Area 1 to be developed before beginning construction in Areas 2 and 3: each should be able to stand on its own. Jim Ashbaugh Mr. Ashbaugh noted that the area of his development ties L & L Development in with the land owned by the church. The timing of de- veloping his apartment site with that of the church, along with the complications of getting access through the school property,resolving the problems down to Telegraph Canyon Road with the amount of improvements that would be required to accomplish thiS, seems unrealistic to him. Mr. Robens remarked that the present policy is that no development occur until a program is completed for East "}]" Street unless "this East "H" road goes in." William Leeds Mr. Leeds said he appeared before the Codncil in January L & L Development requesting that their 3-acre site be excluded from the Company planning district. He asked again that his parcel be excluded so that they can begin construction plans. Mayor Hyde reiterated that the policy was one of no de- velopment until the East H Street program is established. City CounCil Meeting -S- November 9, 1978 Motion to accept staff'$ It was moved by May0rHyde and seconded by Councilman ~ecommendation Egdahl that the recommendations imposed by the staff be accepted at this time. Mr. Pasquale said that they do not disagree with the staff's- Codntinuation asked recommendations but asked for time't6 meet with them and discuss these matters. Council discussion Councilman Scott felt the motion was premature and that nothing would belost be continuing the matter. Councilman Egdahl suggested the motion be changed to state ' that the reqommendations "be referred back, with the Coun- cil*s concurrence, to a staff and developer conference to be reported back to the Council with any changes." Wording of motion changed Mayor Hyde modified his motion to change the word "accepted' to "acceptable" for the 'first two recommendations presented: the staff: (offsite widening of.
