ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
5-1
7/14/09, Item '~
Page 2 of 3
The Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a
"Project" as defined under Section 15378(b)(4) of the State CEQA Guidelines, because this action
involves a governmental fiscal activity utilizing previously authorized funds, which will not result
in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section
15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no
environmental review is necessary.
RECOMMENDATION
Council approves the Resolutions.
BOARDS/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION
The Bella Lago Subdivision, located just east of Rolling Hills Ranch, north of Proctor Valley Road,
is required to dedicate certain lands to the US Fish and Wildlife Service as a condition of
development. The Fish and Wildlife Service require that all lands offered for dedication be free and
clear of any encumbrances. Tonight's action will amend the following agreements recorded against
the Bella Lago project to detach them from lot "G", the azea to be dedicated to the US Fish and
Wildlife Service as preserve lands.
• The Bella Lago Basin Maintenance, Grading Mitigation, and Erosion, Sedimentation and
NPDES Compliance Agreement dated June 14, 2005, and recorded July 28, 2005 as
document no. 2005-0640362 of Official Records of the San Diego County Recorder. This
agreement sets forth the developer's obligation to maintain the project during the build out
period.
• The Grant of Easements, License & Maintenance Agreement dated May 10, 2006, and
recorded May 10, 2006 as document no. 2006-0331345 of Official Records of the San Diego
County Recorder. This agreement sets for the HOA's requirements to maintain certain azeas
within the public right of way.
• The Subdivision Improvement Agreement approved by Resolution 2006-108 on April 11,
2006. This agreement sets forth the developer's obligation to construct the public
infrastructure associated with the project.
In addition to the detachment of Lot "G", the developer has requested that the term of the
Subdivision Improvement Agreement be extended for a period of two yeazs to complete the
partially improved project. The completion date is June 1, 2011 under this amended agreement and
will provide the developer some relief during this economic downturn.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found no property holdings
within 500 feet of the boundaries of the property, which is the subject of this action.
